... in check with the rules and regulations that he has set. These thoughts today would be looked at as dictatorial and likened with the beliefs and felling of such hated groups as the Nazis.

It seems that these days the general populace have much less tolerance for those rulers that believe in doing anything for the sake of themselves and supposedly the society at large.

His shoes were too big and his hat was too small, He just wasn't, just wasn't funny at all. He had a trombone to play loud silly tunes, He had a green dog and a thousand balloons. He was floppy and sloppy and skinny and tall, But he just wasn't, just wasn't funny at all. And every time he did a trick, Everyone felt a little sick.
