Well, I don't know, but I done heard Of a DAISY doctor, expert with the word Just wrapped up, being’ chair ya see Now she’s got a bit more time for me And her, and him, and you and you She done shovlin’ admin poo! Start-of-year angst spreadin' ‘round Summer’s quiet, now fillin’ wit’ sound Next cat herder is takin’ up the Reins For all them stresses and the strains Dr Daisy’s coming back as you can see Back to you and you, and you and me. Admin proffered up some maps Claimed would unlock enrollment caps But just like crazies on right and left Magical thinking’ lacks intellect’s heft These here folks drove her out The fools done squandered her expert’s clout.

Now a FULL Professor, right as can be Her name plate’s updated for all to see Only Anderson to craft a Master’s plan First in the fam to running a grad program Still helpin’ others up the rungs of life Easin’ them thru behind-the-scenes strife. Few MPPs appreciated the Daisiness Even as she janitored their perennial laziness The page is turnin’, lid closed tight on that jar More time for cocktails in dodgy tiki bars We be getting her back (at least a bit) Full Professor Daisy still simply.
