UnFair

For twenty eight years she's been the speaker at the Fair

At the police building, now she is off the air

What was the reason, of why they let her go

The proper thing would have been to let her know

She had her plans that she would be there

Until she heard she was replaced, which was so UnFair

What happened to make them change their mind

It came as a surprise, not a pleasant one to find

Was it due to the strike, she stood up for

Against a drunken driver, which was too hard to ignore

The Vets were going to honor him with an award

Because of him, her friends are with the Lord

She did what anyone would do

Standing up for what holds true

You have to stand for what is right

I wonder if the Fair manager could shed some light

Would be nice to know the why

Why they replaced her with a guy

She was good at what she did there

I really believe they treated her UnFair

After 28 years, in 2006 Denise Sayklly was informed

that the Fair had found someone else to be the speaker.

She wasn't told why they replaced her. She will be missed

at the Fair by her many friends.
