'Dead Horses' copyright 2010 by Rick Reiley
You can beat a dead horse
But he won't come to life
He won't even squirm or squeal
You'll just make the neighbors mad
Over a horse that don't even feel
The whole town'll talk about you
Then soon folks will take up sides
And you'll all be beatin' dead horses
That no one will ever ride
(Chorus)
Know how to measure your horses
Whether they're dead or alive in the stall
Sometimes they may respond even better
If you never beat 'em at all
Repeat

I really like that. I can even hear a tune in my head while reading it. :-)
