How many times have I said NJ sucks,

Now state employees are not getting their bucks,

The state senate (?) has yet to approve a budget,

Though the newly elected governor gets paid I bet…

Atlantic cities casino’s are shut down,

Anything state run has as well to a halt ground,

How long in this sad state of affairs are state employees bound,

All they need is a budget that both political parties thinks sound…

Seems it would be easy,

I feel for the folks who are now, for lack of a job, queasy,

I hope they get retroactive pay, which I think they are due,

Come on Governor Corzine get yourself a freakin’ clue…!
