Winners & Losers
(With apologies to Nelly The Elephant's original lyricists Ralph Butler & Peter Hart)
U. S. A. - The regular caucus came. They chose an intelligent President - Obama was his name. One dark night He had to leave again; Two terms were spent and off he went Never to serve again. Barack Obama has packed his trunk And said goodbye to the White House, Making way for the Donald the Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump. Hillary Clinton has packed her trunk And left by car for Chicago - Off she’s sent by the Donald the Trump Trump, Trump, Trump. The end of the road was calling; Soon came the day When parties fight in the TV light And the world can only pray. So ... Barack Obama has packed his trunk; But who says Hi to the White House? Cruz? Or Sanders? Or Clinton? Or Trump? Trump! Trump! Trump! Night by night They wooed the divided land With Hillary leading the poll parade But Trump so loud and grand. No more tricks Could Hillary perform; He’s forced her now to take her bow Amid the media storm. Many a Democrat packed his trunk And said goodbye to the caucus - Off the back of the Donald the Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump. Every Republican packed his trunk And said Hallo to the Congress; In he went with the Donald the Trump, Trump, Trump, Trump. The rest of the world appalling, Trump won the day! His latest bride at his bloated side, And the pressmen kept at bay. Desert is spreading and ice has shrunk, We wave goodbye to the jungle; Life has lost when the winner is Trump. Trump. Trump. Trump. |
