He gave it a yo-man’s try
But democracy can’t be allowed to die
Because of that loser’s great big lie
And there’s no need to wonder why
Because the majority of us deserve it
We must do all we can to preserve it
Despite the efforts of those who misserve it
Doing their best to unnerve it

He did everything he could
To steal the election knock on wood
But it didn’t do him any good
Cos he lost anyhow understood?
Now he tells a lie that gets repeated
About why it is that he got defeated
Which is all the more reason that he got heated
And claimed that the other side cheated

Before the race even began
He claimed that the fix was in
Though incumbents usually win
Challengers do now and then
And that was the case in this race
The incumbent was the one who lost face
Going down in utter disgrace
Having soundly been replaced

Those in the know can detect
The former President’s a primary suspect
And he’s a nervous wreck
Which boggles one’s intellect
So much for democracy
When it’s us against the oligarchy
All the rest is pure malarkey
Like the drumming of Richard Starkey
