The Lyrics
If I were a senator
I’d have beat that lady
That is, on the election day
Though she deserves caning
If a thinker were my trade
I’d have a mind, me
But my job is a charade
Many wax behind me
I’m a chump in loneliness
I gave many sorrow
Party nixed my doughfleeced nest
So I’ll have to borrow
It’s a worm-chewed stand I’ve stood
But the GOP
Says “You’re doing us no good”!
Overboard they’ve thrown me
They cut off my millions
Because I’m too slimy
Even for the cholered boss
He ain’t THAT old-timey
If I were a senator
I’d force all raped ladies
To carry to term anyway
Have the rapist’s baby
I’ve served six terms, you say “no way!
Dude’s WAY beyond crazy”
I’d have beat that lady
That is, on the election day
Though she deserves caning
If a thinker were my trade
I’d have a mind, me
But my job is a charade
Many wax behind me
I’m a chump in loneliness
I gave many sorrow
Party nixed my doughfleeced nest
So I’ll have to borrow
It’s a worm-chewed stand I’ve stood
But the GOP
Says “You’re doing us no good”!
Overboard they’ve thrown me
They cut off my millions
Because I’m too slimy
Even for the cholered boss
He ain’t THAT old-timey
If I were a senator
I’d force all raped ladies
To carry to term anyway
Have the rapist’s baby
I’ve served six terms, you say “no way!
Dude’s WAY beyond crazy”
