The Lyrics
OK, I promise that THIS and today's Molly Hatchet parody will be the LAST political parodies I do, at least for a while. Nevertheless, I just had to celebrate Trump's loss. Enjoy the parody! DKTOS?
Bernie Sanders had a million fans,
But he was a flash in the pan.
He was so hopeful; he had big plans,
But his hopes all got canned.
Big Joe Biden took the party seat,
He worked so hard; he wouldn’t cheat.
Down in the White House where the fascist Tweets,
He saw the man to beat.
Always get the urge to go cast your votes and see the show,
Who will win the crown?
Somebody will get let down, nothin’ slow in D.C. town,
Everybody knows.
Election, vote for four years,
Election, blood, sweat and tears,
Election, vote for four years,
Election, cast out your fears.
Stand for your suffrage and gather your peers,
The day nears!
Donald Trump, he had the tree timed wrong,
They busted him for stealing songs.
Donald wasn’t Lincoln, but he came on real strong,
Donald ain’t lasted too long.
Always get the urge to go cast your votes and see the show,
Who will win the crown?
Somebody will get let down, nothin’ slow in D.C. town,
Everybody knows.
Election, vote for four years,
Election, blood, sweat and tears,
Election, vote for four years,
Election, cast out your fears.
Stand for your suffrage and gather your peers,
The day nears!
[guitar solo]
Election, vote for four years,
Election, blood, sweat and tears,
Election, vote for four years,
Election, cast out your fears.
(Yeah!)
Election, vote for four years,
Election, blood, sweat and tears,
Election, vote for four years,
Election, cast out your fears…
[fade out, just like Trump’s flame]
But he was a flash in the pan.
