McConnell Steps Down, Let’s Sing!

By Alec Pruchnicki

(Sung to the tune of The Patriot Game)

Come all of you people, and list while I sing

For the fear for one’s country is a terrible thing

It revs up paranoia with the speed of a flame

And it makes us a target of the politics game.

 

My name is Pruchnicki and I’m 76

I was raised in the North Bronx way up in the sticks

I was told that the Right Wing of our nation’s to blame

For the dark evil side of the politics game.

 

For some years now our country’s been only half free

Nearly half of our people love Don Trump’s tyranny

And old man McConnell is greatly to blame

For his devious part in the politics game.

 

I remember when Al Gore was screwed by The Court

And Obama and Garland never got what they sought

Mitch’s evil spread widely his strength and his fame

For this lowly event in the politics game.

 

So let’s sing now with force and let’s sing now with fire

Maybe patriots tune from the nation of Eire

Bella Ciao’s song from Italy somewhat the same

To exile this bad man from the politics game.

 

I know not who will come next to replace this sad ‘hore

For the Senate is poisoned way down to the core

Hope the next one won’t be more of the same

And continue the evil of the politics game.
