Did you see de Kids questin Madum Di-Fi—
catchin’ her befo’ she cud spin de big lie…?
Lawd, de ‘tude an’ disdain she cudn’t cunseel

De Dems dinosores an’ will soon be ekstink—

De chillen say, “NO water’d-down resolution!”
Lak dey ‘bout a decade ‘way frum revolution!
Way dey peepin’ de Dems' bull-scuses an’ lyin’
Questin is: when de shoes gonna start flyin’?
