    Hail King Prick!

    The vain glorious dick has been elected King Prick.

    A mourning of victory for all the worlds pricks!

    Hide your son from the colours,

    go lock up all your daughter’s ships.

    For hear a World full of slaughter happily skips.

    Calamity of blind rages,

    has spoke a joke for all our ages.

    We will fight the Right

    Ā Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  for the Right,

    Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Right?

    Be awoken lips for better or keep getting worse,

    this long cars rolling backward blackbird

    ‘Reverse!’

    its a great big bloody hearse!

    Thru’ the eye of a needle

    its good morning evil,

    -FUCK A DUCK-

    cuz, that criminal rich racist New York Honky,

    has just become King Mc Donald Donkey!

    -Antonio
