Actually I thought it was just a good
prank,
Slipping my mug into the Democrats' rank,
Presenting myself as one more contender,
One more pale face as a blue-suit
pretender,
For a down-the-pub laugh, YouTube repartee,
But it worked out OK, as soon you will see.
.
I called a campaign and said, "You're boy's
been switched,
To the second group t'is that his
night's been hitched."
I arrived on time, got made-up like the
rest,
Put at a lectern and shook hands with true zest,
Bernie said civil, "Phil? I don't think
we've met."
"It's quite a crowd, Bern', but now we're
all set."
.
The host frowned at me, I thought up was
the jig,
But then with sly wink he said he liked my
wig,
The show began, me between Bull' and the
Loop,
And when they asked me how to beat the Big
Poop,
I said, "Sometimes you gotta fight fire
with fire,"
Call Don a balding and cuckolded liar."
.
Well! I took flak for that: left, right and
center,
When I got the ball back I tried to enter
Completely new ground in our Dem debate,
Mentioning a point past which the rest
skate:
"Medicare for all? A new Flint
doesn't hap'?
Cut Defense by half and make Homeland S.
scrap."
.
Another bombshell! And the rest did me
flay,
Making sure I'd ne'er see the new light of
day,
Our defense was sacred, our homeland attacked!
How could I say this with no reason or
tact?
"Defense," said I, "keeps working the wrong
mission:
The Twin Towers, my friends, was controlled
demolition."
.
OOOF! Cream pies and stones flew, along
with some bricks,
Delaney and Klobuchar got in several kicks,
Never have Democrats been so united,
As when I averred that they were benighted,
But the last laugh was mine when the polls
were heard,
Behind Bernie and Liz, your boy came in
third.
