The Day After

Collaboration between Hullabaloo22 and myself

The day after the election, we'll still be treated to the thrilling sight,

and sounds, of The D-Man, 'cause he'll not just fade into that good night,

no, he's hooked on the spotlight, and the media's wearing knee pads.

and are thrilled to give it to him, no, we're gonna be booted in the 'nads,

by having to watch him on his forced-on-us hatred platform.

from which he'll lie, lie, lie, lie some more, and misinform

what is apparently an all-too-willing-to-believe-him hardcore few,

who won't listen to reason, or trust easily-verifiable fact, so we're screwed!

No, he’s not going to accept defeat, won’t take it laying down,

he’ll be shouting ‘Foul’ and ‘It’s a fix’ just like some 

deranged clown.

He has to be the winner or else he’ll just lose face;

no, that won’t be the end of it if he don’t get first place.

An absolute demolishing would not change his mind,

he’ll be bringing out his minions for discrepancies to find

and, hey, if they cannot find some, there’s sure to be 

debate

and things will get too heated, and the suspicions they’ll 

create?

No, for weeks after, the fighting is sure to carry on,

unless the unthinkable happens and there is a President 

Don.

Democracy can be a double edge sword; my friends and I on this side of the pond are very much trusting that our friends on the other side of the pond won't end up with a self inflicted wound. :))

I hope and think you're right, but the damage he's already caused is incalculable. I think they're going to be around for a while.
