‘Twas eighty and seven years past, so they sayThat our founders created the US of A
With all of us equal! The Wuggles! The Fuzzins!And even our other Confederate cousins!
Now there’s a war and it’s bad and it’s sadBut a time will soon come when we’ll all be quite glad
That our nation still stands and our country’s still hereAnd we’ll all drink a toast with a mug of Sneetch cheer
These bravest of soldiers did not die for naughtWe need a do-over to do what we ought
