The Never Ending Story

Vote for me the smiler said,

To the man who lost his head,

Lost his head and lost his arms,

When he voted for the smiler’s charms.

Vote for me he oozed with guile,

His flinty eyes, his beaming smile,

Vote for war and vote for strife,

Vote for me and give your life.

And the young men lie upon the hill,

The smiling man has had his will,

And sitting back he smiles so bright,

Oh who will vote for me tonight?
