Reader: His nose was red but now he's dead.
All: His nose was red but now he's dead.Reader: And the distillers shall mourn, likewise the Welfare Queen, and the entitlement mongers.
All: His nose was red but now he's dead.Reader: May the taxes rise like the end of his sailboat when he stepped off, and the dead awaken to vote once again.
All: His nose was red but now he's dead.Reader: Curse the warriors and comfort mine enemies. Smite the unborn and praise the treasonous.
