Aye, to be right and popular
Nay, whether ‘tis nobler
To do good with dark reason
Or to do bad without treason
That is the question
Asked with great passion
For to suffer the slings of socialist misery
Or by reasoning with such a dissonant reveRide
As rendered by St. Hillary and Uncle Bernie
Conservatism must needs offer its mercy
That Liberals might abandon their rendition
And return from the edge of socialist perdition
Alas, equality for all
That none might fall
That none might toil
And socialism spoil
That none might fail
And abort sad socialist tale
That equity might be understood
As earned from family and the ‘hood
Not given or gifted
But from life brutally lifted
Right is but Liberalism after collision with reality
Left is but life lived under threat of penalty
Conservatism is life lived as a free being
For which socialism has no feeling;
Born free, but everywhere in chains
Not free that which he disdains
Not wisdom nor clarity
Always ending in disparity
Followed by more laws and regulation
To twist and torture a whole nation
Born of Life, Liberty and Dream
Which Liberals find lean and mean
Oh give me liberty or give me death
Til I draw my last American breath
