The Lyrics

To the idiot(s) who automatically award me 13 ones for every song I submit, here's one for you. No names here, but if the cap fits...
PERISH

I've heard it on the grapevine, things aren't looking good,
Let us hope they are wrong.
He's had his turn in office, time to step away.
He should now move along.
I hope and pray he'll never say that he'll return.
Should he decide to run then Heaven help us all,
Someone else should have their turn.

Perish the thought that he
Could be back in the Chair again.
Perish the thought,
Who would have thought,
Perish the thought.

How will the world react
If this man was in power again?
Perish the thought,
Who would have thought,
Perish the thought.

The world is watching closely, fearful of the worst.
They just hope they are wrong.
Another term in office is something they dread,
He needs to move along.
So many pray that he will say he'll stand down.
Should he decide to run then Heaven help us all,
Another four years of Hell.

Perish the thought that he
Could be back in the Chair again.
Perish the thought,
Who would have thought,
Perish the thought.

How will the world react
If this man was in power again?
Perish the thought,
Who would have thought,
Perish the thought.
