SING IT to the tune of My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean

The five of us love corporations,
They’re persons like you and like me.
They pour money into elections
And this is pure de-mo-cra-cy.

Stand back, Stand back,
Watch corporations take over the world,
Stand back, Stand back,
Fasc-is-m for you and for me.
