Hold Fast the Rope

Tie him down, Cement his shoes, We must ensure his promises, Are never followed through, For he wages war, On our house so flammable, So we'll wreathe his noose, With his actions so damnable, Prepare him to march, The people must witness, The shame of a traitor, And the price of resistance, Pull the lever, Before he inspires hope, So that the masses won't save him, By holding fast the rope.
