They say that they promised
As the reason why
Millions of us
Will now have to die
From repeal and replace
Which is a far cry
From what we had
And they cannot deny

What they’re now trying
To ram down our throat
Really isn’t better’
It’s just a new coat
Of paint on a ship
That never could float
Now all but the rich
Will be on the same boat

Of course I ‘m in favor of
Single payer
Despite opposition
From the naysayers
Cos we’re in position
To be a key players
In healthcare for all
Despite the delayers

We’re the richest country
In the whole world
And it’s beyond high time
That a plan is unfurled
I don’t see why
It makes them so uptight
To admit that healthcare
Should be a human right
