Tune: Lilli Marlene We’ve got Stephen Harper Thinks he’s here to stay When there’s opposition He won’t want to play There’s no committee hearings now, Embarrassing, and showing how His government knew torture Was what it would allow. He’s our great dictator He calls all the shots Don’t say climate’s warming, Banish all those thoughts.
