"THE BALLAD OF BLAGO'S TRIAL" by Jack the Clicker
(Sung to the tune of "When Johnny Comes Marching Home")
When Blago comes marching home again,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
The media will say "Welcome friend!"
Hurrah! Hurrah!
The judge and jury were hung in doubt,
The truth that matters will not come out,
And we'll all feel rage when
Blago comes marching home.
When Blago comes marching home again,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
Chicago's Machine will hide their sin,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
Obama's pardon not needed then,
And Rahm Emmanuel still his friend,
And we'll all feel rage when
Blago comes marching home
