We need a sharp-edged ruler,
who can spy upon us, too,
a real protective leader,
a Governor Gumshoe.
He’ll pound his dreaded gavel
if we have too much fun.
Then, if we don’t settle down,
he’ll go and get his gun.
He’ll walk the streets at night time,
eliminating crime,
and call his own electorate
a thieving vermin slime.
And when the next election time
comes rolling ’round again,
He’ll make damn sure that you vote.
He’ll make sure that he’ll win.
We need an upright ruler
who’ll control all things we do,
a regular dictator,
a Governor Gumshoe.
