Some candidates have done quite well
While others barely started
But now we ought to bow our heads
To thank the dear, departed
 
Michael Bennet, adios
Your farewell speech was stunning
Although most folks were unaware
That you were even running
 
Au Revoir to Andrew Yang,
We’ll miss your open collars
And I’m afraid I’ll never get
Your yearly thousand dollars
 
Cory, Kirsten, Marianne
You simply couldn’t compete
And Mayor Bill didn’t measure up
To little Mayor Pete
 
For me it’s just a wee bit more
Than I can comprehend
Manhattan on your resume
Is beaten by South Bend
 
The Massachusetts’ senator
Could never find smooth sailing
She had a plan for everything
Including one for failing
 
Joe Biden soared to finish fifth
And he weren’t even tryin’
His legacy will be the same
As William Jennings Bryan
 
Both men were lifelong Democrats
From sea to shining sea
Except that “The Great Commoner”
Was thrice the nominee
 
Mike and Tom have yet to start
They’re up to something funny
They may not have the country’s ear
But man, they sure have money
 
They’ll ride into the rescue
But they both may be too late
It’s gonna be a showdown
And friends, I just can’t wait
