- On the "free" Nicaraguan elections of 1990:
-
- * Yanqui Doodle got its way
- * In Nicaragua's vote
- * but take a look at all
- * We've done
- * Before you start to gloat.
- * Yanqui Doodle kept them
- * down
- * Yanqui Doodle's million$
- * Mined their harbors, cut off
- * trade,
- * And paid to kill civilians.
-
-
- * Yanqui Doodle promised
- * them
- * If they elect Chamorro
- * The contra thugs and em-
- * bargo
- * Would be called off tomor-
- * row.
- * Vote results cause much
- * surprise
- * At Nicaraguan's views
- * But yanqui Doodle made
- * an offer
- * They could not refuse.
-
-
- * Yanqui Doodle gets its way
- * By hook or else by crook
- * And when it comes to
- * Covert tricks
- * The U.S. wrote the book
- * Yanqui Doodle breaks the
- * law
- * Thinks that it's just dandy
- * When we're censured by
- * world courts
- * Our power comes in handy
