In Umbleania by the Sea
\nThere’s now a true democracy
\nFor Old King Bob has given votes
\nTo all the nation’s sheep and goats<\/p>\n
The population aren’t impressed
\nThese ungulates are all obsessed
\nWith spending toes on hay and straw
\nWhich other voters must abhor<\/p>\n
Next year the King had promised that
\nThe new PM will be his cat
\nWhose policies are fish and rest
\nFor all the friends he loves the best<\/p>\n
A revolution’s getting near
\nBut Good King Bob will never fear
\nThe votes these animals all cast
\nWill meet a floral counterblast<\/p>\n
And sanity is soon restored
\nWhen every living thing’s on board
\nFor everything’s now fair and free
\nIn Umbleania by the Sea<\/p>\n

\nthe hot steamy deserts of trees, and bask on it’s temperate glaciers …<\/p>\n
