The latest competition was a nod to Donald Trump’s first year in office, and what better as a springboard than the US President’s own words. Taking inspiration from @huntthesnark on Twitter, I invited you to compose a presidential patter song, taking as your first line ‘I am the very model of a Very Stable Genius’.
John Beaton’s first two stanzas caught my eye:I am the very model of a Very Stable Genius.

I have a mighty button and no problems with my penius.
I have no time for television, golf, or social media
Since my brain is way way better than the best encyclopedia.
I am the very model of a Very Stable Genius and though my tiny hands can’t grab the bigness of my penius- and, by the way, its bigness is so big it is obscenious- they’re fine for grabbing babes who’ve kept their bodies beauty queenious.
I sniff a lot and slur a bit.
