The Brits had an anthem ready for when Margaret Thatcher died. Americans should also be prepared.

We should commission something good.
I don’t think any existing song is good enough nor should it be dragged down by the association.

Ween - You Fucked Up
Lyrics:
You fucked up, you bitch
\ You really fucked up
\ You fucked up
\ You fucking Nazi whore
Well, you dicked me over
\ But now you'll pay
\ You fucked up
\ Aaaahhh!
You fucked up, you bitch
\ You really fucked up
\ You fucked up
\ You [slimy] little shit bitch fuck
Well, you dicked me over
\ But now you'll pay
\ You fucked up
\ Aaaahhh!
\ Well, you dicked me over
\ But now you'll pay
\ You fucked up
\ Aaaahhh!

I worked for a manufacturer on the engineering side for a while, and we had this absolute manipulator cunt in HR, basically throwing the CEO's name around like it was a pass to commit murder.
Once the CEO found out some of the shit she pulled, he dropped the ban hammer immediately. It was such a relief to us all, we were literally skipping and hopping in the hallways shouting "ding dong! the witch is dead!" It was a great moment until we realized a few months later half of the shit she did actually came from him and nothing really changed.
That last point may or may not be relevant to current times.
- Yeah that's the worst he was not mad at the actions he was made she was throwing his name around. She was ment to be plausible deniability.
  
  Exactly, you get what I'm trying to say. That and it isn't just one person/entity that is the issue.
- Is the ban hammer a firing, or was she just kicked from the company servers?
  
  It was a firing, but also booted from the company servers

We can adapt one of theirs, how about "Tamp the dirt down" by Elvis Costello?

I recommend the failure horns from the Price is Right.
- It would be HILARIOUS if a military band did that instead of playing Hail to the Chief. He gets off Air Force One and you just hear Fum fum fu fuuum, DUUUUURG.
  
  I could not for the life of me remember what the price is right failure horn sounded like.
  Then I read your comment and it was like a bolt into my soul.
  Well done, sir.

- I just looked that up, and... TIL where that sound clip came from.

I’m not saying “ding dong the witch is dead” wasn’t a perfect capture of the sentiment, but it’s also really hard to improve on “Lizzie’s in a box” for the sheer ability to send the most insufferable people on the planet into a frothing rage.
- How about "Witch, watch, the ding dong's dead" instead?

Ding Dong the rapist's dead?

ding dong the bitch is dead

How about "Celebration" by Kool & the Gang? "Celebrate good times, come on!"
- That's what I'll be playing, that's for sure!

I've been thinking "Dancing in the Street"
https://youtu.be/68Uv959QuCg

It's gotta be something kids can sing. But what's another way of saying orange fuck ass motherfucker in a socially acceptable way?
- The poo pants man is dead!
  The poo pants man is dead!
  His pants are clean
  The country's keen
  Cause orange man has bled!

He doesn't deserve it. I wouldn't piss on him if he were on fire.
- I would piss on his grave, though
  
  Okay, but let me shit on it first, please.
- Waste of good piss
  
  I’m not so sure. Get a few dozen full honey trucks that have been roasting in the sun for a few weeks, and have ‘em unload on him. That seems like a fitting purpose for sewage.
- It's not for him, it's for everyone who had to survive.

Idk but do you think his burial place will be accesible by the General public? Id like to plan shitting on it.
- You will get arrested for public nudity. Package it up beforehand and spread/drop it.
  I will be bottling urine myself so I can piss on his grave. We may bump into each other.
  
  I want to get arrested when I shit Taco Bell diarrhea all over his headstone. Need to have official proof that I did it!
  
  I don't want to make your noble task more unpleasant... But have you considered concentrating it down a bit? Less hassle, more pee scent!
  
  I was thinking catheter and some tubing down the leg with a valve at the end.
- But first, put on a bunch of corpse flower sculptures on it so people know where to shit and piss.
- I imagine the grounds staff will put gravel over that grave. No way grass will ever survive that amount of urine.

Ding dong the witch is dead. I remember that. Good Times.
- Ding dong Donny’s dead
  
  Ding dong the dick is dead.
- Ding dong the orange is dead

Na na na na
Na na na na
Hey hey hey
Goodbye

You worthless bitch
You fickle shit
You will spit on me
You will make me spit
And when the Judas howl, arise
And like the Jesus Jews, you epitomize
I'll still be here as strong as you
And I'll walk away in spite of you -bauhaus (Crowds)

Perhaps they can use Lily Allen's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yFE6qQ3ySXE -- she's from UK but oh well

Currently, that Tom Petty song with the lyric about "the waiting is the hardest part" seems appropriate.

I'd put good money on there already being some pretty good bangers waiting in the vault.
- "Bangers in the Vault", another British classic about Margaret Thatcher.

Words that rhyme with Trump: chump, grump, slump, bump, rump, lump, hump, Gump, dump, frump(y), pump, thump, clump, stump...
For Don: gone, pawn, prawn, fong, jong, con, QAnon, Mastadon...
There's some pretty inspiring stuff to work with here for sure.

So I hadn't heard this song and went looking for it. There are so many songs celebrating her death. https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2013/04/7-songs-margaret-thatcher-funeral-playlist/

Something around there being a new toilet in the country but with the music from The Sound Of Music?

We could always adopt “Lizzie’s in a box”

- It'd be fitting since we adopted other songs for our national anthems.

Is Ding Dong The Witch Is Dead only for women?

We've got a song for Boris Johnson too
- For everyone's listening pleasure

We'd be a little late to the party, think she's been dead for a while.

May I suggest the orchestra song from Joey Quits? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9A4UGtM4hDQ
Seems to have the kind of celebratory vibe that would be warranted

It's a real shame they stuck this song on the end of a long video. The video is neat but the music video at the end is an absolute banger. Skip to 22:30 if the timestamped link doesn't work.

All news media have stuff ready for when a famous person pops their clogs. Various versions, usually.

I'm pretty sure when he keels over it'll A. be his fault and B. lead to an avalanche of conspiracy theories probably inspiring terrorist attacks. It will not be a day of rejoicing for me.

I can’t wait! This song comes to mind in the interim. https://youtu.be/Dbnm-0r3suM

I’d suggest ‘Happy’ by Pharrell Williams

Ha. I have a 4 act playlist ready!

Trump's should be a series of farts, shit dumps and loud pissing.

Union Dixie?
