Russ Scheidler of Local 2181 leads a round of “King Tim,” a polka he wrote for AFSCME’s override rally. Listen to “King Tim.”

Want to sing along? Here are the lyrics.

King Tim
Chorus
King Tim of Minnesota
Doesn’t care about democracy
King Tim of Minnesota
He wants to be president, you see

1st verse
So, he acts like a little bully
It’s my way or the highway, says King Tim
He will not count your vote fully
Unless you vote Republican like him

2nd verse
He insists on “no new taxes”
He’ll create new jobs by laying people off
He will kill your health and welfare
And the blood on his hands won’t wash off

3rd verse
If you’re a proud homeowner
You will pay for all Tim’s budget bill
He decided corporations get a free ride
Under Time, the rich will never pay their fill
