Here is one such effort, to the tune of “Love and Marriage,” popularly sung by Frank Sinatra.
Kids in Cages
You have to wonder just what it presages—
Let me tell you brother
It’s ev’ry child snatched from its mother.
Kids in cages, kids in cages,
It hardly matters how much it enrages,
Ask the average voter,
The topic couldn’t be remoter!
Try, try, try to care about them, it’s a confusion,
Try, try, try, till growing numb leads to collusion.
Kids in cages, kids in cages,
You have to tremble at what it presages—
Let me tell you brother,
It's ev’ry child, the truth beguiled,
It's ev’ry child snatched from its mother.
