YouTube Censorship

To the tune of “Good Ship Lollipop”

See the YouTube censorship,

So the truth they won’t let slip,

Where we cannot see

The unacceptable, by their decree.

Where a poster violates

Rules that YouTube never states.

What I can’t see

Might be bad for them but good for me.

And the total amount of your viewer count

Will be kept within control.

What they decry, “Oh, no!”

Might be what you extol.

If it’s hydroxychloroquine

Or the safety of a vaccine,

You’ll find your lips well zipped,

If you depart from the given script.

See the YouTube censorship,

So the truth they won’t let slip,

Where we cannot see

The unacceptable, by their decree.
