We’ve got another topic for you.
Oompa loompa do-ba-dee-de
If you’ve got merit you’ll listen to me.
What you get when you reward the best?
Virtue for some and vice for the rest.
Aiming for merit with your social policy
Careful you don’t land on an oligarchy.
Oompa loompa do-ba-dee-da
Abandon meritocracy and you will go far.
You will live like egalitarian too,
Like the oompa loompa do-ba-dee-do
