The Lyrics

I'm dreaming of a bleak 2016
Just like a year ago
With ISIS recruitin' and more Lone Wolf shootin's
With demands that Assad go, but no...
Russia and Iran propped him up you know...

I'm dreaming of a bleak 2016
Democrat and Republican in-fights
Where Trump and Sanders shine bright
Anti-establishment Left and Right
And Hillary and Cruz defensive fights...

I'm dreaming of a bleak 2016
Don't know where the DOW will go
Dollars reevaluating, China currency devaluing
Oil supply overflow
Less than $25 a barrel, down it goes...
Iran to release 5 billion barrels, Russian economy slows

I'm dreaming of a bleak 2016
Kim Jong UN gives us a fright
Displaying missile and nuclear might
With Hawaii, Alaska, and W Coast in sight
S Korea, Japan, US interests hang tight...

I'm dreaming of a bleak 2016
Especially on Election Night... !!!

I would yell at you to wake up, but the problem with that is that you're not sleeping and this isn't a dream.

I don't get the title line to scan, or should it be understood that 2016 is just pronounced 16? What's your parody writing MO here?

Exactly as written. If I had wanted "Bleak '16" I would have written that. I'm taking a hopeful Xmas OS and turning it to black, which is obvious. Alternately, this could be "Quite Hopeless!"

Not just the Iran oil coming out; I saw where the US is going sell off some of its reserves. This sounds well thought out with the price the lowest in years and a glut on the market already. Cheer up - Biden's going to cure cancer.
