The suckiest year 2016 I call out our losses
And of these stars in baring our crosses
David Bowie was the King of Plastic Soul
Everyone's favourite villain Alan Rickman
Prince was gone in his Purple Rain
Dan Haggerty who was Grizzly Adams
Gene Wilder the only true Willie Wonka
Glenn Frey the silky voice of The Eagles
Harper Lee the writer of To Kill a Mocking Bird
George Kennedy from Airport and The Naked Gun
Jon English Australian Singer of Hollywood Seven
Garry Shandling made me laugh from The Larry Sanders Show
Merge Haggard the country singer with 30 number one hits
Billy Paul from the 70s singer of Me and Mrs Jones
Alan Young, Mr Ed the talking horse's mate
Michu Meszaros who was ALF on television
Anton Yelchin the new Star Trek Chekhov
Kenny Baker who was R2D2 in Star Wars
Hugh O'Brian who played Wyatt Earp
Bobby Vee the 60's singer and heart throb
Robert Vaughan The Man from Uncle
Leon Russell the 1970's key board wizard
Pete Burns the'80s singer spinning round like a record
Arnold Palmer who brought golf to the masses
Jon Polito who played the the likeable gangster
With the Greatest boxer we ever saw, Muhammed Ali
Who could forget Leonard Cohen the Hallelujah composer
Charmaine Carr who was Lisle in The Sound of Music
Doris Roberts who was Raymond's mother on television
Patty Duke one of televisions 1960's stars
I salute them and the pleasure they were for us all
But 2016 you suck for what was taken in your call
