The Dead Kennedys have some horribly funny (albeit dark) songs. Whenever I hear the part where the roller coaster was sabotaged I think of Nazi spies, and it makes me smile every time.

This song sums up how our elections and politics go back in my home last year.

We were too busy voting in a thieving party with no interest in the working class to write any satirical government songs

Aww, Canada and England has no satirical songs about your government? A damn shame, sucks to be you guys. In Australia, we're procrastinating so much that we managed to cause the whole election into a stand still when two major political parties were cast into a draw in the end and having a bit more time to write scathing songs about our politicians.

I'm sure we do. We have several really good political satire shows...well one less now that Air Farce is canceled, but I can't think of any satirical songs. Our three political leaders are kinda like the Three Stooges. Does that count?

Well, I suppose so, yes.
To be fair, the Chasers were the only one I could think of that does political satire in Australia, mostly in their own newspaper like "The Onion". Occasionally they do shows once in a while whenever an election appears and they used to have their own TV show series before they decided to call it off before they hit the shark. I think Good News Week does political satire too, but mostly about being ripped from the papers from what I have heard, and we used to have "The Panel" years ago.
So... what is this "Air Farce" show about?

The Royal Canadian Air Farce,. It started out as a radio show in the 70s got to TV in the 90s and was canceled a couple of years ago. It was sketch comedy based on news and politics. It was pretty funny stuff but lost a lot of steam once one of the members died. A few younger comedians signed on but could not bring it back

That's sad, but understandable. Kinda reminds me about the whole tragic situation with Skeltel and Ebert show, with one of the members of Air Farce died.

Oh Hell we got three thieving parties who care not for the working class. The Liberals, Conservative and the NDP. I'm angrier at the Tories (and the Liberal Democrats.) What's the point of cutting military, education, health and raising tuition fees? People have to live in this country, you know! I'm inclined to say I dislike the Liberal Democrats more, seeing as how they voted to raise tuition when they said they'd lower it. Two-faced, slimy gits.
