about

It was bound to happen. Eventually I would get angry enough to write a Trump song.

lyrics

HE LIES MORE OFTEN THAN YOU WASH YOUR HANDS,
LATE NIGHT TWITTERS LAUNCH KNEE-JERK PLANS,
CHEATS AT GOLF, CHEATS ON HIS WIFE,
HE’S BEEN A SPOILT BRAT ALL OF HIS LIFE,
HIS NARCISSISTIC RANTS AND RAGE,
EVERY TIME HE DOESN’T GET HIS WAY,
WHAT HE DOESN’T LIKE, HE CALLS FAKE NEWS,
HE’S IMPETUOUS, PETTY, COMPLETELY CONFUSED.

DOESN’T BUILD BRIDGES, JUST BUILDS WALLS,
IMPOSES TARIFFS AND STARTS TRADE WARS,
SELF DENIAL, PATHOLOGICAL LIAR,
FAMILY AND CRONIES ARE ALL THAT HE’LL HIRE,
HE’S RUDE, ABRASIVE AND IDIOT SMUG,
EXACTS REVENGE WITH A DANGEROUS SHRUG,
THICK SKINNED AND BLINKERED, OUT OF CONTROL,
HE REALLY CAN’T SEE, WHAT WE ALL KNOW.

WHAT DOES THIS ALL ADD UP TO, I HEAR YOU ASK ?,
A LOOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FACTS.


EVERY TIME HE’S BLOCKED AND RILED,
HIS ‘GO TO MODE’ IS PETULANT CHILD,
HE’S GOT NO MORALS, NO ETHICAL CODE,
IF HIS BACK’S TO THE WALL, IT’S LOCK AND LOAD,
NO SENSE OF HUMOUR, NO SELF-RESPECT,
NO SENSE OF OCCASION, NO ETIQUETTE,
HE TALKS AT FOURTH GRADE LEVEL, AT BEST,
WITH ‘OFF THE CUFF’ SPEECHES THAT NEVER IMPRESS.

DOESN’T BELIEVE IN CLIMATE CHANGE,
EVEN MAKES UP COUNTRY NAMES,
TILLERSON HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD,
‘HE’S A MORON’, WAS ALL HE SAID,
HE BULLIES, HE BLUSTERS, HE RIDICULES,
TO COMPENSATE FOR THE FACT HE’S A FOOL,
AMERICANS MUST BE IN SHOCK,
THE COUNTRY’S A WORLDWIDE LAUGHING STOCK.

WHAT DOES THIS ALL ADD UP TO, I HEAR YOU ASK ?,
A LOOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FACTS,
WHAT DOES THIS ALL ADD UP TO, I HEAR YOU ASK ?,
A LOOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FACTS,
A LOOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FACTS,
A LOOSE RELATIONSHIP WITH THE FACTS.
