He’s estranged from us
He’s desperate and he’s dangerous
And he’s very strange to us
As we fight for the change we must
Had he done what was required
He might have been rehired
And even been admired
For the vaccine he inspired

He’s estranged from us
And not the kind that instills trust
Cuz he engenders our disgust
And he’s too quick to combust
He’s not the man that he used to be
So he’s been fired unceremoniously
At last we the people are finally free
Of his unique brand of skullduggery

He’s estranged from us
Consequently he’s been left in the dust
By a man that people really can trust
As previously discussed
Don’t kick a dog when he’s down
But hisf breed need to be in the ground
And I’m well aware how this may sound
Cuz the truth is commodity that’s rarely found

He’s estranged from us
Cuz he’s the god in which he trusts
Who’s so full of himself that he might bust
Or be trampled on like old sawdust
Pretty soon he will be gone
Heartbroken and also forlorn
Cuz he hasn’t upheld the oath he’s sworn
And tomorrow represents a brand new dawn

I believe in the people
Who founded democracy
I believe in her  principles
That we now rarely see
I believe in America
The one that used to be
I believe what we’re seeing today
Is nothing but hypocrisy

I believe in the Constitution
As it was meant to be
The greatest living document
In American history
I believe in the Bill of Rights
As properly amended
I believe that’s everything
That Donald Trump’s offended

I believe our power is our people
Who have to step up to the plate
And remove the conspiracy theories
That have come to the surface of late
I believe our republic is worth saving
If we're committed to participate
And I believe in everything
That I’ve had the courage to state

I believe we could easily lose
The soul of our nation real quick
Cuz the past four years we’ve been ailing
And it’s clear that we’re terminally sick
See we’ve been drinking the Kool Aid
That Trump’s so amply supplied
We’re at a come to Jesus moment
That’s up to each of us to decide

He’s  barking at the moon
But  it will all be over soon
And he’s  gonna change his tune
It’s safe to assume
Because the wild man at the helm
Who has been overwhelmed
Will legally be compelled
To leave the office he’s held

He’s barking at the moon
Him and his platoon
Who will soon be  consumed
Because they’re clearyl doomed
And will havta pay the cost
For his election loss
Though his wires are crossed
Cuz few ballots were tossed

He’s barking at the moon
While acting like a goon
He must be crazy as a loon
At a lagoon in June
Like Captain Ahab chasing that whale
His best efforts were doomed to fail
I hope he’s raising bail
Cuz he’s gonna be in jail

He’s barking at the moon
While covid deaths consume
Those who’ve faced it’s doom
Which generates more  gloom
The President is a liar
Who doesn’t know how to inspire
Us because it’s dire
Like being on a high wire

I guess it figures
They were just sand *******
And his heart’s been hardened
So he chose to pardon
Their Blackwater killers
Mercenary distillers
Of death and destruction
It’s a logical deduction

They were hell-bent
Destroying whoever went
Beyond a certain point
By bloodying up the joint
They all were identified
And convicted once tried
But now the controversy’s starting
Since he gave them a pardon

Iraqi innocents
Dead and gone since
The sons and daughters
Of people who never fought us
Victims of the slaughter
Perpetrated by Blackwater
Monetarily driven
Now all but forgiven

Though of brown  skin
Neither foe nor friend
Killed for no good reason
During that killing season
From the evidence we see
They were killed summarily
And their killers let out
Left to mingle and walk about

Isn’t it odd
That he’d claim fraud
When he should be awed
By how Biden clawed
His way to the top?
While his own numbers dropped
Facts can’t be denied
Biden won by a landslide

Isn’t it strange
How things suddenly changed
And Trump acted deranged
When he felt shortchanged
He was practically broken
After the people had spoken
And was seeking a token
From among his outspoken

Even Mitch McConnell
As Burger King’s Ronald
Played Old McDonald
While tryna coddle
A despot gone mad
Who’s lost what he had
When the market went bad
His ending was sad

Now it couldn’t be clearer
We’re entering a new era
One more sincerer
Than Trump’s broken mirror
It’s time we move on
From a past that is gone
Cuz as sure as you’re born
A new era has dawned

The American public
Doesn’t give a ****
So invest in caskets
And refrigerated trucks
As a sure way to
Increase you bucks
While funeral directors
Say, “Aw shucks!”

Super spreader events
Are being held everywhere
And only Fauci
And his colleagues seem to care
So we’re dying in droves
Just to be fair
While catching the virus
That’s launched in the air

Follow the science
Instead of the fools
Cuz they have laid down
Some concrete rules
Social distancing and masks
Just a couple of tools
That are more precious than
The rarest of jewels

All around the White House
They’re dropping like flies
Yet the President insists
On telling us lies
But sooner or later
We’re gonna realize
The truth of the matter
Which depends on who dies

I suppose
That Rudy now knows
The wrong path he chose
Left him
As well as others exposed
To a deadly virus
That is most undesirous
As is his bias

I guess
That nevertheless
If he were to confess
He’d say that he’s blessed
With the best medical care
One can get anywhere
And if he were to share
He’s painfully aware

Covid’s no joke
Though he’s often misspoke
But now that he’s woke
And trying not to choke
From depleted lung capacity
Given his new veracity
He now has the audacity
To abandon past mendacity

Now that he knows
How deep
The rabbit hole goes
Cuz he’s taking his blows
Due to
The course that he chose
Like the emperor
He’s not wearing clothes
