Our Commander in Chief A liar and thief Less poise than Cheef Keef Poisons the coral reefs Turns over the same leaf Covers it with new beef A new outrageous tweet Wash, rinse, repeat With every action he divides our nation into factions Giving a fraction of the truth, he replaces fact with distraction Selling manufactured satisfaction In fact we are living ration to ration Press releases become trash compaction Gluing facets to fit the latest fashion While hiding his utter lack of compassion Tragedy and calamity Total lack of humanity A far shot from sanity Blinded by his vanity Mesmerized by Sean Hannity Our orange head of state Ignores what’s at stake As he takes and takes Makes dire mistakes Poisons rivers and lakes I wake in shivers and shakes Executive orders Walled off borders Photoshopped reporters Narcissistic personality disorder The bloated wealth hoarder The great divider, the sorter Total disregard for the truth Fools gold or real gold Both break your tooth So believe what you are told Believe the one who’s most bold Watch the country be sold for profit The fortune of a false prophet For the pocketbook of a liar The potato is on fire It’s too late to drop it The world will soon burn If we don’t rise up to stop it
