cast off the coat
of the last eight years
cast off the coat
leave behind the arrears
cast off the coat
a new dawn appears
cast off the coat
the road ahead clears*
change who tillers
the admin's
ship
bring in a fresher
governance's
clip
Washington's clock ticks
with a timing so loud
pleading to the people
lift the heavy shroud
too long
an incumbency
too long its stay
staying for many
a long day
cast off the coat
of the last eight years
cast off the coat
leave behind the arrears
cast off the coat
a new dawn appears
cast off the coat
*the road ahead clears
of the last eight years
cast off the coat
leave behind the arrears
cast off the coat
a new dawn appears
cast off the coat
the road ahead clears*
change who tillers
the admin's
ship
bring in a fresher
governance's
clip
Washington's clock ticks
with a timing so loud

too long its stay

cast off the coat
of the last eight years
cast off the coat

cast off the coat
