Make America great Again
And bring this reign to an end
Look at all the time we spend
Trying real hard to comprehend
The days are short, the nights are long
What the hell is going on
How come some just go along
When even they know that it’s wrong

Make America great again
A land of laws, and not of men
Like only we the people can
Unlike a Twitter feed on send
It’s a catch-phrase that they state
To wrap around their brand of hate
For others they deem second rate
And find it hard to relate

Make America great again
Don’t postulate or just pretend
What’s the message that would send
To friends or foes or next of kin
It can’t be talked into existence
Despite a proclivity for insistence
Which will meet with stark resistence
By people living on mere subsistence

Make America great again
Cuz what we now do is pretend
The immigrants we apprehend
Are animals to be caged when
We lose sight of where they’ve been
Which is like a kick in the shin
And it doesn’t matter what’s the spin
Nor can you say that it’s built in
