Are the Supremes gonna sing his song?
The one it took him four long years to write.
The one he and his choir auditioned in half
The states in what’s left of a Country.

Is the Nonet going to sing his melody
Or will they split into several quartets
Or perhaps a trio and two duets
With someone else taking the solo.

Are the Supremes gonna dance to his tune?
The rest of his orchestra turned him away
And the score calls for complicated steps
But he paid for their lessons in dishonest cash.

He provided new choir robes, with no lace collars
Does one size fit all, or are some too tight.
They insisted on black and refused MAGA red
In an effort to counterfeit decorum.

And still the question hangs in the air
Will the Supremes nonet sing his song.
Is the end of the world an impossible thought
Not if the Supremes agree to sing his song.

So the Orange man finally managed to get his case  all the way up to the Supreme Court, which he feels will, by some arcane system of math, reorder the election results to give him the presidency.  Stop laughing and wonder what would happen then. What WOULD happen then?  Maybe they won't like the tune and he'll be forced to take his final bow and leave the stage. Pray for it.
