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
