He was never mentioned by name
He doesn’t deserve it
A man who uses words so loosely
Fodder for a cannon ball
Does not deserve to hear his name
Has been that’s all
Threw words around just as he pleased
Whatever will serve will do
You’re wonderful people
(They lap it up)
Wonderful people I love you
Get the people on your side
Spin a web of lies
Inaugurate conspiracies
Side order of French fries
Waffle about how great we are
Exaggerate or minimise
Words are there to create your truth
Others to despise
We have had a peaceful year it seems
Escaping from his voice
But America is divided
God help us in the choice
If ever he comes back again
And we hear again his spiel
The world will be the worse for it
America get real
