And so the emperor stands his ground, lest he be exposed,
lest we see him naked: no makeup or no clothes.
The lies come rolling off his tongue of drug lords on the seas,
while with intent he sinks the boats just to firm his needs.
A war with Venezuela would ensure a longer term
“Leadership Forever,” no matter how infirm.
Don’t say I didn’t warn ya when Zelenskyy made his visit
–Laws and rules do not apply when dealing with ‘illicit’
Deep inside our jester’s head was dropped a craven seed
taking root in blackened heart where it grows like a weed
There can be no dissension, no discourse in the ranks
he certainly will never cede should his favor tank.
He makes you think he’s set his sights on outside evil-doers
trans and gays and blacks and browns and democratic losers
He’s silenced all the laughter, he cannot take a joke
I hesitate to think what’s next, what new hell he’ll invoke
And so he tricks his followers, dividing “us” from “them.”
Yet, no matter what he says, we’re all Americans.
What trouble would he go to, to try to circumvent?
How many would he “disappear” to show is discontent?
as he denies and doubles down against all allegations
won’t even stop at killing to prevent incarceration.
He’s calls arrests on anyone that does not agree,
He’d throw us all in prison, then throw away the key.
A madman with a following, we’ve seen this one before…
and yet among his followers he’s losing some allure.
We may yet land in Florida, among the crocodiles...
Oh! the steps he’s taking, to not “Release the Files.”
