The Lyrics

The disenfranchised voter
Was drinking lots of tasty drinks from bar
“I am happy man, I voted
For the orange man.
New messiah is a man adored.

I voted for great man
Great man
Sweet misogyny
I voted for great man

Mex’cans and Muslims with families
They’ll all be leaving our great land

His traveling companion,
Toward gays he’s cold
My kind of man
Hates that type marriage

And the orange man won’t deceive
All those tax forms, we don’t need
From great man

I’ve come here to tell you we’ve won
In case you didn’t know that
In case you have the dark skin, your race
Has now been given notice
The world you knew will change into old place

And from deep Christian love
Here’s to the women in my heart
Little kitty needs a hand that’s smart
Little kitty needs a rich beau…

I’m learning from great man
Love his moral creed
I’m learning from great man

Worldview is winning, no NATO need
And we should listen to great man

And his Putin friend’s expansion
He loves that little roughneck
They’re gonna be pals and besties

All you lib’rals, ya’ll should flee
You’ve no values he believes
Our great man

And for science, he’s no silly
He wants to shelf those global warmth beliefs
For learn-eds when they’re squawking, talking
Or writing of turmoil we say
‘Hey, I don’t know what you mean.
Which means your science is waste, man.’

And I’m just oozing love
I’ve got some wisdom to impart
Everybody must accept his heart
Everybody must go aim low

In great land, we’ve great man
We voted for great man
For reasons I just did explain
I am wannabe orange, blue free.
Great fan.”

And next to our guy, sat a friend
Red in hue, fork a-swinging
Tail pointy, he had jubilation smile

Saying, “There’ll be others who believe
Objectives I’ll achieve
With great man.”
