Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes

It's only too true
that one big switcheroo  
has been foisted off
on both me and you.
 
An identity crisis  
has somehow ensued, and
the Dems with Republican
passions imbued.
 
And Democrats with
the Republicans switched.
It's got harder and harder
to tell which is which.
 
The two party system
is really a joke.
and it surely needs fixin'
'cause it's sure as hell broke.
 
We're now stuck with a POTUS
who's ugly and wicked.
Who acts like his "Status"
gives him a free ticket
 
to use people as tools
for achieving his ends.
He treats women like dishcloths
and buys all his friends.
 
He torments for no reason
save it makes him feel better to
take babes from their mothers;
send them off, far away.
 
For folks come to seek safety,  
he's slamming the door.
Now tears down the face of
Miss Liberty pour.
 
So much for the noble words  
writ on her base  
about those seeking freedom,  
and peace in this place
 
This ain't the same country I joined long ago
How did we get here?
That's what I want to know?
We've been cursed, that's for sure
 
An Emotional Vampire, he's his own best lover.
And he feeds off the fear and misfortune of others.
That's how he gets jollies each evening in bed
Cheeseburgers and newsfeeds to stuff up his head.
 
So look out for your kids, folks... we'll surely  be next
He'll take our firstborn to hold as insurance
It may seem that way, but it's not that far fetched.
He sees himself as the Ultimate Leader... for life, if he gets... his dream.
 
I support crowning POTUS King Odious, the Last...  
to be followed by full Tar and Feathers...
a ride out of town on a nice splintery rail.
with Cake and Ice Cream for all comers
