He…has no morals
Just grie…vances galore
Tariffs…and a war
He made…prices soar.
He…started wars
But when…called to serve
He claimed…fake bone spurs
He’ll get…what he deserves.
Oooh what a wretched man he is.
Oooh what a wretched man he is.
He bends…legislation
Through…manipulation
His…retribution
Is mass…confusion
His army’s…called ICE
They’re not men…but mice
Masking…their faces
Apprehending…by races
Oooh what a wretched man he is.
Oooh what a wretched man he is.
He…must like his face
It’s now…everyplace
From dollars…to buildings
A national…disgrace
Oooh what a wretched man he is.
Oooh what a wretched man he is.
