On the First Day of 2.0


So many orders of destruction! We can see the pattern: destroy all opposition, within the government and the nation and the world. Oh, and remove all obstacles to the enrichment of the few and the immiseration of the many. No news here. Just an unprecedented onslaught. Well, since 1933. Forgive me for having smooshed it all into a song.

Lyrics:
ON THE FIRST DAY — MEDLEY

Just before taking office he bullied Tel Aviv
Got a settlement
In exchange for more settlements

On the first day of 2.0, Project 2025
Dropped Paris agreement, saving trillion dollars, losing only one planet
Declared trans people to be nonexistent, like Palestinians
Renamed Denali back to Mt McKinley, erasing first nations,
we’re the only nation on the only planet, which we’ll get to next

All I want is a planet where there’s no indigenous people there
White face, white hands, white sheet ah wouldn’t it be Trumperly

Mass deportation millions doing crimes,
okay I’m lying as I do sometimes,
sure they do our work
But do you really need housing and food?

All I want is to separate
families who I teach you to hate
So I’m rescinding Biden’s reuniting families plan

And you’ll stay with me abso-feckin-lutely still
You won’t notice when I kill
The bill of rights, that’s my skill

All they want is a smart phone app
To apply to enter, well that’s just crap
They’ll only eat your cat and that’s not law and orderly

Reinvigorating Muslim ban you’re hating, yay!
E-racism feels so feckin good

Feck W.H.O.
Who needs health, long as you’ve got your wealth

D-E-I, diversity’s such a lie
Inclusion just makes me cry
And so I reserve equity for me and mine

Declare energy shortage cuz it wasn’t sunny
Opening Alaska’s Arctic wildlife refuge
Kill baby kill
And we’re also taking Mexico’s gulf

If they want it back, help us attack
Panama to show that China can’t use our canal

Billionaires kneelin’ on their knees
I make sure they say pretty please
I take good care of these
Because they are so Trumperly

I’d like to be indictment-free
With a sourpuss’s pardon of my thugs
I’ll let them out, every last lout
And prosecute those who indicted me

Race baitin’ keep on churnin’
Proud Boys keep returnin’
And we’re trollin’, trollin’ make the libtards quiver

Forget the stinkin’ permits
Let the miners mine
We love clean coal

EV’s are for sissies, real Americans love gas
Save the planet, nah, thank you, I’ll pass

Choke holds are in, pronouns are out
More private prisons, profits have risen
If you’ve done nothing wrong then you’ve got
Naught to worry about
And from now on:
You never have to think about others
