–

Laughing and clapping

She is such a crook

Send her to jail for all she has took

Call her a savior

But what lies beneath

Behind those bleached teeth

–

The ultimate hoax

Of the most terrible kind

Robs your soul

Troubles your mind

–

Sitting to admire

Her wonderful empire

Of things stolen and destroyed

Keeping everyone employed

–

Not much sympathy in my soul

For those vying for control

Over you and me and trees and flowers

The whole damn thing leaves me sour

–

Yet people run to be first in line

This will continue for quite some time

The world spins on

In such a great sublime

–

These feelings swell in winter season

Defying rational thought and reason

If I may say so myself

I have witnessed this treason

–

The world does not need

Another singer songwriter

One of a million calling out

This I know if forever a doubt

–

Yet stand in attention

And all hail to the chief

If I had known better

I could have known her a thief

–

Making a dollar

Never looked quite so easy

Red dresses worn

So old and sleazy

Crack the code

And underneath we find

The act of betrayal

Leaving the mind

Left to stale

But now let us curtail

This power and drab

We were all given

The gift of gab

–

So gab it on the mountain

Proclaim it free

Don’t let this truth die

Between you

and me

–

Let the words flow out

As the pouring rain

Let it put out the fire

Of deceit and of pain

–

For I know no truth

This I must hold true

But deceit is deceit

And behold

I have told you
