Donald Always Ducked
Look at the president
dressed in patriotic drag
See how he’s bubble wrapped
in his American kilt flag
Notice how he sashays about
in his patriotic beauty pageant dress
Asking you to give your country more,
when he always found a way to give less
With an idiotic wink and an imbecilic nod,
he gives a rich brag claiming he’s a genius
Saying he don’t pay his fair share of taxes
the same as poor working people like us
Telling slyly, with a moronic smile,
scamming Uncle Sam
don’t require much IRS know-how
Donald was always good at the ducking game,
declaring bankruptcy was his favorite Monopoly ploy
Being a Park Place deadbeat,
he didn’t have no Pennsylvania Avenue shame —
a big Boardwalk bully
loves taking away a little Mediterranean kid’s toy
Paying thirty cents on a dollar
can make a lot of small potatoes legally boil,
and kill their
small businesses in a lawsuit lobster embroil
Now, to hear Rambo Trump tell it,
he’s Captain America gung-ho patriotic
The prez’s nose is so flagpole Pinocchio,
there ain’t no fake news doubt about it
As a strapping young man,
he didn’t have much patriotic nerve
No sir ... he finagled five medical deferments
when his country called, asking him to serve
He escaped the war in Vietnam
like a rich, criminal playboy on the lam
Trump always passed the buck,
now he’s got a lot of Rambo patriotic nerve
Donald always ducked
when it came time to do his duty to serve
Now, he’s telling you to stand and observe,
that guy got the red, white and blue nerve
Telling you to stand when the anthem’s heard,
but he sat it out, when it was his time to serve
He says you better not protest kneel
when the country’s flag is raised high,
you must stand and sing of service to give,
if you don’t want your livelihood to die
Trump always passed the buck,
now he’s got a lot of Rambo patriotic nerve
Donald always ducked
when it came time to do his duty to serve
He’s so plastic piously patriotic now,
with Captain America unrighteous indignation
Yet, he wasn’t willing
to make the ultimate sacrifice, no how
He hid that flag on a yacht, sailing to a neutral location
Now, that cowardly Duck got some patriotic nerve;
asking someone to lay down their life,
when he never had the Sgt. York courage to serve
Truth be told: Donald was afraid to die!
The prez can’t question anyone’s patriotic loyalty;
when he had the chance to serve the flag, he ran and hid
Now he hypocritically demands colored cloth fealty,
using the Stars and Stripes to cover his naked cowardice
