No Business Like Swamp Business

NO BUSINESS LIKE SWAMP BUSINESS There’s no business like Swamp faux business There’s none do such a show Everything about it is illusion Everything about it is a lie Where else could you get such righteous feeling Than when you’re kneeling; no reason why This swamp business is trompe business * Just like a film studio They can turn the Congress to a fortress though They’re sitting pretty and in full flow Like a new production of the Alamo They go on with the show There’s no business like Joe business He knows how to pro quo Keeps his family well fed in gravy While he makes out like an average schmo Long career in congress plagiarising Politicising What else to show? There’s no business like vote business He hides in basement low While his thinking got more than a little bent His words more prone to an accident Next day in the White House he’s the President He goes on with the show * That’s ‘trompe’ (not Trump!) as in ‘trompe d’oeil
