The Duke of Mar-A-Lago
(Sung to the tune of Gilbert and Sullivan’s "The Duke of Plaza Toro," from The Gondoliers)
When all the land did take a stand
When bugs we all were fighting
He led the nation from behind
(He found it more exciting)
But when it came to placing blame
His place was in the fore, O!
That pixilated
Bloviated
Overrated
President
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
When faced with real facts, ha, ha!
He never had our backs, ha, ha!
That pixilated
Bloviated
Overrated
Dunderhead
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
Each day in dress he’d meet the press
And boast of all he’d finished
In voice so loud it dulled the crowd
He somehow seemed diminished
He’d rant and howl and shake his jowl
“It’s perfect,” he would roar, O!
That dissipated
Aberrated
Coronated
Pompadour
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
In the first and foremost fight, ha, ha!
He never did what’s right, ha, ha!
That dissipated
Aberrated
Coronated
Chucklehead
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
With jobless rolls and sinking polls
He turned to Doctor Fauci
How could he guess that Dr. F
Would come across so grouchy?
He told what’s true when lies would do
And made The Boss look poor, O!
That hair a’glowin’
Waist a’growin’
Facts unknowin’
Imbecile
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
He promised us a fix, ha, ha!
Then left us in the sticks, ha, ha!
That hair a’showin'
Skin a’glowin’
Waist a’growin’
Nincompoop
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
When to evade destruction’s hand
To act they all proceeded
He told the guvs to just wear gloves
That masks weren’t really needed
Those gowns and gear and outerwear
He’d keep them all in store, O!
That unelected
Disconnected
Misdirected
Idiot
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
To all us simple folks, ha! ha!
He told us it’s a hoax, ha! ha!
That unaffected
Disconnected
Misdirected
Knucklehead
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
He had a plan our man of tan
On Easter Day to open
“This virus, hey, got in my way
It’s not what I was hopin’
But worry not for I have got
A drug to vanquish gore,” O!
That vegetated
Radiated
Pustulated
Counterfeit
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
To men of grosser clay, ha, ha!
He always showed the way, ha, ha!
That vegetated
Radiated
Pustulated
Charlatan
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
To men of grosser clay, ha, ha!
He always showed the way, ha, ha!
That vegetated
Radiated
Pustulated
Dissipated
Aberrated
Coronated
Pixilated
Bloviated
Overrated
Unelected
Unaffected
Disconnected
Misdirected
Hair a’growin’
Skin a’glowin’
Waist a’growin’
Facts unknowin’
Bozo
The Duke of Mar-a-Lago
