We In Deep Trouble
I think we are in trouble
they are all in good spirits
something smells fishy to me
They smile and they tell you
they "will", fix it this time
give them your vote, and you'll see
Each one is claiming
they are without question
so far above all reproach
They wave their credentials
and swear that they're honest
they say they are no cockroach
They are doing some dueling
jockeying for position
all four maybe five that are left
If there is no indictment
by the Justice Department
the White House is guilty of theft
The American people are
the ones that are cheated
a "new prez" won't help things at all
Millions are voting soon
good, bad or indifferent
it's too late to put up a wall
They'll be printed in languages
that are foreign to most locals
the ballots will surely be lost
Count and recount them
til they have what they wanted
for it must be their way at all cost.....
