Lyrics[edit | edit source]
The thermometer burns
And my tide never turns
The same old president
Is causing me to bend
He called the other night
That pedophile
More pretty words that don't mean F
They told me to watch out
From what he talks about
But he just grabbed again
Me by the pussy, man
I recognized the style
More pretty words that don't mean F
Chorus:
"What if his tie's red & long?"
Don't mean that he ain't wrong.
"And what if he's a billionaire?"
Doesn't mean he has to glare.
I heard so many talks
From Kanye West and Fox,
I felt like such a herd
When I heard "Black Skinhead"
He hides behind
More pretty words that don't mean F
Chorus:
"What if he's a Liberal?"
"And what if he bombs Taylor Swift?"
We will set the Don adrift.
The thermometer burns
And my tide never turns
The same old president
Is causing me to bend
He called the other night
That pedophile
More pretty words that don't mean F
A cuss word that's making me deaf
He is more Liberal than Chef
