Scars and Gripes

[VERSE 1]

He tweets from a golden throne, a modern King Midas,
But ev’rything he touches rusts and turns to crisis.
With his vocabulary of a seventh-grade class,
He speaks in gusts of grievance, a toxic, verbal gas.
He sees his worth in inches of crowd and ratings’ grace.
He builds his legacy on sand, in a truthless place.

[CHORUS]

Make America great again!
Great in division! Great in hate!
Great in racism! Great in lies!
Great in ignorance! Great in greed!
Great in vanity! Great in scare
A land, where truth now dies and cries arise!

[VERSE 2]

He promised walls of concrete, raised from fear and bold lies.
To keep the poor and foreign masses from our eyes.
He’d jail his foes and all the women who knew too much.
With a sneer to cameras, a demagogue’s cold touch.
He sowed the seeds of discord in the ripe soil of dread.
And reaped a harvest of cheers for the harsh words he said.

[CHORUS]

Make America great again!
Great in division! Great in hate!
Great in racism! Great in lies!
Great in ignorance! Great in greed!
Great in vanity! Great in scare
A land, where truth now dies and cries arise!

[VERSE 3]

A man of bankrupt deals, of faked fame and phantom wealth,
Who loves his bold signature more than the country’s health.
He shakes the hands of tyrants, adores their iron fist,
While the rules of democracy are slyly dismissed.
He mocks the weak, the soldiers and heroes in the grave.
He claims he’s winning, but doesn’t know how to behave.

[CHORUS]

Make America great again!
Great in division! Great in hate!
Great in racism! Great in lies!
Great in ignorance! Great in greed!
Great in vanity! Great in scare!
A land, where truth now dies and cries arise!

[VERSE 4]

Science is a hoax, he claims, until he needs a cure.
He disunites the states and makes union unsecure.
He waves the bible like a prop and a cheap veneer,
When peaceful voices for their rights had to disappear.
He leaves a trail of paper scraps, promises and scars,
A constellation of failures, visible from Mars.

[CHORUS]

Make America great again!
Great in division! Great in hate!
Great in racism! Great in lies!
Great in ignorance! Great in greed!
Great in vanity! Great in scare!
A land, where truth now dies and cries arise!

[OUTRO]

Scars and Gripes forever!
Scars and Gripes for all!
A march of broken promises,
A nation made so small!
