Orange Man

Yellow fever, the Red Scare
You’d think we’d evolved from there
Fear itself in the home of the brave
Agent Orange, greenhouse effect
White Power tower architect
Washington rolling in his grave
There’s an orange man in the White House they say
He won’t let laws and facts get in the way
The world is waiting, patiently they pray
For the orange man’s impeachment day
Black Mirror, white noise
The forked-tongued orange man’s voice
Spewing out alternative facts
Red Alert at Bowling Green
Obsolete and so obscene
Fabricated terrorist attacks
There’s an orange man in the White House they say
He won’t let laws and facts get in the way
The world is waiting, patiently they pray
For the orange man’s impeachment day
Code Orange, Code Green, Code Red
“World War III,” his tweet said,
“Unless you grant me supreme power”
Both the red states and the blue
Terrorized by what he’ll do
It's not the country’s finest hour
There’s an orange man in the White House they say
He won’t let laws and facts get in the way
The world is waiting, patiently they pray
For the orange man to go away

Already Late

Already late
The time was ripe but now it’s decaying
What can be saved?
The party’s over – nobody’s staying
Follow the leader over headstones
Fall into the open grave
No one saw it coming
And no one’s left to blame
Not a hard sell
Take advantage of all those afraid
Living in shells
Over-armed and underpaid
Follow the leader over headstones
Fall into the open grave
No one saw it coming
And no one’s left to blame
And no one's left

USA

Back in the USA
After a long, long while
Show was over when I started to play
They didn’t like my style
“No one wants to hear sad songs on a sunny Saturday”
Back in the USA
Back on Election Day
The celebrations begin
I heard an ex-vice president say,
“Careful, he could win”
And after all the shock and awe
He was here to stay
Back in the USA
Back from the USA
Pain and pleasure dome
I was not running away
I was coming home
Though you are so far away
You are with me now
And I’m sure you can heal somehow
