Hi all
Here's my entry for Open Mic Week 19. (I say Week 18 in the video; sorry I lost track of the weeks.)
The Spanish verse translates to something like "Enrique explained we aren't going to pay, I'd like to be friends but you're beginning to annoy me"
suggested I post the lyrics :)
He Tweets – words and music by Ken Davis
Verse 1
Ol' Donny said he'd build a wall and we shouted out with glee
"tell Mexico to pay for it all, they surely would agree"
Enrique nos explico que no iban a pagar, quiero ser amigos pero usted me fastigar
Chorus
And he tweets, he tweets, the president tweets, he tweets out all his rage
He tweets, he tweets, the president tweets, a canary in a cage
And here we sit in a bucket of spit and cannot walk away
Verse 2
Oh Mustafa tried to come here and so did Roshni
They packed up all their dreams to come to the land of the free
But Bannon slammed the door in their face and said "not today"
He stood with a grin and a bottle of gin and drove them all away
Chorus
And he tweets, he tweets, the president tweets, he tweets out all his rage
He tweets, he tweets, the president tweets, a canary in a cage
And here we sit in a bucket of spit and cannot walk away
Verse 3
Then Kellyann Conway said in an interview today,
there was a massacre in Kentucky which made us think this way
But no such thing ever happened, it was all fake news you see
Putin planted the story so we would elect Donny T
Chorus
And he tweets, he tweets, the president tweets, he tweets out all his rage
He tweets, he tweets, the president tweets, a canary in a cage
And here we sit in a bucket of spit and cannot walk away
Verse 4
Then Donny called the Aussie's and he said "screw this dumb deal"
And the people in America truly began to squeal,
We love our roos and Dundees and love to Waltz Matilda
So please Mr. President whatever you do, don't invade Australia
Chorus
And he tweets, he tweets, the president tweets, he tweets out all his rage
He tweets, he tweets, the president tweets, a canary in a cage
And here we sit in a bucket of spit and cannot walk away
Verse 5
It was when he bombed Chicago, we the people understood
We gave away our freedom, we gave it away for good
For we no longer have to think, do math or read or write
We go to work everyday and go to our cells at night
Chorus
And he tweets, he tweets, the president tweets, he tweets out all his rage
He tweets, he tweets, the president tweets, a canary in a cage
And here we sit in a bucket of spit and cannot walk away
And here we sit in a bucket of spit and cannot waltz away
Many thanks to for running this and to
for generously supporting it.
Good luck to all.
Enjoy the day and Steem on brothers and sisters, Steem on.
