[Intro]
There’s a growing erosion in confidence
Having to do with incompetence
Every opening of mouth is evidence
Of our circumstance

[Bridge]
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]

[Verse 1]
Not just a whiff of tariff if
Something is rotten in Denmark
The mark of the devil (ill evil)
Says he will steal (not there’s no deal)
Demand the land of Greenland
Be damned!

[Bridge]
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
There’s a growing erosion (in confidence)
Having to do with (incompetence)
Every opening of his mouth is evidence
(Of our circumstance)

[Bridge]
Can I have the last dance?
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]
(By chance)
The last dance

[Instrumental, Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 2]
Protectionism is not patriotism
Just sad sadism and narcissism
Isolationist wants to self-parish
A parasitic terroristic evangelic tarnish

[Bridge]
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]
(The horror of state terror)
In error…? (The state of terror!)
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
There’s a growing erosion (in confidence)
Having to do with (incompetence)
Every opening of his mouth is evidence
(Of our circumstance)

[Bridge]
Can I have the last dance?
[Instrumental, Guitar Solo]
(By chance)
The last dance
[Break]
A lack of confidence
Taken up residence
A lack of confidence
(Is going down)
Going down all around
(Going down)
Going down, down, down

[Chorus]
There’s a growing erosion (in confidence)
Having to do with (incompetence)
Every opening of his mouth is evidence
(Of our circumstance)

[Outro]
A lack of confidence
Overflowing evidence
A lack of confidence
(Is going down)
Going down all around
(Going down)
Going down, down, down

ABOUT THE SONG

  • Verse 1 (“not just a whiff of tariff,” “something is rotten in Denmark”) suggests serious corruption and dysfunction, not minor issues. The references to tariffs allude to Trump’s trade wars, which hurt the economy more than they helped. The lines about the “devil” and “stealing” hint at Trump’s unethical behavior, and the “Greenland” reference mocks his absurd 2019 idea to buy Greenland — seen as imperialist, ridiculous, and doomed from the start.

  • Chorus (“growing erosion in confidence,” “incompetence”) directly indicts Trump’s leadership style — every time he speaks, public trust worsens, because his incompetence becomes more and more obvious.

  • Bridge (“can I have the last dance”) introduces a metaphor of finality. It’s a request to end this era — “let this be the last dance”, “the last time we have to endure this.” There’s an emotional fatigue, but also hope for closure.

  • Verse 2 (“protectionism is not patriotism,” “sadism and narcissism”) delivers a brutal analysis: Trump’s economic nationalism is portrayed as destructive, selfish, and driven by ego rather than love of country. The “self-perish” line suggests that his policies are self-defeating, leading the nation toward economic and diplomatic isolation and decay.

  • The imagery of “parasitic terroristic evangelic tarnish” implies that Trump’s influence is not only damaging politically and economically, but also contaminates culture and morality — fusing extremism, violence, and distorted religiosity into governance.

  • Break (“lack of confidence, taken up residence”) emphasizes that public distrust is no longer an occasional problem — it’s now permanent and pervasive under Trump’s leadership. The repetition of “going down” evokes a sinking ship — a country in freefall.

  • Final Chorus and Outro hammer the point home: the nation is crumbling under the weight of incompetence, dishonesty, and chaos. The evidence is overwhelming, the fall inevitable.

[Verse 1]
Standing at the podium
Spouting out about
Ad nauseam
And raising doubt

[Chorus]
Gawking bird
(Squawking the absurd)
Squawking bird
(No truth in word)
Word.

[Verse 2]
Trying to address
Failing to impress
Rhetoric and lies
Need to die
(Realize!)
Try!

[Chorus]
Gawking bird
(Squawking the absurd)
Squawking bird
(No truth in word)
Word.

[Bridge]
Spouting out
(Casting doubt)
Can’t figure out
(A word that you say)
Any way
(Anyway)
Not another day
(No, no way)

[Chorus]
Gawking bird
(Squawking the absurd)
Squawking bird
(No truth in word)
Word.

[Outro]
Absurd squawking bird
(No truth in word)
Word.

ABOUT THE SONG

  • Verse 1 (“standing at the podium, spouting out about ad nauseam, and raising doubt”) sets the scene: Trump at his podium, speaking at length — often repeating himself, overwhelming audiences with endless talking points, and most importantly, sowing confusion and distrust.

  • Chorus (“gawking bird / squawking the absurd / no truth in word”) paints Trump as a loud, attention-grabbing figure — much like a noisy bird — whose statements are full of absurdities and falsehoods. The repetition of “Word” at the end emphasizes the hollowness of his speech, as if even the act of “speaking” has lost its meaning.

  • Verse 2 (“trying to address, failing to impress, rhetoric and lies need to die”) points out that while Trump may have tried to tackle serious issues, his reliance on bombast, misinformation, and self-promotion led to failure to inspire trust or confidence. There’s a plea for honesty and clarity (“Realize! Try!”), suggesting frustration with his unwillingness or inability to do better.

  • Bridge (“spouting out, casting doubt, can’t figure out a word that you say”) highlights how his speech often seemed incoherent or contradictory — to the point where listeners struggled to follow or believe anything being said. The repeated feeling of “not another day” expresses weariness and desperation from the public.

  • Chorus and Outro (“absurd squawking bird / no truth in word”) drive home the image of Trump’s press conferences as a noisy spectacle of nonsense and lies, offering no real leadership or communication, only empty, chaotic sound.

[Verse 1]
Under the command (of man)
The commander in chief
Offers no relief (just grief)
From what I can understand
(He can’t command)

[Bridge]
Oh (no!) He doesn’t understand

[Chorus]
So our going gets tough
As he makes it rough
Uncle! (Sam) We’ve had enough
(Oh) Please let go
(Set me free! Let us be!)

[Verse 2]
The damned do demand
The commander in chief
Remove faith in belief
(Oh) The message they send…
They can’t comprehend
Bringing on The End

[Bridge]
Oh (no!) Man doesn’t understand

[Chorus]
So our going gets tough
As he makes it rough
Uncle! (Sam) We’ve had enough
(Oh) Please let go
(Set me free! Let us be!)

[Outro]
Oh (no!) Man doesn’t understand
They can’t comprehend
Bringing on The End

ABOUT THE SONG

  • Verse 1 (“Under the command of man,” “commander in chief offers no relief”) suggests that while Trump holds the title of Commander in Chief, he provides no real leadership, comfort, or solutions — only grief and hardship. The line “He can’t command” underlines a view that he lacks the ability or competence needed for serious leadership.

  • Bridge (“Oh no! He doesn’t understand”) bluntly states that Trump does not grasp the gravity or complexity of his responsibilities, leaving the country rudderless.

  • Chorus (“our going gets tough as he makes it rough,” “Uncle Sam, we’ve had enough”) captures a sense of national exhaustion — the harder things get for Americans, the more Trump’s actions exacerbate the suffering. The call to “let go” and “set me free” reflects a desperate public desire to break free from his control and failures.

  • Verse 2 (“the damned do demand,” “remove faith in belief”) implies that Trump’s leadership is so corrosive that it leads people to lose faith not just in him, but in the very institutions and ideals he represents. The “message they send” — though urgent — “can’t comprehend” the full consequences of their own actions, meaning both Trump and his supporters may be unknowingly hastening national decline.

  • Bridge and Outro (“bringing on The End”) reinforce that Trump’s inability to understand or lead is portrayed as not just damaging — but potentially apocalyptic, accelerating America’s collapse.

[Intro]
Under control of the resident president
(Nothing is under control)
His role…
(Is out of control)

[Verse 1]
As our eyes roll
(Heads roll)
He’s taking his toll
On our nation’s soul

[Chorus]
Under control of the resident president
(Nothing is under control)
His role…
(Is out of control)

[Bridge]
Chaos (upon us)
Disastrous (economy)
Disastrous (in all we see)
Ridiculousness (mess)
Thick in slapstick

[Verse 2]
Under the control
(Of moles and trolls)
They have no goals
(“Let the heads roll”)

[Chorus]
Under control of the resident president
(Nothing is under control)
His role…
(Is out of control)

[Bridge]
Chaos (upon us)
Disastrous (economy)
Disastrous (in all we see)
Ridiculousness (mess)
Thick in slapstick

[Outro]
Chaos (upon us)
Disastrous (economy)
Disastrous (in all we see)
Ridiculousness (mess)
Thick in slapstick

ABOUT THE SONG

  • Verse 1 (“eyes roll,” “taking his toll on our nation’s soul”) suggests widespread public disillusionment and exhaustion as Trump continues — after already being in power — to further damage the moral and foundational integrity of the country.

  • Chorus (“under control of the resident president / nothing is under control”) is deeply ironic. It highlights a contradiction — although Trump firmly holds presidential power during his second term, the situation feels increasingly chaotic and leaderless, suggesting either heightened incompetence, authoritarian overreach, or both.

  • Bridge (“chaos upon us,” “disastrous economy,” “ridiculousness thick in slapstick”) paints a picture of accelerating societal and economic collapse. The government’s actions seem absurd or clownish, resembling slapstick comedy — but the outcomes are gravely serious and destructive.

  • Verse 2 (“under the control of moles and trolls,” “no goals”) suggests that Trump’s second-term administration is dominated by bad actors, conspiracy theorists, and opportunists — people focused more on disruption and personal gain than on governance, with no real goals other than perpetuating chaos (“let the heads roll”).

  • Repetition of chaos and disaster in the outro emphasizes that disorder and decline are no longer shocking — they have become entrenched and inescapable realities under Trump’s ongoing leadership.
