Lyrics

He’s pulling a Putin Eb
He won’t willingly go F Bb G
He thinks he can rule for life Cmin7
Cause Vladimir told him so F Bb Bb
He’s tearing down democracy Eb F
It was way too democratic you see Bb A G G
But if you’re already you’ll survive C F
If you stroke his…ego. Bb/Bb

He’s unleashing his goons in Minnesota and California F/F
He wants permanent martial law
Don’t say we didn’t warn ya F/F/Bb/Bb
Though dementia is messing up his train of thought Eb/F/B/G
He’s doing what his keepers say
Getting rid of dissenters C7/C7/F/F
In every possible way:

He’s pulling a Putin
He won’t willingly go
He thinks he can rule for life
Cause Fox News told him so
He’s tearing down democracy
It was way too democratic you see
But if you’re already rich you can win
If you stroke his…ego.

He’s not healthy or good looking
Can’t go shirtless on a horse, but
He’ll make the EU and Mexico and Canada
Give us a divorce
He threatens the people
Who are our friends
To distract from selling out Ukraine
He doesn’t want to help them
He don’t care about their pain

He’s pulling a Putin
He won’t willingly go
He thinks he’s a king for life
His cabinet tells him so.
He’s tearing down democracy
It was way too democratic you see
But if you’re already rich you’ll survive
If you stroke his…ego.


While the cost of living
Skyrockets into the air
The oligarchy
Is way too loaded to care
And the people who hoped
He would help them out
By bringing inflation down
Or getting quickly deflated
By this tariff touting clown

He’s pulling a Putin
He won’t willingly go
He thinks he’s the king for life
Cause his voices tell him so
He’s tearing down democracy
It was way too democratic you see
But if you’re already rich you can thrive
If you stroke his…ego.
If you’re already rich you can thrive
If you buy his crypto
If you give him a jet you can thrive
If you stroke his ego.
Just give him your nobel prize and
Still stroke his ego
And let him bomb, bomb, bomb Iran and
Still stroke his ego
Forget about the Epstein files
He’s never gonna go.
