Sixteen tons of po-lit-ical shit!

                        When the President’s a felon that’s what we git!

                        Tax cuts for the rich-est on the backs of the poor.

                        and kids bein caged at our Sou-thern bor-der

            Edu-ca-tion and health are goin down the drain

                        cause ev‘-ry Trump ap-point-ee is miss-in’ a brain!

                        Saint Pe-ter, don’t you call us, cause we cain’t come.

                        Gotta save this world for our gra-and-chil-dren!

            Need to take back our po-wer and our li-i-ber-ties.

                        Make de-mands! No more “pretty please“!

                        Stand un-i-ted, every one of us

                        and ne-ver back down just cuz they make a fuss.

            We got a con man pres-i-dent, and corp‘rate cab-i-net.

                        They don’t have a con-science, so they ne-ver re-gret

                        sell-in’ our fu-ture for what-ev-er they c’n get!

                        We gotta let ’em know that we A-AIN’T done YET!!!

            We’re gonna save this pla-net from the likes a these crooks!

                        Im-peach, in-dict ‘n throw all the law books

                        at all a these slime balls and no par-den!

Very Slow->   Gonna save this wo-or-or-orld… for our gra-and-chil-dren!
