"You should write a song about Trump!!!"
"WWJD?"
Ya.
Here you are. Posted this song about #trump #fuckwad #45 a while ago, but needed a good audio recording so Neale Eckstein and I figured, as we usually do, might as well shoot video.
You can hear it live Friday, November 3rdin Plainfield, Vt,
Saturday in Franklin, MA at Circle of Friends
Or Sunday in Brighton, MA.
Msg me for details.
Enjoy.
PS of course you are invited to share this.
ps Thanks Steve Jagoda for letting me chop up and repurpose his drum tracks from another song.
pos Thanks Neale Eckstein for shooting the video, mixing the audio...
Lyrics:
He Won (c) 2016 Eric Schwartz
Let me get this straight
Just so we're on the same page.
Make sure We’re Talking about the same guy, weasel with raccoon eyes
Small hands and skin that gets more orange with age
I must have clouds in my ears
Or maybe gotten too much sun
Cuz I could have sworn I heard you say He won.
I’m uncannily perceptive
I’m pretty much as hip as can be
I give sight to the blind, turn water into wine
And have a thing for takin
long, slow walks on the sea
I got a great sense of humor
I have to. I'm my fathers son
But I can’t tell if you’re punking me. He won?
You wanna tell me what happened?
Did I not articulate?
I thought we were clear on The concepts
You know, good and evil,
love and hate
Don’t you know this dude
Could do some damage
And it may not be so easily undone
Disappointment doesn’t
Cover it. (reaping and sowing yadda yadda)
He won?
There's an angel,
name of Satan
He and I made a bet
He said that my disciples (followers)were hypocrites.
And that darkness
would win yet.
So he fashioned him
A candidate
He said “This’ll be fun”
Guess I owe satan
a phone call
I concede.
He won.
