The Lyrics
They sent out a warning; they
Needed protection, but they
Would get in your campaign's way.
Left four to be slain while you preened like whore,
Then blamed free speech the next day.
You blew chunks before; now you
Blow even more, 'cause you
Betrayed our country;
You're toast!
'Cause you left them
Just when they needed you most.
...Left them
Just when they needed you most.
New York, Tuesday morning; they
Saw it all taken away;
Fire-and-flood-wrecked city.
They dig through their dumpsters to keep from starving,
And still lack electricity.
You've failed them now more than you
Failed them before, and you
Will soon be dumped for
Compost!
'Cause you left them
Just when they needed you most.
...Left them
Just when they needed you most.
New storm clouds are forming; they
Are still in mourning, but they
Won't hear a word that you say:
You've wrecked their homeland and you're bleeding them poor.
For all your crimes, you must pay.
You're damned even more than you
Were damned before, and too
When your life's end comes,
You'll roast!
'Cause you left them
Just when they needed you most.
Oh, yeah; you left them
Just when they needed you most.
You left them
Just when they needed you most.
Needed protection, but they
Would get in your campaign's way.
Left four to be slain while you preened like whore,
Then blamed free speech the next day.
You blew chunks before; now you
Blow even more, 'cause you
Betrayed our country;
You're toast!
'Cause you left them
Just when they needed you most.
...Left them
Just when they needed you most.
New York, Tuesday morning; they
Saw it all taken away;
Fire-and-flood-wrecked city.
They dig through their dumpsters to keep from starving,
And still lack electricity.
You've failed them now more than you
Failed them before, and you
Will soon be dumped for
Compost!
'Cause you left them
Just when they needed you most.
...Left them
Just when they needed you most.
New storm clouds are forming; they
Are still in mourning, but they
Won't hear a word that you say:
You've wrecked their homeland and you're bleeding them poor.
For all your crimes, you must pay.
You're damned even more than you
Were damned before, and too
When your life's end comes,
You'll roast!
'Cause you left them
Just when they needed you most.
Oh, yeah; you left them
Just when they needed you most.
You left them
Just when they needed you most.

He is a loving father and husband and many of his governing choices are well intentioned, even when they are unenlightened and ineffective; so I don’t think he will “roast” in the end. It is likely that he won’t even be “toast” after today’s election. But this is very perceptive stuff from an immoral liberal!
