The Lyrics
This is dedicated to all the people, places and ideas that Donald Trump insulted and denigrated throughout his campaign for President. Special thanks to the NY Times for their list of those insulted by Trump....I don't think I could have come up with all that material on my own!
Bernie Sanders, DNC, Rand Paul, the TPP
John Kasich, Lincoln Chaffee, Marco Rubio
Joe Biden, Mike Morrell, Mark Cuban, Brent Bozell
North Korea, all the people down in Mexico
Hillary's e-mails, Wall Street Banks too-big-to-fail
Ca-rl Camerone, and the debate microphone
Cory Booker, Meet the Press, political correctness
Krauthammer, early voting, "Grab her by the pussy!"
Donald Trump says "You're Fired"
And it isn't funny, he's got all that money
Donald Trump says "You're Fired"
No we do not like him
and we're going to fight him
Katie Couric, Joy Behar, women and Obamacare
Bobby Jindal, Insiders, just the basic facts
China, Bloomberg, Nikki Haley, Katy Tur
Huma Abadein, all the Super PACs
Paul Ryan, SNL, poor old Judge Curiel
Barack Obama & Michelle, Alec Baldwin, George Will
Joy Reid, Lawrence O'Donnell on "The Last Word"
Frank Luntz, Kasie Hunt, Ruth Bader Ginsberg!
Donald Trump says "You're Fired"
And it isn't funny, he's got so much money
Donald Trump says they're fired
No, we don't support him and we should abort him.
John McCain, The Daily News, Mikka B. and Ted Cruz
NATO and Palestine, Colin Powell, New York Times
Medicare, Rick Perry, the Generals, John Kerry
Charles Blow, Politico, also Rachel Maddow
Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush, Rosie O'Donnel's tush
Amy Schumer, Chuck, and Mayor Bill DeBlasio
Muslims, and the Jews, all the women on "The View"
Lindsey Graham, Morning Joe, Alicia Machado!
Donald Trump says "You're Fired"
And it isn't funny, he's got too much money
Donald Trump wants them fired!
No they do not like him
so they're going to fight him
All the Democratic base, Carly Fiorina's face
MS-NBC, also David Gregory
Saudi Arabia, Refugees from Syria
Protests, Neil Young, Trans-gays-and-lesbians
Pope Francis, Hollywood, cut Planned Parenthood
Medicaid going away, what else left for them to take?
Donald Trump says "You're Fired"
And it isn't funny, he's got too much money
Donald Trump wants us fired
No we do not want him
and we're going to taunt him
Liz Warren, CNN, Chris Christie gone again
Bob Gates, Sandy Hook, Huffington, Facebook
Meghan Kelly, New York Post, all the late-night talk hosts!
Nuke Deals in Iran, Khizr & Ghazala Khan
African-Americans, ISIS and the Taliban
Handicapped, (he) should be slapped for all the girls he grabbed
Punch protesters in the face, immigrants to be displaced
Trump even dissed Al Gore, (we) never seen this shit before!!
Donald Trump says we're fired
He was so insulting, it was so revolting
Donald Trump says we're fired
But when this song is done
Will his lies go on, and on, and on, and on, and on, and on..............
Donald Trump says we're fired
And it isn't funny, he got all that money
Donald Trump wants us fired
Don't know how we'll function with so much corruption.....
DONALD TRUMP??? PRESIDENT??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA............................WTF HAS HAPPENED TO OUR COUNTRY????

Sorry Jeff, alright parody this may be, but America told Hillary "You're Fired!" 4s
That may be....but pretty soon, Trump will show the people, "You're F**ked!"
This is an extremely difficult song to parody and you managed to capture all the personalities and issues of the campaign. I congratulate you for taking on the challenge. As with my "Donald T" parody today, I wonder if the low numbers are for the pacing or the political content.
Awesome. He's really the most ridiculous candidate ever, still somehow he won unfortunately. 5's
I concur with a lot of your parody, and your writing is certainly on point. And I've read some of your back catalog as well. I just wish your pacing was better. To me this was difficult to read since I tend to have a good understanding of an original song's lyric rhythms.
To K. Letterman.....the pacing is very precise....you are probably not phrasing it correctly with my lyrics...or missing the "pickup notes" in parentheses.
Been a minute (years) since Ive commented or written here... terribly difficult song, job well done, not lol funny but doesnt deserve the pile of 1s it has. 5s for some perspective (would be 545 if ppl had voted honestly).
Getting 1's for a political parody means I pissed off the Republicans. That alone is worth it!!
But let's be clear about something. Jeff is the voice of sweet reason, asevidenced by his last comment. All the hostility comes Jeff's critics, not Jeff
Jeff is a Virginia Democrat. What the hell else is there to say?
WDSTF is a b**** of a song to do, but this was well-made indeed. (not just because of the political content)
