Wants us to believe that he understands Janes and Jones

He is tough, he sings "bomb, bomb, bomb;" he is a hero!

He will wage seven wars with a budget far below zero

Today we are going to choose our tomorrow!

No more plunder, no more wars on the borrow!

We shall work harder, smarter; we shall unite
