You've got to admire their ease and their skill
Putting the kibosh on the Donald's Russ frill.
A leak here, a blab there, a frown, a report,
Were enough to circuit his policy short.
The Wall will be built and Repeal's a go,
But his one stab at peace just got the heave-ho.

'Cause now if he tries to de'tente it with Putin,
(Redeeming ideal 'cause of which lots were rootin'),
He'll take all manner of heavy pol weather,
As both big parties and Obama together
Squall it's a payback for swinging elections,
Those two creeps dissing our sacred selections.

It's a cowardly play, when you think it all through,
Cooking the opinion of anti-Russ stew.
For basic bald argument won't do the trick,
Not for anyone with common-sense shtick,
Which concludes that Russia ain't enemy one,
Nor two, three nor five, and might even be fun.

Fun to cure Syria and a zap a few raddies,
Retire most nukes of which there's some baddies,
To get rid of Nato and save some big bucks,
To close lots of bases and save more big bucks.
All good if a prez will change defense tactic,
But war is a biz and peace ain't a racket.

So it seems America's lost its last chance,
With The Hair in charge at whom all look askance,
As if the country were a lady of means,
Re-worked, nipped and tucked till her new mug quite seems
To be made from Godzilla with soupcons of Drac,
All essence erased, our friends taken aback.
