After hearing about Neil Young refusing to let Donald Trump use “Rockin’ in the Free World”, I wondered how to resolve the problem. After all, an entertaining campaign should have an entertaining song. According to the Fount of All Knowledge, parodies are (mostly) legal under copyright law, so here goes:
There’s colors in his wallet
Green, green, and green
People ridin’ escalators
And it’s gonna be YUUUUUGE
But there’s a campaign sign on the road ahead
There’s a lot of people sayin’ we’d be better off with Jeb
Don’t feel like Ivana,but I am to them
So I try to forget it,any way I can.
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world,
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world,
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world,
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world.
I see a woman in the night
With a weasel in her hand
Under an old street light
Near the Donald’s head
Now she glues it to his scalp, and she’s gone to get a hit
She hates his face,and what she’s done to it
There’s one more weasel
That will never go to school
Never get to fall in love,
Or whatever weasels do.
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world,
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world,
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world,
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world.
We got a twenty percent poll
For the wealthy man
We got losers captured in Vietnam.
We got a party out in the wilderness
Got Mexicans, some of whom are good, I guess.
Got a man of the people, says
“People, you’re fired!”
Got phones to leak,
Got births to inquire.
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world,
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world,
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world,
Keep on rockin’ in the Trump world.
According to news reports, the illustrious Mr. Trump was recently in Scotland, although I was unable to find out whether he said William Wallace was only a war hero because he was hanged, drawn, and quartered. In other news, Jeb “Jeb!” Bush might have a new member of his campaign team:
