A Randy Newman Classic Updated for 2022

TRUMPISTS

Last night I saw Donald Trump on a TV show

With some smartass New York Jew.

And the Jew laughed at Mr. Trump.

The audience laughed at him too.

Well, he may be a crook, but he’s our crook.

If they think they’re better than him they’re wrong.

So I went to the park and I took some paper along

And that’s where I made this song.

_____________

We talk real funny out here.

We pray too much; we watch Fox News.

We’re too dumb to make it in no blue state town.

But we’re keeping the liberals down.

______________

We’re Trumpists.

We’re Trumpists.

And we don’t know our ass from a hole in the ground.

We’re Trumpists.

We’re Trumpists.

And we’re keeping the liberals down.

________________

We got no neck oilmen from Texas.

White Christian people from Tennessee.

Tattooed truckers from everywhere.

They’re just fighting for what they think is fair.

Call them fascists; they don’t care.

They carry weapons, so they’re not scared.

And they’re keeping the liberals down.

______________

We’re Trumpists.

We’re Trumpists.

And we don’t know our ass from a hole in the ground.

We’re Trumpists.

We’re Trumpists.

And we’re keeping the liberals down.

Parody of “Rednecks” by Randy Newman. The song is about fifty years old, but it’s still relevant, even though the target has changed a bit with time.
