Today’s GOP
creates farce out of folly
under the sway
of the Orange Svengali
Awake to the woke
in love with sedition
blind to the broke
with no sense of contrition
a party of grievance
feckless and loud
swearing allegiance
to the vain and the proud
Gaetz in the doorway
he covets that gavel
winking at young girls
as Kevin unravels
A chamber of stooges
a congress of cowards
Mitt-less and witless
like Moe and Shemp Howard
No mouths were left gaping
at Beetlejuice Bimbo
hand jobs and vaping
through a national window
Jim Jordan’s a fool
like we’ve never seen
until we lay eyes
on one Majorie Greene
Then there’s the likes
of Tuberville Tommy
fucks with Core
like a one-man tsunami
In today’s GOP
there’s never too far
they’re just crossing the line
to lower the bar
