Marvin Gaye’s “I Heard It Through The Grapevine” inspired this take on Trump’s introduction to intelligence

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hajBdDM2qdg

I bet you’re wonderin’ how we knew
Clapper, Yates, and Comey, too
The intel briefings you skipped before
We shared our plans, and much much more
You know we’re U.S. spies, you act surprised
Flynn knew we knew, and still denies
Here’s how: we heard it through the grapevine
You’re innocent, you should be just fine
Might be your Russian campaign grapevine
If that’s real, your choice might be resign

Donny, Donny yeah.

Carter Page is implicated too
Roger Stone, we just might prosecute
Manafort, still calm as he can be
AG Jeff , “You cannot question me”
Execu-privilege for yourself
Get what we need from someone else
That’s right, we heard it through the grapevine
You think you’re clear, but there’s no stop sign
Odds are your Russian campaign grapevine
The investigation’s going fine

Donny, Donny yeah.

You like to say “believe not what we see”
And you hope we won’t trust what we hear
Your cover-up, we’re s’posed to go along
But we know what’s right from what is wrong
So don’t expect us to let it go
Your gang and kids will be in tow

Oh yes, we heard it through the grapevine
We’ve got facts, your team sure crossed the line
Treason? Your Russian campaign grapevine
When you hear, you just might lose your mind

Donny, Donny yeah.
