I need a new press story
Got stuff ‘bout Comey off my chest
Being POTUS is so boring
Need something about ISIS
My orange face now turns red
From all the lies that I have said
It wasn’t classified, I swear
Thought you saw me wink,
My mind is o’er the brink, so

Tell me what Vlad wants to hear
Some secrets that will light those ears
I know it’s sick but I’m sincere
I’m gonna give all my secrets away
This time, Intelligence don’t lie
Exposed our sources, that’s just fine
I’m gonna give all our secrets away

No one knows how we got this far
Team’s weaker than Apprentice stars
Secret Service driving big black cars
And everyday I tweet the news
Fake News keeps off’ring diff’rent views
My ego don’t like compromise
Spicer’s covers worth an Oscar prize
It’s really getting very old
Don’t really like my flow, no, so

Tell me what you want to hear
Got away with lying all those years
It’s hard for me to fake sincere
I’m gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don’t need a perfect lie
Fox & Friends will jump in line
I’m gonna give all my secrets away

Oh, got no reason, got no shame
Nepotism I can’t blame
Don’t want Ivanka to appear
My son-in-law will tell you everything
Just tell him what you want to hear
Doing biz with Russia many years
This is my voter’s greatest fears
I’m gonna give all my secrets away

This time, don’t need another perfect lie
Sean - Kellyanne won’t get it right
I’m gonna give all my secrets away
What’s the prosecutor want to hear
I’ll even delight Schumer’s ears
Shift into impeachment gear
I’m gonna give all my secrets away
This time, a settlement and I’ll resign
Just let this big fish off the line
I’m gonna give all my secrets away

All my secrets away, all my secrets away
