Sung to the tune of Oh My Darling, Clementine

Oh my faux king
Oh my faux king
Oh my faux king, Donald Trump
Current tweeting self defeating
“Stop The Count” makes you a chump

Donald, get real
Lose “Stop The Steal”
’Cause we all know who’s the thief
’less your fleecing will be ceasing
You’re a Nixon, Crook in Chief

There’s another
Don, you mother ..
“Stop The Fraud” confused young Don
Taught in swaddle, business model —
All his sibs know — is the con

Oh my faux king
Oh my faux king
Oh my faux king, Donald Trump
Didn’t choose you, s’pose you could sue,
Don’t expect a Supreme bump.

In the White House
With the First Spouse
Acting like you’re royalty
They said “yes, Sir,” whispered “bone spur,”
Learned from you fake loyalty
