This was written a few years ago as you’ll see from the date but still fits today
All you do is give us news that’s fake
‘Cos that’s so much easier to make
Misinformation on everything
The lies you peddle have a familiar ring
Here you go talking alternative facts
To try to paper over the cracks
Do you think about the promises you made
Before you took on this masquerade?
Gonna build a wall, to keep you out
Gonna build a wall, when you’re about
Gonna build a wall, to hide behind
Gonna build a wall, ’til you change your mind
You say one thing but mean another
You call for war, insult my brother
Don’t know where your ship is sailing
Try to keep us out but your plan is failing
The pen you wave is all for show
Don’t mean a thing while the bars so low
You do it all with so much fuss
You do it for you and never for us
Gonna build a wall, to keep you out
Gonna build a wall, when you’re about
Gonna build a wall, to hide behind
Gonna build a wall, ’til you change your mind
Your sloppy lies and your slipshod ways
Blur my mind, leave me in a daze
You underestimate the job you have to do
Admit it now you don’t have a clue
Move away from the path you’re on
Time to sing a different song
Got to understand what the words mean
If you don’t know you have to come clean
Gonna build a wall, to keep you out
Gonna build a wall, when you’re about
Gonna build a wall, to hide behind
Gonna build a wall, ’til you change your mind
