This is meant to be a pop-rock ballad like Pulp’s Common People. That’s the goal, at least. Something rocking that tells a story, in this instance something political.
Russian Collusion
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform
the year was 2016 and we thought
that Hillary Clinton was a sure shot
then things began to go haywire
with emails, emails, emails, emails
Trump told us all with great gaul
that he wanted the Russians to release
all of Clinton’s lost emails
but the evidence shows much more
Trump wanted to win no matter what
so he broke the law
I’m talking about
Russian collusion
Russian collusion
Russian collusion
we all it’s real
we all see it happened
it’s all something we know is true
how else do you explain how Trump divides us so
by now we all know it by rote
we need to see the truth
the facts are a big discrace
the sooner we see the facts
the sooner we can fix this problem
we can scream and shout all we want
but the Russian are complicit in this mess
so it all makes me want to hiss
I’m talking about
Russian collusion
Russian collusion
Russian collusion
we all it’s real
we all see it happened
[bridge]
we’re all going to have to fight
fight for what is right
we can let’em get us down
things will get better if we vote, vote, vote
we need to lace up our shoes
get ready to protest in the streets
when Mueller releases the deets
when Mueller releases the deets
when Mueller releases the deets
