This is my attempt to write a Kanye West type song. I’m kind of full of rage about someone telling me to just enjoy the “humming” economy and get laid while Trump destroys the nation I love, so this is my attempt to, in verse, give a response. I have no beats and think of this as a first draft, but I think the concept is strong, if nothing else.
Laid
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform
you tell me to enjoy the humming economy
get laid and forget it all
this is crazy, motherfucker
this is crazy can’t you see
Trump is destroying the nation we both love
you want me to flee but I won’t
you tell me to enjoy the hum job
that I’m forced to give
not going to slob Trump’s knob
I’m nobody’s bitch and I don’t snitch
I’m going to fight on the beaches
till the blood is drained from my body
there’s nothing you can say or do
to prevent me from going to the polls
you tell me just to get laid
you tell me just to get laid
like any woman I was with
wouldn’t want to give Trump a fit
the humming economy is Obama’s
I’m not going to slob Trump’s knob
fuck Trump and his ilk
why they tax the solar panels
as the world burns
we’re all in a lump of coal in space
burning fast under the sun’s heat
you tell me just to get laid
you tell me just to get laid
like any woman I was with
wouldn’t want to give Trump a fit
we’re all fighting the good fight
nothing is going to change while we’re in chains
going to the polls to make a difference
my sisters and brothers know the truth
we know what we got to do
you tell me just to get laid
you tell me just to get laid
like any woman I was with
wouldn’t want to give Trump a fit
