This just me screwing around, trying to tell a story in verse. That’s all. Nothing more. I just find writing lyrics relaxing even if no one cares that I’m writing them. These lyrics are about how Trump supporters have been duped by the long con of Trump.
The Long Con
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform
he comes in on a horse
telling them what they want to know
they flock to his side
they don’t care what he has to say
as long as he makes them feel great
the long con is the term
it’s enough to make them squirm
the long con is the phrase
that explains, explains, explains
we’re all having a fright
from which they get great delight
knowing they own the night
they have control of the nation
so they allow him to abuse his station
the long con is the term
it’s enough to make them squirm
the long con is the phrase
that explains, explains, explains
[bridge]
in the end
they’ll regreat
what they’ve done
don’t you fret
for the time being
we have to wait
for them to catch up with fate
will it ever happen
that’s the question
we’re just going to have to see
which way goes the breeze
