Doing Things My Way (3)

Doing Things My Way (3)

A Poem by Bob B

(Can be sung to the melody of Frank Sinatra's "My Way")

 

For TWO years now I've been

The mighty leader of this nation,

But I can't stand it when

I don’t receive great adoration.

 

Believe me when I say

My way's the ALWAYS-best-to-lie way.

And you can do it too

By doing things my way.

 

Mueller is going strong.

I am sick of his damn query.

But they've all got it wrong.

They can't prove their stupid theory.

 

My fans KNOW my style is NOT

A JUST-lay-down-and-die way.

I have gotten by

By doing things my way.

 

My tryst with Stormy and my fling

With that McDougal woman bring

So much grief into my life,

Especially with my wife.

But, nonetheless, I will confess

I love things my way.

 

And now I want my wall;

If I don't get it some will suffer.

I will shut things down

Just to show I'm not a bluffer.

 

You can dupe the world

With simply the "M" "Y" way.

So I will not deny

I love things MY way.

 

I've had to fire more than a few

'Cause they say things that are untrue.

And my toadies on the Hill

All bow down; they know the drill.

They know the ways to get my praise:

Just do things my way.

 

Yes, do things my way.

DOING THINGS MY WAY (1):

(THE INAUGURATION SONG)

 

(Can be sung to the melody of Frank Sinatra's "My Way")

 

And so, I'm standing here

To say an oath and pledge allegiance.

Though some will cry and jeer

And accuse me of malfeasance,

 

The fact that I can stand

Before you now in a tough-guy way

Proves that you can play it through

By doing things my way.

 

Yes, I've stiffed a few,

But that's my disposition.

That's what you have to do

To carry forth your mission.

 

I knew what I was doing;

I was acting in a sly way.

Just do what I tell you

And do things my way.

 

You might not like the things I say

Or what I do, but that's okay.

Celebs like me all have it made.

Just don't drop the masquerade.

It's all the same; just play the game

And do things my way.

 

I've had three wives. So what!

I've had just two divorces.

The news? Don't watch that smut.

I have found better sources.

 

I didn't get this far

By choosing the just-get-by way.

Since life is dog eat dog

Just do things my way.

 

You'll always find someone to cheat.

Remember: don't admit defeat.

There's nothing wrong with being rude.

At times be crass; at times be lewd.

Make up the rules; treat them like fools

By doing things my way.

 

Yes, do things my way.

DOING THINGS MY WAY (2)

(SEVENTEEN MONTHS AFTER THE INAUGURATION)

 

(Can be sung to the melody of Frank Sinatra's "My Way")

 

Despite all that you hear,

I'm doing great; I'm number one now.

My made-up "truths" endear

Me to my base; we're having fun now.

 

My ranting and my raving

Show that mine's not the small fry way.

You'll win…you'll win much more

By doing things my way.

 

I wish the FBI

Would stop investigating.

They know too much. That's why

It is all so aggravating.

 

I never liked a wuss

Who would take the humble pie way.

No, I am much more ruthless

Doing things my way.

 

I've told some lies, once in a while…

Well, every day, but that's my style.

My Congress b***s, have got my back.

At the right time we'll attack.

I plot and scheme for my regime

By doing things my way.

 

Putin's my friend, oh,

And Kim Jong Un and I are buddies.

Merkel and Trudeau?

My goodness, they're such fuddy-duddies.

 

All I have to do

Is just display my evil eye way,

And I'll get what I want

'Cause it is my way.

 

I am the law; that's plain to see.

And very few are smart like me.

I will say what comes to mind,

And I don't care if it's unkind.

A little greed helps you succeed

When doing things my way.

 

Yes, do things my way.
