Leader of the Cult

(This poem can be sung to the tune of the Shangri-La's 1964 pop hit "Leader of the Pack.")

Are they really voting for him?

Well, yes, they are. Just ask them.

Voters, are those MAGA hats that you're wearing?

Hm-hmmm…

Gee, it must be strange voting for him.

Did you think he'd make the country great again?

Uh-huh.

Tell us why you support him.

 

We watch him on the TV screen.

It seems his simple words ring true--

That's what we think. (Yes, you do.)

That's why we follow (the LEADER OF THE CULT).

 

He says that he is the chosen one (one, one).

And knows how the country ought to be run.

(Whaddya mean when he says he knows how the country should be run?)

He says he can't do wrong--

That with him we'll be strong.

That's why we follow (the LEADER OF THE CULT).

 

He says the president's like a king.

Silencing his critics is his thing.

(Whaddya trying to say when you say he's like a king?)

He will defy Congress, he said.

And that's how we will get ahead.

That's why we follow (the LEADER OF THE CULT).

 

He doesn't care if Russia's involved

In our elections--that's all right.

In his opinion, Russia is absolved.

If he acts out of spite,

As long as he wins, that'll be delight!

 

Right now! Right now! Right now! Right now!

 

He says that his intentions are real.

We don't care what things he tries to conceal.

We'll let him get his way;

We're going to do whatever he'll say.

We will always follow (the LEADER OF THE CULT).
