It’s so nice to finally have my Adobe app back on the PC at home (thank you Evan IT guy for figuring out what was blocking it from re-loading here after my Windows crash a little while ago and also for not wanting to kill me and my needy)
So much better to “sing” pieces and then get to come home and relax with the editing and a building over a beer or two and a Cricket on a lap and a Bella on a futon, humans, as always, relegated to whatever’s.
Anyway, I took my version of Sammy Davis Junior’s “The Candy Man” from last month, The GOP Can, and reworked it for our dear wished new great leader Ron DeSantis.
Oh what a savior he promises to be … in the worst of possible world.
Alright everybody
Gather round DeSantis man is here
Now what kinda country he want?
Ignorant, compliant, revised history, brainwashed
A Fourth Reich?
He’s working on a right plan because only DeSantis can
—
Who can take agenda (who can take agenda)
Of a fascist POTUS dream (a fascist POTUS dream)
Put it into practice Flor-ida a test run scheme
The Ronnie can (the Ronnie can)
Oooh DeSantis he can (DeSantis he can)

Test there his despot plan, prove self a new strongman
—
Who can make the classroom (who can make the classroom)
A site of culture wars (a site of culture wars)

DeSantis projects into classroom learning texts
Indoctrination’s pre-text

And then he just bakes everything at stake
A vision’s cake of normal crumblin’
He’ll make the gays and blacks go runnin’
Applaud him please for his true cunnin’
—

Of a shit COVID response (a shit COVID response)

Collateral damage was always part of the plan
No worries if base at hand

That his was one of real gold standard
Integrity it must be mastered
The big lie being votes true bastard
—

One thought on “The DeSantis He Can (song)”
