i need some help fixing this up:
Yo ho ho in a Florida dump
Hoist your golf club, here is Trump
Making room at Mar-a-lago for Vladimir
You're his witness
Trump's your Putineer
Mein Kampf stands on his own night table
He's commending Hitler when he's able
Says he always admires Vladimir
You're his witness
Trump's your Putineer
Long ago we laughed at his eyes
But voters voted and he began the Lies
Who'd have thought we'd ever wind up here
You're his witness
Trump's your Putineer
So now he's running to rock the boat
Some may sink but we still can vote
Grab your coat, let's mark our ballot here
You're his witness
Trump's your Putineer
You're his witness
Trump's your Putineer
Trump's your Putineer

"I'm the Grim Reaper now, Mitch. Step aside."

Death to #TzarVladimirtheCondemned!

Our Putineer
ok, some adjustments:
Yo ho ho! from a Florida dump
Hoist your golf club, here is Trump
Reserving Mar-a-lago for Vladimir
While we all witness
Trump's our Putineer
Mein Kampf stands on his own night table
He's praising Hitler when he's able
Says he always admires Vladimir
And we all witness
Trump's our Putineer
Long ago we laughed up in his eyes
But voters voted and he began the Lies
Who'd have thought we'd ever wind up here
As we all witness
Trump's our Putineer
So now he's running to rock the boat
Some may sink but we still can vote
Grab your coat, let's mark our ballot here
As we all witness
Trump's our Putineer
As we all witness
Trump's our Putineer
Trump's our Putineer

Re: Our Putineer

Percy writes:
Never heard of Warren Zevon. That's really him singing in the YouTube video? Sounds like Bob Dylan to me, so I would have assumed anything I heard on the radio by him was Dylan.
Percy, I posted youtube videos of both Warren singing it and Bob Dylan singing it. Hope you didn't get confused.
Edited by xongsmith, : No reason given.

I tell people I'd rather have them come to my funeral than have to go to theirs.
Didn't Yogi Berra once say something like
"You better go to their funerals or they won't go to yours."?
Ah, the goo-goo-Googlyplex tells me it was
"Always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't come to yours."

Re: Our Putineer
ok, some more updated adjustments:
Yo ho ho! from a Florida dump
Hoist your golf club, here comes Trump
Preparing Mar-a-lago for Vladimir
While we all witness
Trump's our Putineer
Mein Kampf stands on his own night table
He's praising Hitler when he's able
Says he's got some boxes for Vladimir
And we all witness
Trump's our Putineer
The August search by the FBI
Found Top Secret pages marked SCI
Who'd have thought we'd ever wind up here
As we all witness
Trump's our Putineer
And still he milks his cultist's boat
Some may sink but we still can vote
Grab your coat, let's mark our ballot here
As we all witness
Trump's our Putineer
As we all witness
Trump's our Putineer
Trump's our Putineer

Edited by xongsmith, : SCI line scans better
