The ladies tell us they resent
The stupid things we say.
And dark-skinned voters represent
A challenge any day.
The way the demographics splay,
It's really looking bad.
We'd better figure out a way
To make more white guys mad.
Our lock upon the one percent
Is not enough to sway
The count. To really make a dent
We're gonna have to play
On primal anger, fears that weigh
On every true blue lad.
It's not enough to cause dismay:
Let's make those white guys mad.
We'll say a Muslim's President.
He comes from far away.
He hates us and won't be content
Till every bride is gay.
Our guns and values he'll betray.
Achievement makes him sad.
Don't worry if it's dumb; just pray
It makes more white guys mad.
Whatever works is A-okay.
If it's untrue a tad,
Who cares? We'll say it anyway
To make more white guys mad.
