The Lyrics
Last fall, while the hope of impeachment still sparked in hearts of Americans, Donald Trump announced he was moving his official residence address from NY to FL. New York rejoiced. I don't recall why I didn't post this while it was still timely.
Most folks wish you'd go away
And they prayed that you would be gone for good
Vacate from each borough and every neighborhood
A persistent blight from the Bronx to the Jersey line
If you leave New York, we don't mind.
Toady to the truly rich
The clown prince of kitsch just knows how to take:
Stiffs waiters, tax cheat, general cheapskate.
We're happy you're leavin',
Don't want you to take much time
Be gone from New York - we won't mind.
You were so sleazy scheming ev'ry day:
Deals with Rooskis, bigots and the rubes.
Now impeachment means that without delay
The Trump Org goes right down the tubes
We'll see if in reality
Palm Beach voters come to abandon you
For shooting dowagers right on Worth Avenue
We pray that 'ere long to prison you're confined
Just not in New York'll be sublime.
Repeat:
You were so sleazy scheming ev'ry day . . . .
And they prayed that you would be gone for good
Vacate from each borough and every neighborhood
A persistent blight from the Bronx to the Jersey line
If you leave New York, we don't mind.
Toady to the truly rich
The clown prince of kitsch just knows how to take:
Stiffs waiters, tax cheat, general cheapskate.
We're happy you're leavin',
Don't want you to take much time
Be gone from New York - we won't mind.
You were so sleazy scheming ev'ry day:
Deals with Rooskis, bigots and the rubes.
Now impeachment means that without delay
The Trump Org goes right down the tubes
We'll see if in reality
Palm Beach voters come to abandon you
For shooting dowagers right on Worth Avenue
We pray that 'ere long to prison you're confined
Just not in New York'll be sublime.
Repeat:
You were so sleazy scheming ev'ry day . . . .

No place knows Trump better than New York, and no place rejected him harder. That speaks volumes.
I agree with Mikey and DeBlasio's daughter is hot! Now I'l just go and stats spanking my sex slave Drew Brees who is now my b****.
Florida has no income tax. New York politicians want a "wealth tax". Donald Trump is not alone in seeking more favorable climes. Wonder if Pharaoh Cuomo will send his "chariots" to drag back the perpetrators of this exodus.
Oh, by the way. When you use a repeat chorus, it's OK to spell it out. Bandwidth is practically unlimited. It will make your works easier to read.
Thanks for giving my song parody a bump. In truth, New Yorkers have always despised pmurt and the very few that previously (wrongly) thought guiliani to be ok have come to loathe him too.
