An old man yearned to be great
He wanted Ottawa and he tried to dictate
Just a brash guy from the USA
Using retro jargon 'bout a fifty-first state

And isn't it moronic? Don't you think?
Wrecking trade cos he's mad one day
Setting tariff hikes – so there's more to be paid
Is it bad advice? Does he just make mistakes?
Well Canada won't be triggered!

Mr Real Estate was a made-up guy
He bragged of new crusades, he fixed up alibis
Created a load of strife – all bark not bite
And as his polls crashed down, he sought a counterstrike

And isn't it moronic? Don't you think?
Changing names on a waterway
Out of sheer spite, when you don't get your way
It's a lame device, trying to mess with a lake
A puny retort – that figures!

Well, Trump has a funny way of makin' a blunder of a thing - like a pond or strait – then pickin' another fight!
And, Trump has a funny way of chickenin' out, whimperin' – when the thing's gone wrong, and everything blows up in his face

Canada's no American state
And Ontario - you'll find -'s, still the name of the lake
The Canucks he lampoons will match an eye for an eye
Defeating his pantomime schemes, and then keeping their elbows up high

And isn't it moronic? Don't you think?
A little hegemonic, and yeah, I really do think

He's like pain when it won't go away
He's the pesky fly that you can't seem to spray
He's the parasite that you just couldn't shake
But Canada won't be triggered!
