A CLEAR & PRESENT DANGER

An evil heart 
An evil soul
Don’t listen to 
The lies he’s told.

Nothing sacred
Loyal or true
He’s playing with
The likes of you.

Don’t be a lamb
One of his sheep
He’s nothing but
A lying creep.

He’ll lead you on
Won’t tell the truth
When he’s done
He’ll turn on you.

Vindictive, cruel
A psychopath 
When you fall
He’ll grin, he’ll laugh.

No respect
He has no standards
He’s a clear
And present danger.

We’re going to lose
Democracy
He’ll set us back
We won’t  be free. 

No respect for
Women’s rights
Welcomes chaos
Wants to fight. 

Holding us back
Negating our progress
A fifty year struggle
Now lies  behind us. 

Wants control 
Thrives on power
Don’t bow to him
Don’t dare to cower. 

Use your vote
Don’t let him win
Take back your rights
Be rid of him.
