Desiree Richardson's vocals are masterful!
Kudos to Mark, Ben, and Nick for the excellent solos!

Viewers of Rachel Maddow will catch the shout out.

lyrics

There's a guy in Washington
Tells little lies and great big ones
Supposed to be the president but there is doubt
You can't believe a word that comes from his mouth

The local paper kept a count
He's past 20,000 three years out
His version of the truth is truly foul
You can't believe a word from his mouth
Not a word from his mouth

Distract, deflect, and delay
All he does everyday
Acts like a king but he's hardly a prez
So keep your eyes on what he does and not what he says

Refuses to listen refuses to read
Refuses all responsibility
His lies are meant to hide his heinous ways
On Nov. 3rd let the voters say:
Don't go away mad- just go away!

Refuses to govern Refuses to lead
Refuses all responsibility
Every conversation is a tweet or a shout
Throw that big bully from the people's house

When the truth is inconvenient he let's 'em fly
There's gonna be a reckoning by and by
If you're looking for integrity there's a drought
Never can believe a word from his mouth
Oh no, not a word from his mouth
