I didn’t wear a MAGA hat
I live in a BLUE state
I didn’t want to be accused
Of racism and hate
And even though the candidate
Of course, didn’t stand for that
I thought, “Why be provocative
And wear a MAGA hat?”
No stickers on my bumper
My Prius didn’t need it
And then there was the likelihood
That someone would have keyed it
No yard signs on my plastic grass
To show affiliation
I kind of like my neighbors
And who wants a confrontation
I’ll write on social media
Behind a nom de plume
My co-workers will never know
“That guy” is in the room
I’ll stay out of Seattle
And certain parts of Boston
I’ll visit some of Texas
But keep avoiding Austin
We’re evenly divided
Say the polls in this great nation
So why is it “the other side”
Shows no such hesitation
They shout and keep demanding
Employers not desert them
Throw stones with growing confidence
That no one’s going to hurt them
Eliminate all doubt
And put my theory to the test
Take a walk and wear a Star of David
On your chest
I’m not proud of a lot
But first of all is that
I never even had the guts
To wear a MAGA hat
