Politics and language
Seem to go through paths and phases
And I’m thinking we’re now living through
The "Time of Latin Phrases"
For the Congress is deciding
If the President should go
For engaging in discussions
Touching on a quid pro quo
While ignoring, in their frenzy
What his adversary did
Which, when looked at, a piori
Sure sounds like a quo pro quid
For if Hunter had a problem
Sure as shooting Joe would fix it
And this isn’t any rumor
We all heard it ipse dixit
Then some senators wrote letters
Where they tried to up the ante
One was signed by old Pat Leahy
And we caught him in flagrante
Yes, I read the pseudo-transcript
And I’m sorry, truth to tell I
See no legal explanation
For the current casus belli
Sure the papers have opinions
And the editors will write ‘em
But I don’t think they will sway me
If they write ad infinitum
For the planet’s in a crisis
And the polar bears, bereft
And we only have nine years, six months
And forty minutes left
How can Congress be distracted
Their heads buried in the sand
When there’s borders to be opened
Guns to seize and bottles banned?
The radicals are happy
AOC sure thinks it’s neat-o
But if I were Ms. Pelosi
I would exercise my veto
Yes, I’m open to discussion
And I’ll happily relax
If my idiot opponents cease
Ad hominem attacks
