(Sung as Donald Trump)

Oh Junior, I can feel my power right now
I dreamed my own American Dream
Yeah, McConnell’s my bitch which is such bliss
‘Cause he lets me spew my hate again and again
To Rule as King with no need to pretend
And the Alt-Right’s so blind it can’t see what’s amiss!
I say nyah nyah! Nyah nyah nyah nyah!

The Reigning is the Greatest part
Every slur is my next Trump Card
I betray their faith, I stab them in the heart!
The Reigning is the Greatest part!

And yeah, I ICEd illegals back to Banditoland
To cages where the brown get banned
‘Course the Muslims and Blacks are bad guys, too
Still I have a way to deal with them all and how
White Power is the name of this force I avow
That makes me mad to rule like I rule right now!
I say nyah nyah! Nyah nyah nyah nyah!

The Reigning is the Greatest part
Every stump yields more White support
I betray my Oath to stab them in the heart
The Reigning is the Greatest part!

That China virus keeps killing but I play it down
This scheme is politically sound
My lies make fine MAGAngstas© feel good
But they ain’t FEELING GREAT! like this guy here
Pumped full of Dexamethasone I’ve no sense or fear
So I’ll be spreading my disease to all my peers!
I say pbbbt thbbft! Pbbbt pbbbt thbbft pbbbt!

The Reigning is the Sweetest part
Every lie earns me lots more clout
I betray my Oath to stab them in the heart
The Reigning is the Sweetest part!

I’ll fight mail-in voting for my right to four years more
Lefty protests I just ignore
I’ll destroy the Post Office to win
And with a douche like DeJoy in my thrall
Trashing resources to slow the mail to a crawl
Every vote’s a vote for TRUMP or no one at all!
I say {grunting like primate} uh uhngh! Aargh raargh aaaargh ook-ook!

The Reigning is the Sweetest part
Every tweet sucks in one more chump
I betray my Oath to stab them in the heart
The Reigning is the Sweetest part!

Hell yeah, I crushed Sleepy Joe in a savage debate
Against Trump he wasn’t too great
Weak in the polls I went full-on whack
I ranted, interrupted and scolded Joe
Really pissed on tradition, rocked Chris Wallace with woe
Gonna Reign forever thanks to that fucking shitshow!
I shay {face contorts, body spasms}…I shay…I shay thall nihnwhunwhun ihmm haffna shtrook! Aargh!

The Reigning is the Yugest part
Every rant wins me one more vote
I betray my Oath to stab them in the heart
The Reigning is the Sweetest part!

Don’t let this year go too far Left {despairing}
I’m the Country’s Future, I’m its Greatest Ruler {sniffles}
The Libs want to beat me Junior, don’t let them vote me out
The Libs want to beat me Junior, don’t let them vote me out {sniffles}
Don’t let them vote me out {sobs}
