Our Father of Failure<\/strong>

\n\u201cAs that through long continuance of his course,\u00a0
\nMe seemes the world is runne quite out of square,\u00a0

\nOur Father of Failure who lives in what you call a \u2018dump\u2019
\nSwallow your lying game legacy of blame and shame\u00a0
\nThy Blingdom\u2019s numb, thy will be perfunctorily done
\nBy all Republican Senators under the Washington sun
\nWith the exception of one grandpa Senator from Utah
\nForgive your Cabinet this day for not telling the truth
\nThey don\u2019t want to be fired or moved away from work
\nBy the ignorant sycophants you have surrounding you
\nMay you be led away from your temptation to insult
\nDegrade others leader\u2019s merits and be very vindictive
\nAs has been your daily elective and DELIVER US
\nAfter the election from your cruel immigration policy
\nSeparating innocent infants and children from parents
\nFor thine is now a diminished kingdom coming down
\nYou disgrace it every passing hour, its office and glory.
