Threat Options

WAKE UP, Republicans!!! You’re ALL being played like a fiddle
Give ME MY Money for MY WALL, do NOT sit in the middle
Help ME block MY borders or YOU’LL lose the whole country!
If YOU leave borders open YOU’LL create a Killing Spree!!
Give ME the 60 votes I need to fund MY WALL today
Or MY shutdown before November will sweep YOU away.

MY threat of shutdown scares the hell out of you GOP
You have no idea what I’ll do, but ALL KNOW, BELIEVE ME,
That I WILL get MY GREAT WALL built, funding WILL come MY way,
If shutdown is what it takes then shutdown’s with ME OK
Right now I promise I will NOT make “Government” shutdown
Next week who knows? I may NOT NOT shutdown this whole damn town.

Each threat I threaten does NOT threaten just one thing one way
ALL threats I make leave room to change MY mind 10 times, OK?
I keep ALL MY threat options open until the last minute
And don’t know what I’ll do MYSELF until I first begin it
And if I do what I have done and then decide to change
I deny I did what I did and MY dids rearrange.

So live in fear, Republicans, your fate’s in MY BIG hands
To shutdown or to NOT shutdown? I don’t yet know MY plans
Whatever I do will be the RIGHT thing to do, OK?
Unless I decide that it’s NOT and “choose” some other way
The bottom line is I MUST WIN no matter what I “choose”
GIVE ME MY MONEY or come November you jerks WILL LOSE.
