Buy the Farm

I DON’T need damned “economists”, EACH ONE’s to ME a jerk
ONLY I ALONE “understand” how ALL TARIFFS!!! work
Who Cares if some dirt farmers get a bit hurt on the way???
Increased TARIFFS!!! ALONE have made BILLIONS of CHINESE pay!!!
The so-called “Climate Change” HOAX they cooked up was bad enough
MY TARIFFS!!! WILL soon punish them for ALL their naughty stuff.

They flooded MY Great “markets” with “goods” growing ever cheaper
MY TARIFFS!!! have forced them to PAY ME MONEY piles deeper
BILLIONS of DOLLARS are now flooding into the U.S.
Which I DEMAND THEY pay for making “free trade” such a mess
“Economists” tell ME the MONEY does NOT come from them!!!
I say IT DOES, and WILL NOT ask “economists” again.

It’s MONEY, OK??? And I made it flow to US from THEM
It takes a Genius to make that happen with a pen
Because MY dirt farmers LOVE ME!!! in EACH and EVERY way
They’d rather lose their farms than DISAGREE with what I say
So when I say MY TARIFFS!!! WORK they DO NOT “feel” ALARM
They know the MONEY China’s sending HELPED them buy the farm.
