I turned on my TV
To watch Joe Biden
Debate a lyin’ fascist
For the highest of all stakes
I wanted to cheer for him
As he shut the con-man’s scam down
But the way he looked and sounded
Made my heart break
All Biden had to do
Was show some spunk and vigor
Speak sincerely
And prove that he’s all there
His truths remained unspoken
As the liar’s bluster prospered
He just looked old and tired
Without any flair
Joe needs to know when to hold ‘em
Know when to fold ‘em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run
You can’t win an election
With mumbles and long lapses
We need a new top of the ticket
This election must be won
We must win this election
If we care about the climate
Taxing the rich
Or a woman’s right to choose
Trump is a menace
To all that’s good and decent
If you’re humane and caring,
Trump has got to lose
So please Mr. Biden
For the good of this country
Step down with dignity
Let your delegates go free
Retire with honor
Let us choose another
Who can win this election
And end Trump’s fascist spree
You need to know when to hold ‘em
Know when to fold ‘em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run
You can’t win an election
With mumbles and long lapses
We need a new top of the ticket
This election must be won
