[Verse 1]
Standing at the podium
Spouting out about
Ad nauseam
And raising doubt

[Chorus]
Gawking bird
(Squawking the absurd)
Squawking bird
(No truth in word)
Word.

[Verse 2]
Trying to address
Failing to impress
Rhetoric and lies
Need to die
(Realize!)
Try!

[Chorus]
Gawking bird
(Squawking the absurd)
Squawking bird
(No truth in word)
Word.

[Bridge]
Spouting out
(Casting doubt)
Can’t figure out
(A word that you say)
Any way
(Anyway)
Not another day
(No, no way)

[Chorus]
Gawking bird
(Squawking the absurd)
Squawking bird
(No truth in word)
Word.

[Outro]
Absurd squawking bird
(No truth in word)
Word.

ABOUT THE SONG

  • Verse 1 (“standing at the podium, spouting out about ad nauseam, and raising doubt”) sets the scene: Trump at his podium, speaking at length — often repeating himself, overwhelming audiences with endless talking points, and most importantly, sowing confusion and distrust.

  • Chorus (“gawking bird / squawking the absurd / no truth in word”) paints Trump as a loud, attention-grabbing figure — much like a noisy bird — whose statements are full of absurdities and falsehoods. The repetition of “Word” at the end emphasizes the hollowness of his speech, as if even the act of “speaking” has lost its meaning.

  • Verse 2 (“trying to address, failing to impress, rhetoric and lies need to die”) points out that while Trump may have tried to tackle serious issues, his reliance on bombast, misinformation, and self-promotion led to failure to inspire trust or confidence. There’s a plea for honesty and clarity (“Realize! Try!”), suggesting frustration with his unwillingness or inability to do better.

  • Bridge (“spouting out, casting doubt, can’t figure out a word that you say”) highlights how his speech often seemed incoherent or contradictory — to the point where listeners struggled to follow or believe anything being said. The repeated feeling of “not another day” expresses weariness and desperation from the public.

  • Chorus and Outro (“absurd squawking bird / no truth in word”) drive home the image of Trump’s press conferences as a noisy spectacle of nonsense and lies, offering no real leadership or communication, only empty, chaotic sound.
