I can not help it
I can only see
A great orange pumpkin
when he speaks on tv

His head is topped
with a rug dyed pumpkin orange
His skin it’s tinted to match
as if he’s had the scourge

Just like the one carved for treats
his pumpkin head you see
it’s very empty and quite void
A pumpkin king is he

The same as that big holiday fruit
his mouth is wide
his eyes are blank
there’s nothing left inside

He speaks with mindless thought
of course to what he’s going to say
words of nonsense spill on out
Not a single thought does he convey

Watch out for scary pumpkin heads
especially when they gain in power
When Halloween’s gone and he’s installed
our country he will devour!
