LYRICS for MAKE AMERICA GROW AFRAID
Don Caron
I went to buy some tacos. They’re priced like a car.
Need supplies from China? Dollar won’t go far.
Canada’s syrup will cost you a limb.
Will that make America great again?
Trashing the economy with tariffs on trade
Wallet’s getting lighter every time you get paid
America’s stupidity on parade
MAGA? Make America Grow Afraid!
The farmers are sweating their crops in the sun
Tariffs all about ’til there’s nowhere to run
Steel from the north bound up in red tape
Means my car’s half-built. There’s no way to escape
Avocado pits used as bargaining chips
Tough-guy policies, just wait’ll it hits
Promised a boom, getting gloom instead
We’ll be standing in line for some soup and bread
Trashing the economy with tariffs on trade
Wallet’s getting lighter every time you get paid
America’s stupidity on parade
MAGA? Make America Grow Afraid!
USA incompetence ripples worldwide
China responds behind their walls of pride
Mexico shrugged as they passed the salt
Canada’s aggressive, grinding things to a halt
Trashing the economy with tariffs on trade
Wallet’s getting lighter every time you get paid
America’s stupidity on parade
MAGA? Make America Grow Afraid!
