Mr Tangerine Man

CHO – Hey Mr Tangerine Man you positively Glow
On a Mar a Lago sunbed for too long?
Hey Mr Tangerine man you put on such a show
Through your jingle jangle jungle I’m not following you

There’s no-one that we know of more arrogant than you
Such a bad loser too
We knew the cases stacked against you would all fail
You’re back inside the White House when you ought to be in jail
You couldn’t even get bail
Ivanka she’s turned tail.
Next to you she looks so pale
Outside the USA you’ll find us praying
CHO
You’re on the show The Apprentice and you’re firing anyone
Your ego shining in the sun
Is that what has boosted your complexion?
Another thing amazes me is your swirling Golden hair
It makes us all want to stare
But you just don’t seem to care
No one tells you no-one dares
Is there anything about you that is real?
CHO
Like the bad guy in the black hat on the cowboy movie screen
Are you as scary as you seem
It’s a nightmare not a dream
You’re like a cat that’s got the cream
It’s your swagger that makes us turn away
You won’t lose that 6 gun shoot out cos your early on the draw
He tumbles to the floor
Your fans all shout for ‘More’
Your heads too big for the door
Make up the rules so you can go on scheming
CHO
