The Coming Republican Depression
They light the match, they watch it fall, And leave the rest of us with nothing at all.
[Verse 1]
I see the fuse is burning down,
On a keg marked “U.S. Economy.”
They smile as they pass it ‘round,
Billionaires dancing in the treasury.
The air smells like 1929,
Ghosts of breadlines whisper in the wind.
We’ve been here too many times,
And I know how this story ends.
[Chorus]
Here comes the coming Republican Depression,
Where the rich get rich on our recession.
They light the match, they watch it fall,
And leave the rest of us with nothing at all.
History’s warning, but they won’t learn the lesson—
Brace for the coming Republican Depression.
[Verse 2]
They hold our country hostage for greed,
Cutting deals in backrooms with blood on the keys.
Kill the unions, kill the seed,
Trade our children’s future for a yacht on the seas.
Wall Street gamblers spin their wheels,
While farmers lose their land and homes.
Main Street breaks beneath the heels
Of a party that turns the world to stone.
[Chorus]
Here comes the coming Republican Depression,
Where the rich get rich on our recession.
They light the match, they watch it fall,
And leave the rest of us with nothing at all.
History’s warning, but they won’t learn the lesson—
Brace for the coming Republican Depression.
[Bridge] (soft, then rising)
We remember the breadlines, the fear in our fathers’ eyes,
The homes boarded up, the farms swallowed by the sky.
They call it freedom, but it’s chains in disguise,
And if we don’t rise now, everything dies.
[Verse 3] (intense, final build)
From the swamps of Wall Street to the drought-cracked plains,
The storm is building, you can taste the rain.
The fuse is hissing, the powder’s dry,
And the billionaires cheer as the sparks fly high.
But we can break their grip tonight,
If we stand together, we can still fight.
[Final Chorus / Outro]
Here comes the coming Republican Depression,
But this time we won’t be their possession.
We’ll hold the line, we’ll take it back,
Before the whole world fades to black.
History’s warning, and we will learn the lesson—
We’ll stop the coming Republican Depression.
