Verse 1 Holy Mayorkas, you have been reproved I have seen the illegals you are letting through Distant hordes from down the line Brand of people who ain’t my kind Holy Mayorkas, you should be removed Verse 2 Holy Biden, you are not believed Now there’s a coming election and you’ll have to leave Won’t you please excuse my frankness But I’ve had it with your senility Holy Biden, we have been deceived Bridge Slow Joe abandoned the border for nearly four years His office and power he abused I know you don’t care but you oughta But it’s clear to all you seem a little confused Holy Biden, we have been deceived Verse 3 Holy migrants, let us not increase Let us strive to find a way to not just catch and release There’s a man over there, what’s his name? I don’t care Fix the border, make the madness cease, oh Fix the border, make the madness cease, oh Fix the border, and let us, let us live in peace Written: May 2024 My version of Elton John's classic song. ~~~~ Below is the actual Border Song lyrics... Verse 1 Holy Moses, I have been removed I have seen the spectre, he has been here too Distant cousin from down the line Brand of people who ain't my kind Holy Moses, I have been removed Verse 2 Holy Moses, I have been deceived Now the wind has changed direction, and I'll have to leave Won't you please excuse my frankness But it's not my cup of tea Holy Moses, I have been deceived Bridge I'm going back to the border where my affairs My affairs ain't abused I can't take any more bad water Been poisoned from my head down to my shoes, oh Holy Moses, I have been deceived Verse 3 Holy Moses, let us live in peace Let us strive to find a way to make all hatred cease There's a man over there, what's his colour? I don't care He's my brother, let us live in peace, oh He's my brother, let us live in peace, oh He's my brother, let us, let us live in peace ~~~~

A great contender to sing to at the next Republican convention, Keith! Very clever…love the original song by Sir Elton John, as well! :)

It is a great song from the vault. I love Elton’s early stuff. Cheers DT.
