America’s chattering classes
Always looking for guests who say yasses
Unless it’s for Joe
Then it’s always a “no”
Agreement for them is what passes

America’s chattering classes
Breathe out such incendiary gasses.
Fear-filled and noxious,
They look to the Fox-ious
To keep folks’ heads up their own asses

America’s chattering classes
Keep viewers’ heads up their own asses.
Won’t say on their show
What good folks need to know
They’re the fentanyl of the new masses
