The American Taliban

If you think America

Is going in the wrong direction,

And if you want our candidates

To win in the next election,

You might want to help us all

Rout out the bogeyman.

Come and be a member of

The American Taliban.

 

If you think our country is

Getting too diverse,

If you think that immigrants

Are making matters worse,

And if you fear a great influx

Of people black or tan,

Then you'll fit in quite well with us--

The American Taliban.

 

We do go by other names,

And we're spread far and wide.

You'll find White supremacists

Standing by our side.

Among us you will even find

Members of the Klan.

Whatever the case, we’re proud to be

The American Taliban.

 

We don't need no evidence;

We just all yell "Steal!"--

At least to make it look as though

Election fraud is real.

To spread around misinformation,

We do what we can

'Cause we are die-hard members of

The American Taliban.

 

Religious freedom? Oh, yeah…that.

We won't make a fuss

Just as long as you maintain

Religious views like us.

Of women's reproductive rights

Our group is not a fan.

Women are subservient to

The American Taliban.

 

Racial inequality

And stuff like equal rights

Are balderdash to us, for they

Are damaging to Whites.

It's clear who's been superior

Since back when time began.

That's why we are members of

The American Taliban.

 

We can stifle democracy

Until it is no more,

For we will spread theocracy

From shore to distant shore.

Help suppress the vote. Come on

And join our caravan.

Our goal: to change the laws to suit

The American Taliban.

 

Watch: we will infiltrate all

Your cities and your towns.

Elected officials will be replaced,

And even school board clowns.

Justice and the rule of law

Are not part of our plan.

We'll make nonsupporters fear

The American Taliban.
