Jumbo |
Well, here comes Jumbo with a phone in his hand |
Bet it’s been a while since you seen a real man |
Grown up strong on the fat of the land of the free |
Sure, I guess he got off to a hell of a start |
With his grandpa’s money and his daddy’s heart |
But you oughta know privileged is a pretty hard thing to be |
You know? |
Whoa! |
Here comes Jumbo with a knife and a tan |
And an elephant’s tail for his Instagram |
Grown up brave on the fat of the land of the free |
See the twinkle in his eye like a torch in the dark |
On a court-approved stroll through the city park |
Whistling which of you purebreds gonna bark at my theme song goes a little |
something like: |
Here comes Jumbo |
American as gumbo |
Skin white as new corn liquor hair black as molasses rum, though |
He ain’t dumb, no |
You elitist bums, go |
Get yourselves off of Capitol Hill |
‘Cause we’ve just about had our fill |
Of y’all playing Columbo |
When anyone can tell |
That good old Jumbo |
Was only to trying to help |
Only trying to help |
(Oh, help us out with one now Jumbo) |
Here comes Jumbo |
American as gumbo |
Washed in the blood of the little man singing fee fi fo fum, bro |
‘Til his kingdom comes so |
You elitist bums can go |
Fuck yourselves off of Capitol Hill |
‘Cause we’ve just about had our fill |
Of wondering what is and isn’t rigged |
When there’s all these unadopted kids |
Ready to swim across the Bering Sea |
To feast on the fat of the land of the free |
They’re twiddling their thumbs though |
While y’all play Columbo |
With poor old Jumbo |
Shh! |
