Very good song put out by Donald Fagen (Steely Dan) and Todd Rundgren (Grand Funk Railroad, The Band, Hall & Oates).

Here's approximate lyrics:

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]He’s coming down the escalator
With a girl from east of here
He wants to make the country greater
[ REDACTED ]

’Cause the man in the tin foil hat
Is sitting on the throne tonight
It kinda feels like a coup d’etat
But its gonna be great, tremendous, amazing and all that

’Cause the man in the tin foil hat
Is tweeting like a teenage girl
He puts the Pluto in plutocrat
But it’s gonna be huge, huge, huge new world

He hasn’t got the time for losers
’less they do as he commands
He’s writing checks to his accusers
With those tiny little hands

Because the man in the tin foil hat
Is sittin’ on the throne tonight
It kinda feels like a coup d’etat
But it’s gonna be huge, huge, huge new world

’Cause the man in the tin foil hat
Is gonna bring us one tonight
And fill it up with alternative facts
And its gonna be great, tremendous, amazing and all that

’Cause the man in the tin foil hat
Is tweeting like a teenage girl
He puts the Pluto in plutocrat
‘Cause it’s gonna be huge, huge, huge new world

Because the man in the tin foil hat
Is sittin’ on the throne tonight
It kinda feels like a coup d’etat
And its gonna be great, tremendous, amazing and all that[/FONT][/FONT]

No wonder he works for the ACLU ... couldn't get a real job anywhere else and just sits around all day posting to VN. Moi you ask! I'm retired, got an excuse.

The irony is the lyrics represent a tin foil hat view of Trump. Fagan and Rundgren are the wearers.

I don't think that Todd Rundgren ever did anything with GFR other than produce some songs or an album. I never heard of him playing in the band. Of course, I could be wrong.

The lyrics have been corrected:

[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]THE MAN IN THE TIN FOIL HAT

He’s coming down the escalator
With a girl from east of here
He wants to make the country greater
We got nothing left to fear

Because the man in the tin foil hat
Is sitting on the throne tonight
It kinda feels like a coup d’etat
But its gonna be great, tremendous, amazing and all that

With those tiny little hands

Because the man in the tin foil hat
Is sittin’ on the throne tonight
It kinda feels like a coup d’etat
But it’s gonna be huge, huge, huge new world

’Cause the man in the tin foil hat
Is gonna drain the swamp tonight
And fill it up with alternative facts
And its gonna be great, tremendous, amazing and all that

’Cause the man in the tin foil hat
Is tweeting like a teenage girl
He puts the Pluto in plutocrat
‘Cause it’s gonna be huge, huge, huge new world

Because the man in the tin foil hat

It kinda feels like a coup d’etat
And its gonna be great, tremendous, amazing and all that
