Time To Click From Scarborough Unfair


Simon and Garfunkel once sang “Are you going to Scarborough Fair?”
Parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
In the political climate “Are you avoiding the Scarborough anchor chair?”
Fake news, rage, rhetoric and biased slime
For once he was a true Red
Now fake news, rage, rhetoric and biased slime
Have him rail against Trump spreading fear and dread
Are you fleeing from the Scarborough anchor chair?
Bias and hatred beyond compare
Fake news, rage, rhetoric and biased slime
Have him talk to the families of victims in the planes or on the ground running out of time
Close your ears to the victims’ screams or the reading of the names of the dead
Listen to his rail of Trump’s more damage to America instead?
Fake news, rage, rhetoric and biased slime
Then listen to the cadence of the memorial chimes
Morning Joe’s Trump Derangement Syndrome appears terminal off the charts
From a former journalist from whom objectivity has made a quick depart
Trying to spread fear and despair
Joined by the other Bobbsey twin of bias to fill the air
Morning Joe and Mika
About as welcome in your home as a swarm of Zikas
False news, rage, rhetoric and biased slime
On Morning Joe don’t waste your time!
