Barbra
Streisand, who I recently learned has had at least one #1 album in each decade
since the 1960s (and whose Broadway debut at age 19 I saw – I CAN GET IT FOR
YOU WHOLESALE - which also starred her then to be husband Elliot Gould), hit
the nail on the head at a fund-raiser for Hillary with a spot on parody of the
Stephen Sondheim classic “Send in the Clowns” about reality tv clown, and
unfortunately the Republican Presidential candidate, Dangerous Donald Trump,
who turned the 2016 President election into a 3-ring circus.
Here
are Barbra’s on the money lyrics -
IS
HE THAT RICH?
MAYBE
HE'S POOR?
'TIL
HE REVEALS HIS RETURNS
WHO
CAN BE SURE
WHO
NEEDS THIS CLOWN?
SOMETHING'S
AMISS
I
DON'T APPROVE
IF
HE WERE RUNNING THE FREE WORLD,
WHERE
WOULD WE MOVE?
NAME
ME A TOWN?
JUST
WHO IS THIS CLOWN?
AND
WHEN WE THOUGHT WE'D HEARD IT ALL
HUFFING
AND PUFFING ABOUT HIS BIG FANTASY WALL
MAKING
HIS ENTRANCE ON STAGE...
HE
JUST SHOOTS FROM THE HIP
HE'S
FULL OF BULL
HE'S
LOST HIS GRIP!
AND
IF BY CHANCE
HE
GETS TO HEAV'N
EVEN
UP THERE HE'LL DECLARE...
CHAPTER
ELEV'N!
WHO'D
HIRE THIS CLOWN?
THIS
SAD VULGAR CLOWN...
YOU'RE FIRED" YOU CLOWN!
HILLARY'S
KIND...
SMART
THAT IS CLEAR
WHILE
SHE IS GIVING US HOPE...TRUMP IS SELLING US FEAR
LOOK
HOW HE CHANGES HIS VIEWS EVERY TIME THAT HE SPEAKS
IT'S
LIE AFTER LIE
CAN'T
TAKE EIGHT MORE WEEKS!
THIS
IS NO FARCE
MAYBE
HE'S BROKE?
IS THIS "THE ART OF HIS DEAL"
OR
SOME AWFUL JOKE?
YOU'VE GOT TO ADMIT...
THIS SILLY HALF-WIT...
IS SO FULL OF SHIT!
