Some pre- and post-election songs, for crying. To the revolution.
A parody of/homage to Lin-Manuel Miranda's "History Has Its Eyes On You" from the work of genius Broadway musical Hamilton.
[ME, TO MY DAUGHTER]
I was older than you are now
When I first began to demand
That my life be treated equally
As that of any man
I mistakenly felt
Misplaced shame rise in me
But now I'll stay awake
Knowing Hillary has her eyes on me
Let me tell you what I wish I’d known
When I was young and dreamed of glory:
You must take control
You live, you die, your life's your story
I know that we can win
I know that greatness lies in you
But remember from here on in
Hillary has her eyes on you.

[CLINTON]
How does this guy
An arrogant
philandering, hairball
bastard irritant
Somehow get to
Run for office? The President!
A race I've been in since the beginning
Just to keep me from winning?
They can't let him in the room where it happens--
[CLINTON AND COMPANY]
The room where it happens
The room where it happens
[CLINTON]
I will not let him in--
[CLINTON AND COMPANY]
The room where it happens
[CLINTON]
Not at any time
Dear Donald Trump:
I am slow to anger
But I take a stand
As I reckon with the effects
Of your words on this land
I look back on this campaign
And in every place I checked
The only common thread has been your disrespect
Now you call me "crooked,"
"A total disgrace,”
If you’ve got something to say
We've got a time and place
Face to face
I have the honor to be An American Servant
H-R-C
[TRUMP]
Hey, Lady:
You don't even look presidential!
You don't know how to lead!
I will not hesitate with my opinion
I have always worn it on my sleeve
Even if I said something really stupid
You would need to cite a more specific grievance
There is nothing I enjoy more than having disagreements
[CLINTON]
Sweet Jesus
[TRUMP]
Hey, I have not been shy
I am just a guy in the public eye
Tryin’ to do my best for my own name
I only love to fight
And I won’t apologize, you've got that right
I have never even once been an Obedient Servant
D dot Trump
[CLINTON]
Careful how you proceed, spray tan
Intemperate indeed, small hands
Get a dictionary and delete your tweets
If you can even read, big man
[TRUMP]
Hill, you know I love an argument
I'll just repeat what I said, every bit of it
I stand only for myself
It’s what I do
I won't apologize, that much is true
[CLINTON]
Then stand, Donald
Hofstra. Fall.
Prepare. To Brawl.
[TRUMP]
But… football?
[CLINTON] I have the honor to be An American Servant
[TRUMP] I don't know what you mean by Obedient Servant

A parody of "Don't It Make My Brown Eyes Blue," written by Richard Leigh and beautifully recorded by Crystal Gayle.
Don't know when we've been so blue
Thanks, Donny boy, it's all down to you
You've raised a hullabaloo, and
Don't it make my red state blue
We'll be fine when you're gone
Ladies laughing all night long
You'll say it isn't true (hoo!), but
You've gone and made my red state blue
He says she has secrets, he says she tells lies
Somehow he even makes Dubya look wise
This stupid election keeps making me cry
Especially when he says he won't say goodbye
This guy makes Abe Lincoln look bad
Somewhere, Reagan's ghost is so sad
Republicans, we're through
Trump's gone and made my red state
Gone and made my red state
Gone and made my red state blue
Don't know when we've been so blue
Thanks, Donny boy, it's all down to you
You've raised a hullabaloo, and
Don't it make my red state blue
We'll be fine when you're gone
Ladies laughing all night long

He says she has secrets, he says she tells lies

Especially when he says he won't say goodbye

Gone and made my red state
Gone and made my red state blue
