The Senate’s tax bill cleared committee heading for the Senate floor
And as this happened protestors were loudly shouting “kill the bill!”
And demonstrations by the hundreds at the offices of senators
Throughout the nation citizens who really want this tax bill killed
One trillion and a half it will increase our budget deficits
To lavash billions on the wealthy and what corporations pay
For much of middle class this bill removes important benefits
It raises taxes and it kills the mandate of the ACA
McConnell wants to jam it through; no hearings, neither floor debates
Must get it passed before the public learns how really bad it is
No Democrats permitted in its drafting to participate
It’s Pay-back to their donors who might otherwise support not give
So once again it’s time to let the Senate hear our angry voice
They plan to vote on Friday, if McConnell gets to have his way
By me, this bill is terrible. It’s not at all my bill of choice
And if it passes, all of us will likely live to rue the day
