(I was impelled to write this parody of "Cotten-Eyed Joe" when I saw a meme of ByeDone with the title "Rules Based Murder.")

Genocide Joe

.
If it hadn't been for Genocide Joe,
We'd have had peace long time ago.
Why are you lying?
What do you know?
Where has your mind gone, Genocide Joe?
.
He came to DC all smarmy and slick,
To shill for the banksters to rise up real quick.
His lies were his tools,
His smile was his gun,
And sniffing the young girls was his form of fun.
.
If it hadn't been for Genocide Joe,
We'd have had peace long time ago.
Why are you lying?
What do you know?
Where has your mind gone, Genocide Joe?
.
He brought deception wherever he went.
It sank his first campaigning for president.
But as he continued his stature to grow,
There was never a war to which he would say no.
.
If it hadn't been for Genocide Joe,
We'd have had peace long time ago.
Why are you lying?
What do you know?
Where has your mind gone, Genocide Joe?

As a bonus, here’s my 2020 campaign parody about Gropey Joe:
Remember Song

When I was Vice-President groping the girls,
the cameras recorded it all.
For grasping their breasts, or sniffing their curls,
or plying their ears with sexist pearls,
the videos claimed I was king of the churls.
But the DNC won't let me fall;
they'll prop me up into the fall.
.
Oh, it's a long, long time from May to November,
but it doesn't matter since I can't remember.
Who's Tara Reade? Should I know that name?
Or allegations that I'm to blame?
.
And the gaffes and the lies to which I cling.
Mandela, marching in Selma.
And these fictitious tales I always bring.
We hold these truths... you know... the thing.
Am I running for senate, or to be king?
My legs are hairy, Cornpop was scary!
And these demented tropes, I'll always sing.
We hold these truths... you know... the thing!
