This is a roast of a small-fingered man
Who fancies that he’s Mister Big
He thinks he casts pearls before the swine
But he is the one who’s a pig
He operates with a simpleton’s mind
And an ego as fragile as a twig
Bombast and boast are the tools of his trade
When he fails, claims the system is rigged
He never learned the first lesson in life
When down in a hole, cease to dig
Rats wouldn’t nest in the hair on his head
‘Twould be better to wear powdered wig
He tweets like a bird in a gilded cage
This canary in coal mine … this prig
He’s risen to rank far exceeding his worth
But deeds make the man, not the gig
