THEY GOOFED AGAIN
[Verse 1]
They came in with a smoking gun
They said, “This time we’ve got the one!”
They waved the papers, made a scene
Then somehow broke the whole machine
They called the lawyers, called the press
They promised everyone success
But somewhere between “We’ve got him!”
And “Wait a minute…” — the case is rotten
[Pre-Chorus]
They had a plan
They had a case
They had that confident look on their face
Then somebody pulled the wrong string
And suddenly it’s a different thing
[Chorus]
They goofed again, they goofed again
Here we go around the bend
Big bad words and a big bad show
Then — oops! — where did the evidence go?
They goofed again, they goofed again
Somebody tell them how this ends
They swing for the fences, then strike out again
They goofed again — they goofed again!
[Verse 2]
They called somebody a dirtbag loud
They looked so tough in front of the crowd
But when the facts came marching in
That little victory turned into a spin
They said, “We’ll make that prosecutor pay!”
Then watched the whole thing slip away
A master plan, a brilliant scheme
That crumbled right into a meme
[Pre-Chorus]
They had a plan
They had a case
They had that confident look on their face
Then somebody pulled the wrong string
And suddenly it’s a different thing
[Chorus]
They goofed again, they goofed again
Here we go around the bend
Big bad words and a big bad show
Then — oops! — where did the evidence go?
They goofed again, they goofed again
Somebody tell them how this ends
They swing for the fences, then strike out again
They goofed again — they goofed again!
[Bridge]
Oopsie, daisy, what went wrong?
They've been pounding that drum too long
One more hearing, one more try
One more headline, one more “Why?”
[Final Chorus]
They goofed again, they goofed again
Here we go around the bend
Big bad words and a big bad show
Then — oops! — where did the evidence go?
They goofed again, they goofed again
Somebody tell them how this ends
They swing for the fences, then strike out again
They goofed again — they goofed again!
[Outro]
They goofed again!
Yeah, they goofed again!
Raise the curtain, cue the band —
They goofed it across the land!

Put a smile on my face...
I like this a lot better than the other one you posted (It's All An Illusion)
Keep on writing.

Yeah, it has a lot more bite than "Illusion". Thanks for the encouragement.

For those of you who don't know what this song is about, it's about US politics. This one was inspired by Republican Senator Eric Schmitt’s recent attempt to trip up former Trump prosecutor Jack Smith during a Senate hearing. Trump wants Smith prosecuted, but so far, efforts to find something that sticks against him haven't gone very far.
Schmitt was trying to suggest that Smith had secretly been in Atlanta on February 3, 2024 — apparently to imply a connection with Fulton County DA Fani Willis. His supposed evidence centered around an Atlanta Hawks game against the Golden State Warriors.
There was just one problem. Smith said he hadn’t been at that game. He had been at a University of Iowa women’s basketball game in Maryland, watching Caitlin Clark.
Atlanta Hawks.
Iowa Hawkeyes.
Two different teams. Two different cities. About 650 miles apart.
Schmitt had accused Smith of perjury and even called him a “total dirtbag.” Then Senator Amy Klobuchar pointed out the rather important detail: maybe you should get your facts straight before calling someone a dirtbag.
And just like that, the big “gotcha” moment went poof. It was pretty embarrassing for Schmitt.
That little episode inspired this tongue-in-cheek song about big accusations, big confidence, and spectacularly small details.
They goofed again!

Sounds like a IQ test on how long it takes school buses to get to get to Maryland to Atlanta . Who knows . You ruin your day at 7am watching that bullshit. Yup you love politics .

We’re all built from the same dust and dreams,
Different roads, but the same means.

I actually hate politics but when you start paying 11$ for a gallon of gas you just can't ignore politics anymore.

You have been consumed by Trump for years as gas went up and down, and you have brought it here again and again. A more logical assumption is that you are a highly agitated little man who's emotions engulf him. I suspect this was another baited trap. See what you can get Brian to do. Good luck with it.

Hey Sunset, I'd like to remind you that this song has nothing to do with Trump. They goofed. I'm sure you agree they did. Or are you accusing me of spreading some kind of fake news? As for gas prices... they've never reached 11$ here. We all know who is responsible. Come on Sunset, don't say it's Biden's fault. And one more thing, Sunset: you say I’m “consumed by Trump,” yet my song is about Schmitt confusing the Atlanta Hawks with the Iowa Hawkeyes — and somehow you managed to bring Trump, gas prices, and my emotional state into the comments. I think you may have just demonstrated my point for me. 😂

Yeah yeah yeah Rob.
Your post is about Trump and gas prices. i.e. his decisions and their consequences. Give up the your girlish attempts at head fakes. They are too obvious to obscure.
The paradox is that I agree...somewhat. Trump has the country mired in another expensive war in the middle east. He gambled and , to date, is losing the bet.
Be that as it may, Im not going to start dumping political angst on a songwriting site...because I am not an ate up little twat.
Of course, im not suggesting that anyone else is.
