(May be sung to “This is Halloween”, from THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CRISTMAS)
Right-wing fascists frothing with hate
Vowing to "make America great"
It's already far too late
If you're in the Sunshine State
This is Florida, This is Florida
Gators crawling in every ditch!
This is Florida, shamble down the corridor
Stalinist purges going off without a hitch
Learning's banned! Everyone yell "DUH"
In the State of Florida!
I am the man who is huffing bath salts
Shaking with rage and committing assaults
I am the government, riddled with crooks
Spying on trans kids, banning all your books
This is Florida, This is Florida
Florida, Florida, Florida, Florida
In this State we call home
We all goose-step to the Trumpkin song
In this town, don't you feel the urge?
Everybody's waiting for the next big purge!
Round that corner, man
Leaping from a trash can
Someone's hunting for the Jews, and now you'll scream!
This is Florida, Horrider and horrider
Are you scared? Well, you should be!
Transphobes, homophobes
Shooting at your earlobes
Shooting the schools in the broad daylight
Hear the shot! Hear the body thud!
Someone's just been Florida'd!
I am the tweaker with scabs on his veins
I am the old man shaking my canes
I am the Incel preying on women
I am the hurricane—hope you like swimmin'!
I am the shooter in the Pulse nightclub
I'm gonna have Black history scrubbed!
This is Florida, this is Florida
Florida, Florida, Florida, Florida
Florida, Florida!
We're enforcing racial purity!
We will steal your Social Security!
Coach's menstrual monitor:
That's a thing in Florida!
In this State, don't you love it here?
Everybody's waiting for the Holocaust
Our own Iago, out of Mar-a-Lago
He screams like a banshee
When the Governor is here!
This is Florida, everybody scream!
Won't you please make way for a very special guy
Meatball Ron is king of the Sunshine State
Everybody Heil to the Fascist King, NOW!
This is Florida, this is Florida
Florida, Florida, Florida, Florida
In this State we call Hell
Everyone dance to the Trumpkin knell:
Wahh-wahh-wahh-wahh
Wah-Wahh-wahh-wahh-wahh
Wahh-wahh-wahh-wahh
Wah-Wahh-wahh-wahh-wahh Wahh-wahh-wahh-wahh
