Nikki's A Republican Now

(album: My American Dream - 2018)

She had a "Reagan Sucks" sticker on the window of her car
Back seat like a hotel, front seat like a bar
Skipped school every Friday smoking Kools cigarettes
Blasted U2 and the Pixies on an old Maxell cassette
Black nails, shaved head, dark Martin, little rock-n-roll queen

Got pregnant in the eleventh grade when she was seventeen
By my friend Terrell, the captain of the basketball team
Her daddy didn't like it so he made it disappear
She didn't have a baby, never had a senior year
Haven't seen her since she left and I thought about her just the other day
My friends told me:

Nikki's a Republican now
Nikki's a Republican now
Nikki's a Republican now
Nikki's a Republican now

I got a online and found her and I just could not believe
But there's Nikki with a Bible and a AR-15
She says that all lives matter and the media's a scam
The only gun control that she supports is using both hands
She stands for the anthem, says marriage is a woman and a man
Oh my good God!

Nikki's a Republican now
Nikki's a Republican now
Nikki's a Republican now
Nikki's a Republican now

She kicked her son out of the house 'cause she found out he was gay
He and his husband got their second Hatian baby on the way
Her daughter is a lawyer for the ACLU
Her boyfriend is a folk singer socialistic Jew
They don't come home to see her anymore because the think that she's insane

(Nikki's a Republican now)
Nikki's a Republican now
Nikki's a Republican now
Nikki's a Republican now
(Nikki's a Republican now)
(Nikki's a Republican now)
(Nikki's a Republican now)
Nikki's a Republican now
