Parody lyrics by Jolie La Chance and Hopalong Ginsberg

Parody of "China Grove" by Tom Johnston

lyrics

When the sun comes up on a sleepy old man
The nation starts to wail and moan
And his handlers are rising for another day
Around the old white home

They know the old man's deranged
But that's the name of the game

Well, you're talkin' bout China Joe (China Joe!)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh China Joe

Well, Hunter and the Big Guy
Lord they been bought off
By that tyrant Xi Jinping
When the cokehead gets a billion
The PRC ain’t chillin’
They dance for joy in Beijing

He ain’t gonna stand in their way
As long as they continue to pay

Well, you're talkin' bout China Joe (China Joe!)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh China Joe

But every day there's a scandal comin'
The ways of a felonious crew
The kids are back in cages
Hamas’s getting funded
You can smell corruption in the air

And though the gas prices go up and up
Biden don't seem to care
He just keeps feeding the beast

Well, you're talkin' bout China Joe (China Joe!)
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh China Joe
