Amazing Grip (How Cringe the Squeeze)

Amazing grip at Elysee
L’Orange comes to squeeze
His tiny hands all spray-tan stained
While Europe mocks with ease
The world has gone a little mad
He rambles unrefined
While Macron thinks of better days
When presidents had minds

Through special vans and drone patrol
To guard his cotton fluff
A walking NDA in slacks
Still playing way too rough
The cathedral rose from actual flames
Unlike his bankrupt brand
A self proclaimed stable genius
With burger grease stained hands

Amazing grip how Europe bows
To Lord of Golden Throne
While Secret Service blocks the view
Of meltdowns fully grown
But Macron knows this playground game
Of handling Cheeto King
A master class in managing
The tangerine who would be king
