Lyrics
[Verse]
Oh the winds do howl and the markets groan
We'll slap on tariffs from dock to throne
The goods may sink as the tide does rise
But my spirits soar like seagulls in the skies
[Chorus]
Raise the tariff ho let the flags all fly
The rich get richer as the poor scrape by
The ship may falter and the crew may sigh
But I’m a great captain with a gleaming eye
[Verse 2]
The economy’s waves may toss and churn
Imports denied let the factories burn
Who needs trade in this stormy spree
When I’ve got riches filling my treasury
[Chorus]
Raise the tariff ho let the flags all fly
The strong survive with their golden ties
If the ship goes down let the weak all cry
For I’ll be steering wealth to paradise high
[Bridge]
Oh they’ll chant and cheer this tariff decree
As jobs drift off like debris at sea
But look at me with a president’s grin
For I’ll proclaim this a mighty win
[Chorus]
Raise the tariff ho let the sails stay tight
My treasure’s safe in the golden light
The sinker’s sorrow won’t dim my might
For I’m the captain steering wrong or right

Prompt
A sea shanty parody about how great tariffs are, whether or not they work. The economy may sink, but my spirits are high. The strong will survive, and by strong, I mean rich. I'm a great president.
