Story behind the song
Ever notice how every time you turn on the news, it's tariffs this, tariffs that - and then it just... changes the next day? Its been a wild ride watching global markets swing on a single tweet.
I recently heard someone use the term TACO: Trump Always Chickens Out. I laughed. Then I got inspired. So I wrote a song called The Great Taco King. It's an anthemic, satirical pop-rock track about bluff, bluster, and the chaos that follows. Think stadium chants, big choruses, and a healthy dose of wit. Hope it makes you think and maybe even laugh.
Lyrics
THE GREAT TACO KING
Anthemic Pop / Satirical Rock
[Chant-style buildup with crowd energy]
Whoa-oh-oh!
Whoa-oh-oh-ohhh!
Whoa-oh-oh!
Whoa-oh-oh! Whoaaa!
[Verse 1]
He rolls in on a golden plate
With fire tweets and drama bait
Walls and deals, bold and loud
Tariff threats to stir the crowd
Monday: steel gets double taxed
Tuesday: nope, he's walkin it back
By Wednesday noon, it's "never mind"
Stocks go down, then realign
[Pre-Chorus]
He talks like some tough dealin king
But all we get is posturing
A paper tiger in a crown
He puffs it up, then backs it down
[Chorus]
Whoa-oh-oh! The Great Taco King!
Shouts real loud, but won't do a thing
Whoa-oh-oh! Here he goes again
Then chickens out before they kick in
Whoa-oh-oh! Headlines spin and swing
Tariff threats? A daily fling
While the world just laughs and grins
Long live! The Great Taco King!
[Verse 2]
He's got a flair for daily rage
Then folds quicker than a front-page wage
One day, nation X gets cursed
Next day, Y gets hit worse
We track it all in real-time dread
Charts and graphs inside our heads
His base? Still cheering in the stands
While farmers lose their market plans
[Pre-Chorus]
The cycles set: bluff, stall, repeat
A Twitter quake on Wall Street
He crows so loud, but won't commit
Congress shrugs, and rolls with it
[Chorus]
Whoa-oh-oh! The Great Taco King!
Shouts real loud, but won't do a thing
Whoa-oh-oh! Here he goes again
Then chickens out before they kick in
Whoa-oh-oh! Headlines spin and swing
Tariff threats? A daily fling
While the world just laughs and grins
Long live! The Great Taco King!
[Bridge]
[Chanted / Stadium Style]
Raise your flags! (Whoa-oh!)
Hold your breath! (Whoa-oh!)
Another bluff! (Whoa-oh!)
Another mess! (Whoa-oh!)
He flexes loud
Then fades away
It's all just smoke
But they obey
[Final Chorus]
[Big and triumphant]
Whoa-oh-oh! The Great Taco King!
Shouts real loud, but won't do a thing
Whoa-oh-oh! Here he goes again
Then chickens out before they kick in
Whoa-oh-oh! Headlines spin and swing
Tariff threats? A daily fling
While the world just laughs and grins
Long live! The Great Taco King!
[Outro]
[a cappella or soft build-up]
Whoa-oh-oh...
The Great Taco King!
Whoa-oh-oh-ohhh...
The Great Taco King!
