Once Super Bowl LII in Minneapolis was over and the Left could return to its Trump-bashing, Jimmy Fallon, appearing at the Orpheum Theatre in Minneapolis, seized his chance to join the brigade, posing as Bob Dylan and changing the lyrics to Dylan’s “The Times they Are A-Changin” to call Trump an “Internet troll” while defending kneeling for the national anthem.
Dressed as Dylan complete with sunglasses, Fallon cursed Trump while lauding Michelle Obama, singing, “Come leaders who bully like Internet trolls. We’ll curse you with four-letter words ‘love’ and ‘hope.’ For we will go high even when you go low.”
Here are the lame lyrics Fallon sang:
Come gather round people wherever you roam
And admit that our country don’t feel like our home
And that silence speaks louder than those who condone
If a tweet to you is worth favin’
Then lift up your voices and put down your phones
For the times they are a-changin’
Come women and men who hashtag Me Too
And believe me when I say that we believe you
For weak is the man who calls truth “fake news”
Time’s up, our silence we’re breaking
And even though Mel Gibson was in Daddy’s Home 2
Well, the times they are a-changin’
Come athletes with platforms throughout the land
Who by taking a knee are taking a stand
And before you shout out that they should be banned
Listen to what they are saying
Perhaps they’d stand up if you reached out your hand
Well, the times they are a-changing
Come journalists, writers who report the facts
And brandish your pen to fend off his attacks
Look past what he says and look at how he acts
The fire and fury is raging
For his words can hurt, but your words can fight back
New York Times, they aren’t a-failin’
Come leaders who bully like Internet trolls
We’ll curse you with four-letter words “love” and “hope”
For we will go high even when you go low
The order is re-arranging
For you have the power, but we have the vote
The times they are a-changin’
