    The Age of Aquarius is one of my very favorite songs. Your parody is excellent. I love the way you can sing all 4 parts of the harmony. If DJT gets back in office it will be the age that will destroy us.

    I am a daughter of parents who came of age during the Civil Rights movement, the Vietnam War protests, etc, and the music from that era has always been up my alley. Part of that music was, of course, the musical "Hair," which I absolutely adore. Seeing this parody made my day, and since I sent it to my mom on Facebook, it's bound to make hers as well. You've got yourself a new subscriber! :-D

    One of the best parts of the parody that I've been noticing, along with the way the backgrounds sound like the original songs, is the fact that they're also mainly in the same keys as the original songs. Brilliant.

    Your line, "when the loon is in the White House...", reminded me of a few limericks I composed between September of 2015 when Trump was one of eleven "wanna-be President" candidates for the GOP on the first televised debate. They were published in my first (of two) books of limericks. The book was published before the November 2016 election. I was terrified then...and still am! Here are those limericks.
    Chapter 17…Politics, historical figures & events
    Author’s note: This is one of the longer chapters in the book. Why? Donald Trump managed to generate a huge amount of newsprint and video clips, especially with the advent of the Republican Party’s debates on TV, that began in early September of 2015.
    Upfront disclosure… “If I had the authority to select the next President of the USA…Trump would not be my choice!”
    So…the first 18 (+/-) limericks, in this chapter, are about “Thee Donald” and are not generally complimentary!
    Donald is a wealthy puppeteer
    who presumes he can control by fear.
    He understands fully,
    he’s a world class bully
    and there is no one who is his peer.
    I’m thinking Trump is dumb like a fox.
    His campaign moves are “out-of-box”.
    His price for one debate,
    would help clean the slate,
    for wounded vets, fighting-off hard knocks.
    Trump and his minions, each with a broom,
    swept up…before Mister Trump would boom…
    “These are my golf courses
    and my string of horses.
    They’re pawns when bankruptcy might loom.”
    Trump is as subtle as a Mack truck
    and twice as fast as a hockey puck.
    Mount Rushmore is his quest
    and he’s said not in jest…
    “Watch me, as I create my own luck.”
    Trump is quite rash, brash and outspoken.
    He plays loose with facts he has chosen.
    “The Towers disappeared…
    thousands of Muslims cheered…”
    said Trump…again leaving truth broken.
    Politics can yield strange bedfellows.
    The proof is to be had when Trump bellows…
    “I obey all of our laws
    including ones with flaws
    While fleecing bankers who are marshmallows.”
    Trump, a billionaire, full of hot air…
    easy to spot with his trademark hair.
    Adept at bankruptcy…
    superb at lunacy
    and able to get more than his share.
    Should Donald Trump throw out the baby
    with the bath water on some Sunday?
    Trump will not flinch or blink
    about what you think,
    because babies don’t vote, anyway.
    Will Donald Trump drop out of the race?
    If he does, will he need to save face?
    President or bust,
    for him seems a must.
    He’s said, “Mount Rushmore will hold my place.”
    If Trump were elected President,
    Will you lose your house and have to rent?
    As far as I can see,
    he’s good at bankruptcy
    and spending OPM * is evident. *Other People’s Money
    Trump’s crude and unrefined…like oil.
    His temper rises quickly to a boil.
    Sometimes he’ll be mellow
    but mostly he will bellow.
    And his hair? His secret is tinfoil
    Trump reminds me of Mister Bluster.
    He sees himself as General Custer.
    Donald’s a curmudgeon,
    for whom running is fun.
    Will Trump’s bluster pass muster?
    Trump is the King of Interruption,
    With a temper like an eruption,
    volcanic in nature…
    and very immature.
    He was born with a lot of gumption.
    Trump irritates me most with his smirks,
    which is but one of his many quirks.
    his hair is another
    (gifted from his mother)?
    Conning jerks is a job…he never shirks.
    Acid from his tongue is corrosive
    and his words are often explosive.
    Trump is devoid of tact.
    He has one gear, “ATTACK.”
    Trump’s brainwashing skills are erosive.
    Some say Trump governs “The Twitter-Verse”.
    Maybe he does, but he’s crude and worse.
    I don’t want his hand
    near the button that can
    launch nukes that can destroy the universe.
    Trump fired off several big fibs.
    after rehearsing his ad-libs.
    His speeches were uncouth
    and he ignored the truth,
    treating voters like kids in a crib.
    One day, I will hear…Donald Trump died.
    I’ll go into shock…and be tongue-tied.
    Will we know how he passed?
    Was it slow? Was it fast?
    What’s that? Did he die swallowing his pride?
    Trump will sue you for breach of contract
    or defamation, if you, in fact
    dare to question his words
    or say “You’re for the birds.”
    Why? His skill sets are devoid of tact.
    Voters…meet Vanity…Donald Trump.
    He’s definitely not Forrest Gump.
    His hubris? Amazing.
    His rants? Quite scathing.
    Hey, Donald Trump...get off your stump.
    The “No-Trump” part of this chapter starts here:

    I'm much later than others to this party, but so glad I got here! So uplifting (at the end)! Now I can close down my laptop with a smile on my face, as I prepare to go watch The Nightly News -- which will likely wipe that smile right off.

    Thanks for this! I heard the original song INNUMERABLE times when it was current in my youth, and never had any particular fondness for it. So it's good to hear something good come from it at last!
