He came in smiling, said all the right lines,
But the truth was a shadow, the truth full of lies.
Confirmation circus, he played his role,
Now the house of science has lost its soul.
CDC is D–O–A,
On his watch, it fades away.
Decades of work tossed in a bin,
All for applause and a political win.
The people who doubt, who sneer at the facts,
He hands them the matches, they light the attacks.
Deep cuts to the bone of the nation’s shield,
And call it “freedom” as the systems yield.
CDC is D–O–A,
Public health led astray.
From vaccines to truth they wage their war,
And science is silenced like never before.
He said he’d defend us,
But he stripped it away…
Now the doctors are leaving,
And the children will pay.
Decimated trust, dismantled ground,
The experts are gone, no voices around.
When the storm rolls in, when the next wave hits,
We’ll count the cost of his politics.
CDC is D–O–A,
He betrayed it day by day.
Not by accident, not by mistake,
But for the power he swore he’d take.
