Ballad of Peter Pumpkinhead

So I came across this song from the 90s again today. And it sounded a lot like they were singing a song about the current US President.

Here are the lyrics:

Let's begin

Peter Pumpkinhead came to town
Spreading wisdom and cash around
Fed the starving and housed the poor
Showed the Vatican what gold's for

But he made too many enemies
Of the people who would keep us on our knees
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?
Oh my!

Peter Pumpkinhead fooled them all
Emptied churches and shopping malls
When he spoke, it would raise the roof
Peter Pumpkinhead told the truth

But he made too many enemies
Of the people who would keep us on our knees
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?
Oh my!

Peter Pumpkinhead put to shame
Governments who would slur his name
Plots and sex scandals failed outright
Peter merely said
Any kind of love is alright

But he made too many enemies
Of the people who would keep us on our knees
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?

Peter Pumpkinhead was too good
Had him nailed to a chunk of wood
He died grinning on live TV
Hanging there he looked a lot like you
And an awful lot like me!

But he made too many enemies
Of the people who would keep us on our knees
Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkinhead?

Hooray for Peter Pumpkin
Who'll pray for Peter Pumpkin
Hooray for Peter Pumpkinhead
Oh my oh my oh!
Don't it make you want to cry, oh

Here is a cover video from Crash Test Dummies for the sound track to the movie "Dumb and Dumber"

The song was originally from XTC from their 1992 album Nonsuch. Their video featured JFK.

So what do you think? Is this song or video or both a profetic telling of Donald Trumps rise and fall from power?

Right down to his pumpkin like orange head?

Crickets... this must be a Trumpet site...

I saw multi parallels in the Wizard of Oz last night. When the wizard is first discovered behind the curtain...


He says, "Liquidated the wicked witch, huh? Very resourceful" (defeated Hillary in the election).

On Immigration:

Wizard: "Come back tomorrow."

Dorothy: "But I want to go home now."

Wizard: "I Said Come Back Tomorrow!!"

When Toto pulls back the curtain, look at that mop of golden hair!

He's the one behind the Twitter curtain, pulling everyones levers in the Twitterverse (the emerald city).

Later he gives a diploma to the scarecrow, suddenly he can do math problems with it, lol. Trumps universities were a scam, too.

Gives a medal to the Lion -- Trump is a warmonger
Gives a heart to tinman-- Its really a clock (time is money).

The best part is for last, he will personally escort the Starlet in a balloon, all by himself.

I thought there where parallels for everyone in this profecy. The song is rather flattering if Trump was the Pumpkin Head.



But now I I'll have to watch the Wizered of Oz ... the kids might like it, it's been a while since they saw it.

Feed into the kids, they will thank you for it later when they are grown up. Its as pertinent today as back then.
