Sacha Baron Cohen lyrics

The following are among lyrics sung by an unidentified actor, likely Sacha Baron Cohen, during the "March for Our Rights" rally in Olympia on June 27.

Obama, what we gotta do?

Inject him with the Wuhan flu. Inject him with the Wuhan flu.

Let’s hear it.

Hillary Clinton, what we gotta do?

Lock her up like we used to do. Lock her up like we used to do.

(Sung as a responsive sing-a-long)

Fauci don’t know his head from his ass,

He must be smoking grass.

I ain’t lying, it ain’t no joke.

Corona is a liberal hoax. Corona is a liberal hoax.

Dr. Fauci, what we gotta do?

Inject him with the Wuhan flu. Inject him with the Wuhan flu.

W.H.O., what we gotta do,

Chop ‘em up like the Saudis do. Chop ‘em up like the Saudis do.

OLYMPIA –– The actor Sacha Baron Cohen, famous for movies like “Borat” and “Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby,” was widely reported on social media to have made an uninvited participant in the “March For Our Rights” rally in Olympia on Saturday. The group aligns itself with right-wing positions on political issues.

“March for Our Rights” this year had live music at the event, one of which was a last-minute band booked by the production company that helped plan the event, the event’s main organizer said in a video on social media.

Baron Cohen, or someone using his tactics, performed as the lead singer of a fake band of which the name is unknown, and sang at least one song during his performance. One song referred to “chopping them up,” and “gassing them like the Germans do,” and referenced Antifa, Mexico, “sleepy Joe Biden” and a variety of other groups, countries and topics hotly debated in American discourse.
