Video: Randy Rainbow Drops 'Wishin' and Hopin'' Parody

Randy Rainbow has released a new parody video, titled "Lyin' and Spinnin' (and Cheatin' and Hidin')." The new Donald Trump diss tracks takes on the recent events in the U.S. government, using Burt Bacharach and Hal David's “Wishin’ and Hopin’.”

"Let me guess – the government's annihilating your civil liberties? Attacking your fellow citizens and silencing your media? Turning your neighborhoods into war zones? You don't have a thing to wear for the apocalypse," the song starts out.

The new parody video – which follows the recent Wicked-themed "Defy Democracy" and Sabrina Carpenter parody "Fees, Fees, Fees" – was also created with Michael J Moritz Jr and Brett Boles. The song also features Justin Rothberg on guitar and Tom Jorgensen on drums.
