[Chorus]
Hey, bro
Take this dispatch from Mar-a-Lago
I know
Got you a message from Mar-a-Lago
Storming the gates
Storming the gates
Storming the gates
[Verse 1]
In my room, flying the drone
Little blue birds blowing up my phone
It's a fluke, we're not under attack

[Chorus]
Hey, bro
Take this dispatch from Mar-a-Lago

Storming the gates

Storming the gates
Mar-a-Lago
Storming the gates
Storming the gates at Mar-a-Lago
[Outro]
Mar-a-Lago
Mar-a-Lago
Mar-a-Lago
Storming the gates at Mar-a-Lago
