🎶 "You’ll Pay Back

요즘 트럼프가 관세 정책을 펼치는 것을 보면 해밀턴 뮤지컬에서 영국 국왕이 부르는 노래가 생각난다. 이미지가 비슷한데, 동일 주제는 아니지만 이미 트럼프 버젼 패러디가 있긴 하다.

ChatGPT를 통해서 패러디 가사를 만들어보았는데 누가 진짜로 영상을 만들어주면 재미있을 것 같다.
(굳이 부연하자면 나는 트럼프를 싫어하는 것은 아니다. 예전에도 보호무역주의는 있었고 역사는 반복되는 것일 뿐이라고 생각한다.)

🎤 Verse 1
You said free trade was great,
You shipped jobs out of our state—
I said, "Nope! Not on my shift,"
You’ll feel the weight of my tariff.

You thought I’d roll and bend,
But now I tax your goods, my friend!
The art of the deal, it’s true—
You need me more than I need you.

🎶 Chorus
You’ll pay back!
Soon you’ll see,
That no one slaps a tariff like me.
You’ll pay back!
Wait and watch—
I’ll bring your exports to a full stop.
Trade wars are easy to win,
I’ll raise the tax, then do it again—
And if you cry, I’ll just tweet:
"China’s weak. America’s elite."

🎤 Bridge (spoken, with dramatic flair)
Sad! You took advantage of us for years.
But guess what? No more.
Steel? Taxed. Aluminum? Taxed.
French wine? Maybe next week.
🇺🇸 AMERICA FIRST.

🎶 Outro
You’ll come back—on your knees!
Just to sell more cheap TVs.
So don’t whine, don’t protest—
I’m the best! (Believe me. I’m the best.)
