This is is a political song. The quality of a US-leader (ex by now!) is of concern to all Western countries. The shattered glass in the photo symbolizes the effect this president has on his relationships with many people and countries except perhaps Russia...

20/09/2020: I changed the melody of the song and a bit of the lyrics.
I think it's more punchy now.

The lyrics:
It is what it is(c) HWBerkhout, 09092020

The world in trouble, we can't sleep
Democracy erodes, we weep
A president more freakish everyday
Praising dictators. Thinks it's ok!

Chorus
Mayhem and madness cause this world to decline
It is what it is while he feels fine
He's indifferent as cities burn
Call it nasty, but it's not his concern  

Black lives matter, MeToo
Pandemics and Truth ends under his shoe
No empathy, calls all a hoax 
Lies on everything, Shatters hope

Economy a loss, environment in despair 
Millions without work, he doesn't care
This leader proved he cannot reign
He can't admit it. He's so vain

Chorus
Mayhem and madness cause this world to decline
It is what it is while he feels fine
He's indifferent as cities burn
Call it nasty, but it's not his concern

Solo

Chorus2
Let's prevent voting to be toyed 
It is what it is, Democracy can't be destroyed
We'll be indifferent as his empire burns
Call it nasty but it's not our concern

Mayhem and madness make his world decline
If it is what it is, we feel fine
Call this a dream? Then dream it all your time!
It is what it is, we feel fine!

Ohh
Is it what it is? Do we feel fine?
Come on, man. Wake up !

I compose songs, write lyrics and sing most of them. I don't have  'one'  style. It depends on my mood or on certain issues that are going on in our world. AND some listeners can even tell which songs are genuine 'Birchwood-songs' (!)
