when i commissioned this song the artist kept suggesting ways they might "finish" it or in some way create a complete piece of music and I had to tell them no, the whole point is that this is not a good joke

I’ve missed a lot. Are we singing “we no like it to the tune of rock the Casbah? Or are we just singing Rock the Casbah as if we are having a good time? OR secret third option, Rock the Casbah is about something more than what I thought it is.
I think that Robert had someone take the line, “The Sharif don’t like it” and just had them sub in “Tariffs, don’t like it”
And it’s always good to sing :)
I was raised on Disco/80s records because we could not afford CDs. When I hear this song now I hear 🎶Tariff don’t like it🎶 It’s not terrible but not great either. It resonates. Thanks Robert! 🤦🏻♂️💛😂

(some days it’s the only laugh i get so i appreciate it)
It reminds me to listen to better Clash songs; so, at worst, it is a good dad joke.
And it’s always good to sing :)
