Music

The 'Container' hitmaker puts an anti-Trump spin on the holiday classic 'The Christmas Song', turning it into an a capella song 'Trump's Nuts Roasting on an Open Fire'.

AceShowbiz -

Just in time for the holidays, Fiona Apple has come up with a new Christmas song, though it's not like the regular song we normally hear. The singer/songwriter shared via her Tumblr account on Tuesday, December 6 a video of her covering Nat King Cole's "The Christmas Song". She twisted the lyrics to better reflect her hatred toward the President-elect Donald Trump.

In the clip, which only features extreme close-up view of Apple wearing glasses, the 39-year-old singer wears no make up and her hair looks untidy while she sings the dark a capella rendition. She begins singing, "Trump's nuts roasting on an open fire/ as he keeps nipping at his foes." She continues, "You'll cry creepy uncle/ every time he arrives/ for he keeps clawing at your clothes."

Elsewhere on the song, she addresses Trump's streak of promoting misogyny and racism on the campaign trail. She sings, "Everybody knows some money and entitlement/ Can help to make the season white/ Mothers of color with their kids out of sight/ Will find it hard to sleep at night."

Apple ends the song by singing, "Merry Christmas, Merry Christmas/ Donald Trump, f**k you," while she tears up a picture of Trump.

With her anti-Trump effort, Apple joins her fellow musicians including Meek Mill, Eminem, Macklemore and Nicki Minaj among others who have released songs condemning the President-elect. The latest musician to take a shot at Trump is pop diva Madonna. She covered Britney Spears' "Toxic" at a charity event in Miami on Friday, December 2 while images of Trump were projected onto the screen behind her.
