At its core, the song depicts a figure - the "Don" - who refuses to accept reality when it doesn't favor him. The lyrics suggest a world where "winning’s just a better lie" and "if the count don’t work... the count don’t exist". It’s about the power of persistent gaslighting - the idea that if you say something "until the doubt sounds right," you can effectively rewrite history and rules to ensure you never truly lose. The "Don" is portrayed as a master of "spin," turning every failure or "lost notch" into a rigged game rather than a personal defeat.

I view this as an example of satirical swing. The song utilizes a theatrical, big-band swing style that feels both grand and frantic. The brass sections and driving rhythm create an "unstoppable" momentum that mirrors the character's relentless ego. The vocals are delivered with a charismatic, "showman" flair, perfectly capturing the persuasive yet untrustworthy nature of the protagonist. While the beat is catchy enough for a dance floor, the lyrics are biting and cynical. It’s a clever commentary on how people in power can use rhetoric to create an "alternate state of mind" where they are the perpetual victors. It feels like a villain song from a modern musical - infectious and dark.

Do It Again, Don

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse]
Headlines in the dead of night
Same excuse, another fight
If the truth won’t take your side
You just say it’s all a lie

[Pre-chorus]
Say it once, say it twice
Say it till the doubt sounds right
If losing’s just a state of mind
Then winning’s just a better lie

[Chorus]
Whoa, do it again, Don
Spin it till it fits
If the count don’t work
Say the count don’t exist
Whoa, do it again, Don
Same old plan
If you don’t win
Just do it again

[Break]

[Verse]
Rules are fine if you you win
If not, you swear they’re rigged again
Funny how “fair" disappears
When the mirror shows a loss, not cheers

[Pre-chorus]
Say it once, say it twice
Say it till the doubt sounds nice
If losing’s just a state of mind
Then winning’s just a better lie

[Chorus]
Whoa, do it again, Don
Spin it till it fits
If the count don’t work
Say the count don’t exist
Whoa, do it again, Don
Same old plan
If you don’t win
Just do it again

[Bridge]
Truth don’t shout
It waits its turn
Ticks like a clock
While stories burn

[Interlude]

[Final chorus]
Whoa, do it again, Don
Spin it till it fits
If the count don’t work
Say the count don’t exist
Whoa, do it again, Don
Same old plan
If you don’t win
Just do it again

[Outro]
Whoa, do it again, Don
Whoa, do it again, Don
Whoa, do it again, Don
If you don’t win
Just do it again

if you don't win just say you did

Yes!
FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS! FOUR MORE YEARS!

I have no idea what you're talking about. If you mean Trump ... he's got less than 3 years left, if he doesn't get impeached before his term is over.

You're not fooling anyone, Rob.
You're just another communist political activist, who writes like Greta Thunberg, hiding behind A I....
Hillary lost.
Biden is a vegetable.
Kamala/Newsome are retards.
Springsteen is dead.

Get over it.

Yeah, that's what the song is about. Just say it often enough.

Mafai Don ? about it on our government , Sounds good Rob

Thanks Ben. If "the Don" repeats his lies over and over again, some people might actually think that maybe the election 2020 was rigged even though there was absolutely no evidence. The interesting thing is, the elections in 2016 and 2024 weren't rigged, just 2020. Does that make any sense? Ok, he won the one's that weren't rigged. I get it. And of course, the mid terms will be rigged again. Well, we'll see if that happens.
