    Off the top of my head: Iraq, 9/11, the PATRIOT act, Afghanistan (and the withdrawal), Katrina, Obama, Trump (and maybe a mention for J6), the Ukraine war, the Uyghur genocide, Snowden, the Panama Papers, Epstein, the Gaza genocide, the Queen dying, and maybe a snarky verse referencing Liz Truss and the lettuce.

      The pandemic, Maduro, something about Brexit and Nigel Farage, Elon Musk, Tim Cook, Bezos and Jensen Huang, Jewish space lasers, Netanyahu, bitcoin, Kim Jong Un, Xi Jinping, Modi, Julian Assange and Kim Dotcom.

        all excellent contenders as well, yes, though I’m not sure Greene’s space lasers insanity was a big enough “thing” to qualify for a verse

        Is he? Because I can recite the lyrics from memory and I can’t recall singing anything about the tangerine toddler terrorist.

          No, you’re %100 correct, I had it mixed up with end of the world as we know it, but it doesn’t call him by name it just says the word. I looked up both sets of lyrics. I just woke up, I hope that you and Billy Joel can forgive me. My coffee is still brewing.
