[Trump] went down to Georgia
He was lookin' for a [vote] to steal
He was in a bind 'cause he was way behind
And he was willin' to make a deal
When he came across this [woman]
[Makin' democracy] hot
And [Trump] jumped upon a hickory stump
And said,"[Girl], let me tell you what"(2)
"I guess you didn't know it, but I'm a [politician], too
And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you
Now you [make democracy good], [girl], but give the Devil his due
I'll bet [an election] of gold against your soul
'Cause I think I'm better than you"

(3/11)
The [girl] said, "My name's [Stacey], and it might be a sin
But I'll take your bet, you're gonna regret
'Cause I am the best that's ever has been

(4/11)
[Stacey], rosin up your [voters] and play your [democracy] hard
'Cause Hell's broke loose in Georgia and the Devil deals the cards
And if you win, you get this shiny [election] made of gold
But if you lose, the devil gets your soul

(5/11)
[Trump] opened up his [phone] and he said, "I'll start this show"
And fire flew from his fingertips as he [dialed on] his [phone]
And he [called the Georgia Secretary of State] and he made an evil hiss
And a band of [lawyers] joined in, and it sounded somethin' like this

“All I want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have … And there's nothing wrong with saying that, you know, um, that you've recalculated.” – Donald J. Trump to Brad Raffensperger (GA Secretary of State) on January 2nd, 2021

(7/11)
When [Trump] finished
[Stacey] said, "Well, you're pretty [evil] ol' son
But sit down in that chair right there
And let me show you how it's done"

(8/11)
"Fire [up the voters]", [vote], boys, run
The Devil's in the house of the risin' sun
[Perdue] in the bread pan pickin' out dough
Granny, does [Loeffler] bite? No, child, no

(9/11)
[Trump] bowed his head because he knew that he'd been beat
And he laid that golden [election] on the ground at [Stacey’s] feet
[She] said, "Devil, just come on back if you ever wanna try again
I told you once, you son of a b**ch
I'm the best that's ever been" [she] played (10)
"Fire [up the voters]", [vote], boys, run
The Devil's in the house of the risin' sun
[Perdue] in the bread pan pickin' out dough
Granny, does [Loeffler] bite? No, child, no

4/ Before the arrival of recorded music, what used to be scarce was the actual music itself — required an in-person artist.

After recorded music, the music itself became abundant and what became scarce was curation, distribution, and self space.

5/ Similarly, in careers, what used to be (more) scarce were things like ideas, money, and exclusive relationships.

In the internet economy, what has become scarce are things like specific knowledge, rare & valuable skills, and great reputations.
