Things get uncomfortable for Oregon governor Kate Brown after she says she will "explore what might be achieved using my executive powers" on gun control, but then struggles to provide any details, and when she doesn't have her staff-prepared speech to read off of, she rambles off a series of "uhhhhs" and "uhmmmmmms".

so scary
Never got along with the heinas in mi school
Trippin' on me for smokin' super cools
on me cabeza
I want to put mi verga in la muerte!
I can do what I want and they don't complain
I want to put mi verga in la muerte!
Middle of the night, oy so silently
Me and Creeper, we cruise to the mortuary
We lift up the basket, we fill it full of mekos
We trip out when we hear our vato's echos
We do what we want, they don't complain
I want to put mi verga in la muerte
and I don't even care, how the heina died
She stares right through me with her hair sprayed to the sky, ay, ay
panocha, who I'm going to bone
'Cause the muerte heinas, they never moan
Don't even cry if I caca on the pelo
Hey check it out ese, she's got a brown halo
I can do what I want and they don't complain
I want to put mi verga in la muerte!
