"The Principal" is the third track by Melanie Martinez that is featured on her sophomore album, K-12. The official music video, originally available as part of the film, was separately released on October 24, 2019.
This song uses the Principal as a metaphor for the 45th President of the United States, Donald Trump. It is a critique for how he is cruel and greedy, allowing innocent people, including children, to die just so he can get his way. Throughout his presidency, he has caused a great deal of separation among his people and causes many people to struggle.
