Guest guest Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 " Battle Hymn of the Republic " Based on the performance by Julia Ward Howe " Battle Hymn of the Republican " Parody by Michael Pacholek The State of our Union is limbo! Mine eyes have seen that Georgie is a man out of his gourd. He is sending out his minions with their crates of crap on board. He has loosed the fateful lightning of the deficit's swift sword. The truth is long, long gone. Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " The truth is long, long gone. He taxes on the many to enrich the privileged few. He has said his rich man's tax cut would benefit me and you. It's just one of many things he's said that's way too far from true. The truth is long, long gone. Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " The truth is long, long gone. He has told us our security was threatened by Iraq. Weapons of the mass destruction, that's why we were on attack. But they ain't been found and five hundred men aren't coming back. The truth is long, long gone. Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " The truth is long, long gone. When he ran he said, " Compassionate conservtive's my tune! " Since the Court installed him, he's been acting like a right-wing goon. With the policies he's pushing, he's already on the Moon! The truth is long, long gone. Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " The truth is long, long gone. George Washington would tell him, " You've deceived the U.S.A.! " Ronald Reagan would say, " Well, that's not the conservative way. " And Abe Lincoln would suggest to him, " Hey, George, go see a play! " The truth is long, long gone. Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " Georgie, Georgie, tell him, " Boo-ya! " The truth is long, long gone. One year to go. January 20, 2005: Honor and integrity restored to the White House! --- Battle Hymn of the Republicans Written by wdharry99 (to the tune of the Battle Hymn of the Republic) Mine eyes have seen the bungling of that stumbling moron Bush; He has blathered all the drivel that the neo-cons can push; He has lost sight of all reason 'cause his head is up his tush; The Doofus marches on. I have heard him butcher syntax like a kindergarten fool; There is warranted suspicion that he never went to school; Should we fault him for the policies--or is he just their tool? The lies keep piling on. Glory! Glory! How he'll screw ya! Glory! Glory! How he'll screw ya! Glory! Glory! How he'll screw ya! His wreckage will live on. I have seen him cut the taxes of the billionaires' lone heir; As he spends another zillion on an aircraft carrier; Let the smokestacks keep polluting--do we really need clean air? The surplus is now gone. Glory! Glory! How he'll screw ya! Glory! Glory! How he'll screw ya! Glory! Glory! How he'll screw ya! Your safety net is gone! Now he's got a mighty hankerin' to bomb a prostrate state; Though the whole world knows its crazy--and the U.N. says to wait; When he doesn't have the evidence, " We must prevaricate. " Diplomacy is done! Oh, a trumped-up war is excellent; we have no moral bounds; Should the reasons be disputed, we'll just make up other grounds; Enraging several billions--to his brainlessness redounds; The Doofus marches on! Glory! Glory! How he'll screw ya! Glory! Glory! How he'll screw ya! Glory! Glory! How he'll screw ya! THIS...DOO...FUS...MAR...CHES...ON ---- " The Battle Hymn of the Republican " Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the war It brings more military contracts and the drafting of the poor It lets us build our pipelines so the profits are much more The truth is trampled on Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! The truth is trampled on. The prisoners that we've tortured and whose rights we snatch away Are just trivial details when there's oil on the way And let everyone go and buy an S-U-V today The truth is trampled on Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! The truth is trampled on. We will lie and we will cheat and we will generally deceive Tales of W-M-D and propaganda we will weave We will hold Iraqi oil fields and never ever leave The truth is trampled on Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! The truth is trampled on. Environment and education matter not at all If asked some questions without answers we can always stall 'Cause we spin the news releases and the people are in thrall The truth is trampled on Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! The truth is trampled on. The old, the poor, the blacks and women we can still control Give 'em something with the left hand while the right hand takes the toll Don't stop now and don't look back because we're really on a roll The truth is trampled on Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! The truth is trampled on. And now that it's election time we've got some work to do John Kerry must be seen to be a liar through and through And never can the people see just how they have been screwed The truth is trampled on Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! Glory! Glory! Halliburton! The truth is trampled on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
