The Lyrics

(long instrumental opening)

I want to run
I want to hide
from all those crazy right-wing
guys who've always lied.
I want to reach out
and end their game
where those creeps have no shame.

I want to feel sunlight on my face
to see the Bushies disappear
without a trace.
They brought war, recession and some poisoned rain
where those creeps have no shame.

Where those creeps have no shame.
Where those creeps have no shame.
They're still buidling
then burning each bridge.
Burning each bridge.
I only can go there
to save me and you.
It's all I can do.

(instrumental break)

The city's aflood.
Bush chooses to rust.
He goes on vacation while our troops
are blown up in dust.
He hides from his scandals
on Texas' desert plain
where those creeps have no shame.

Where those creeps have no shame.
Where those creeps have no shame.
They're still buidling
then burning each bridge.
Burning each bridge.
I only can go there
to save me and you.
It's all I can do.

This bum, we can't trust.
We're beaten by how he has sinned.
How he has sinned.
Oh, but I see love.
And we shake off the rust.
We're beaten by how he has sinned.
How he has sinned.
But we will go there.
We'll win, me and you.
It's what we must do.

(instrumental close)

This ought to spin up the trolls like one of those rip stick racers they sell the kiddies. This one comes off just a tad too angry, not that anger isn't understandable.

So noted, Mason. Or, as that other incompetent, lying George, Costanza, would say, "I am aware! I am aware!"

Really, change "left" to "right" "Bush" to "Bill" and "Bushies" to "Clintons" and you've got exactly what we "others" think of you--except for the part about running and hiding. We'd like to go upside yo' head.

Hey, it's not our fault that Obama can't count... or that Hillary can't speak Southern... or that Corzine can't drive... or that Bill held an elective war in Kosovo... or that Gore pollutes about 20 times more than anybody else does... or that Camden, New Jersey is the most dangerous city in the USA... or that Charles Rust-Tierney's into kiddie porn... or that Cuba's health care sucks... or that you're obviously anudder viktom uv tha publick edyookayshun sistom.
Burnbra Bush - May 18, 2007 - Report this comment
Reflection, you're the type of creep that tries their best to make Republicanism and Conservatism dirty words. Obviously he hates what the Bush administration has done, but how does that automatically peg him as a leftie or a Clinton fan? This is the kind of simple-minded childish partisanism that's suppressing intelligent dialogue among everyday Americans. Wake up, with a sub-40 approval rating (being generous here), OBVIOUSLY a lot of right wingers are dissatisfied customers. And at least the anti-Bush parodists who wish to speak their minds don't hide behind a million fake names and spend half the day running around to different computers to dump low scores on the same parody... Michael, a bit too strident and angry for my taste, I think your anger would be put to more effective use in slightly more nuanced parodies. Just my opinion.

Burnbra Bush. I just want to make an observation. . .I think you are a Republican, but you don't anger me like many other Republicans have by being extreem. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but you actually seem to be a reasonable Republican (sorry if that's insulting to you, I hate political fighting, it annoys me personally--but many Republicans here have been very hateful towards me and my beliefs). . .Michael, as always, I do find you funny, but wow you like to insight some fights. . .politics. . .go figure. . .I'm with Dylan though, the Republicrat party that doesn't buy into either party. . .as for the parody, 5 for pacing, 3 for funny (it's not bad, but you've written better), and 4 for Overall (5 and 3 average to 4)

What the hell does Camden have to do with anything? Or Cuba's heath care?
Michael Pacholek - May 21, 2007 - Report this comment
He's just trying to get under my skin, McKludge, 'cause he knows I'm from New Jersey. Camden's a hole, although, like all of New Jersey's cities, it's better than it was when the corrupt Christie Whitman was governess. But he's too stupid (or too dishonest) to say that Corzine wasn't driving. And until he admits that tax cuts for the rich kill jobs and raise the deficit, he has no credibility on questioning someone's math. Hillary can't speak Southern? She can speak it just fine, since she lived in Arkansas for 18 years, or more than your mental age. When Bill went to war in Kosovo the Republicans refuses to fund it, he DIDN'T question their patriotism, and he won without losing a man. Bush could learn a lot from him, but refuses to. I don't even know who Rust-Tierney is, but I know who Mark Foley is: A Republican child-pornographer who had to resign from Congress. And will you stop with Cuba? It's meaningless without the Soviet Union. Unless your favorite baseball team needs pitching. (Don't they all?) Reflection: You wanna go upside my head? You wouldn't last 20 minutes on the streets of New Jersey. Whereas I recently went to Virginia and came out in pretty good shape. Burnbra: I admit, it's strident, but I feel the stridency is necessary for the guy, who's actually hovering around 30 percent rather than 40. Gay Voice: I don't incite fights, but I do return fire. I never throw the first punch, I throw the next 10. When people who believe as I do shut up, the other side is the only one heard. I refuse to let that happen. If they want to win, they should earn it. They have not, since 1956. (Nixon, Reagan and both Bushes all won by lying, Bush Jr. also by theft.)
