| Original Song Title: | "This Land Is Your Land" |
| Original Performer: | Woody Guthrie |
| Parody Song Title: | "This Land Is Bush Land" |
| Parody Written by: | Laurie Kittle |
I wrote this in a fitful fury, frustrated over the way life's been going.
This land is Bush land
This land is Bush land, this land is Cheney land
From ultra-conservatives, to the moral majority
From the red-faced liars, to addled brained schemers
This lands been raped by the elite
As I was stumbling down a treacherous mindset
I saw before me a mountain of bad debt
I saw below me a red inked blotter
This lands been raped by the elite
I've groaned and grappled about them firing falsehoods
To stoned to see straight are those drunken dimwits
When what astounds me is all their clowning
This lands been raped by the elite
The sun shines only on those controlling
The labyrinth of minefields that societies blowing
As the dogs of war comes a-panting
This lands been raped by the elite
As I was coughin' --- I saw the smog there
All across the valleys -- trees were diein'
But it don't matter -- global warmings comin'
This lands being killed by you and me
In the square-headed conscience of rounded people
Nearing no relief -- it's here we topple
With countries crumblin' -- still we're left wonderin'
Why this lands being raped by the elite.
This land is Bush land, this land is Cheney land
From ultra-conservatives, to the moral majority
From the red-faced liars, to addled brained schemers
This lands been raped by the elite
As I was stumbling down a treacherous mindset
I saw before me a mountain of bad debt
I saw below me a red inked blotter
This lands been raped by the elite
I've groaned and grappled about them firing falsehoods
To stoned to see straight are those drunken dimwits
When what astounds me is all their clowning
This lands been raped by the elite
The sun shines only on those controlling
The labyrinth of minefields that societies blowing
As the dogs of war comes a-panting
This lands been raped by the elite
As I was coughin' --- I saw the smog there
All across the valleys -- trees were diein'
But it don't matter -- global warmings comin'
This lands being killed by you and me
In the square-headed conscience of rounded people
Nearing no relief -- it's here we topple
With countries crumblin' -- still we're left wonderin'
Why this lands being raped by the elite.

I hope both conservatives and liberals can appreciate the passion you put into this, Laurie. It's polemic and political, true, but regardless of that, it's passionate and shows your pain.
Oh THANK you...if anything can get Mr. Pacholek to come out of hiding, it might be this. I'm crossing my fingers, anyway...
This looks like it was written by Bush himself... so for making him look even worse, you get a five, even if Woody himself would use his machine to send him a message. (Guthrie scratched the words "This machine kills fascists" on his guitars.)
