This song is supposed to be sang by George W. Bush. Since I suspect lots of
people will do a parody of this song in election year, thanks for reading mine!
P.S. it's a little longer than the original, because I had to do it for school a
while ago and there was a length we had to fulfill.Please, this was
written by a kid. be nice.

This Land is MY Land
This land is my land, it is not your land,
From the nuclear bombs, to the horrible wasteland,
From the selfish people, to the poor economy,
This land is made for only me.
As I was walking
That ribbon of highway,
I saw around me,
The endless byway.
I saw below me,
Endless roadkill
This land is made for only me.
This land is my land, it is not your land,
From the nuclear bombs, to the horrible wasteland,
From the selfish people, to the poor economy,
This land is made for only me.
I've roamed and rambled,
Around the country,
And all around me
Was endless poverty.
All around me
A voice was sounding,
This land is made for only me.
This land is my land, it is not your land,
From the nuclear bombs, to the horrible wasteland,
From the selfish people, to the poor economy,
This land is made for only me.
The sun never comes shining
In this endless piling
Of murder and robbing,
The fog never lifts,
The voice still chanting,
This land is made for only me.
This land is my land, it is not your land,
From the nuclear bombs, to the horrible wasteland,
From the selfish people, to the poor economy,
This land is made for only me.
My name is Georgie,
I've made a waste-ie,
Of your economy,
Ruined your airways,
And made more highways,
This land is made for only me.
This land is my land, it is not your land,
From the nuclear bombs, to the horrible wasteland,
From the selfish people, to the poor economy,
This land is made for only me.
My daddy gave me
Opportunities
To be the president,
Like I'm his mini me.
This land is made for only me.
This land is my land, it is not your land,
From the nuclear bombs, to the horrible wasteland,
From the selfish people, to the poor economy,
This land is made for only me.
I've raised your taxes,
I've screwed up country's peace,
I'm Reagan's puppet toy
This land is made for only me.
This land is my land, it is not your land,
From the nuclear bombs, to the horrible wasteland,
From the selfish people, to the poor economy,
This land is made for only me.
I'm cutting down nature,
I'm overly mining,
I'm not a nature lover,
And that's for sure.
This land is made for only me.
This land is my land, it is not your land,
From the nuclear bombs, to the horrible wasteland,
From the selfish people, to the poor economy,
This land is made for only me.
Now vote for me,
Professional idiot,
To be
Your president.
This land is made for only me.
This land is my land, it is not your land,
From the nuclear bombs, to the horrible wasteland,
From the selfish people, to the poor economy,
This land is made for only me.

Sorry, I just didn't think it was funny
Well, look beyond the natural wonders such as the diamond deserts and the golden valleys and there is insanity. You have the right idea.
Sad but true. George "the Barbarian" Bush has gone much too far. Quite depressing to see this happening, and the asshole at the top who's doing these things thinks nothing of it.
Try living somewhere like.....Sudan; you don't know what a wasteland is.
Bush didn't do all this stuff. Look at the crap Clinton left him with.
Beaner...I don't know where to start. First off, step away from the pen with your hands up. Making your writing public should be illegal - not for its political content, but for its poor form. This is a lot of bad PR for public school, amigo. Gramatically it's a mess. Let's start with your intro. The song is supposed to be *sung* not sang. Secondly, pick a tense for cyring out loud and stick with it, i.e. "murder and robbing" should be either "murdering and robbing" or "murder and robbery." Lyrically, I have neither time nor space to address the repeated words (endless, and economy for instance), insane word pictures (endless pile of murder and robbing?) and complete absense of rhythm. Musically, you're missing half a phrase - sometimes less - on most of the "verses" and the rhythmic content is random. Politically, it's clear that you've been effectively saturated in tired and meaningless expressions that make like-minded people laugh. Invest in an original thought, kiddo. Your apparent enthusiasm for the left can only help those on the right. In that regard, keep up the good work... Intellectually, one can only hope that you were heavily intoxicated at the time you wrote this. What the hell is "overly mining," and what exactly has the President mined lately? Don't break the silence unless you can improve upon it. Scholastically, if you got a passing grade on this, your teacher should be transferred to cafeteria service. I know you asked for a kind treatment, since you're a kid, but just.....damn. Figure out what you do well and stick with it. I'd just like to suggest that using the English language for anything more than ordering an extra value meal isn't looking like your strong suit. I hope you're not old enough to vote. All the best- Aragorn
I loved the parody, but I have some things to say to 'Aragorn' Shut up for crying out loud! This is a kid! And Aragorn is a character from a book. You shouldn't be talking about 'unoriginal' or 'stupid.' God, you must have some nerve! How about you step away from your computer once in your life?
I teach this child and I am appaled. This child is in 1st grade. Also, she did not write 'sung,' she wrote 'sang,' proper grammar. She typed this in 5 minutes, for she was in a hurry to get to art class. I think a few small errors in grammar can be accounted for. I could go on for hours about all the grammar mistakes in your letter, 'Aragorn.' You disgust me. You should be sent away to your land, 'Middle Earth,' because you have none of the sense that is necessary to live in this world. This child is a wonderful writer, with a sense of the world and a vocabulary years beyond her age. You should not be speaking to her or cursing at her in any way.
