Help me write an anti-Bush song for the 3/20 Crawford protest!

[derby378]

This song is set to the tune of The Mary Ellen Carter. If you haven't heard it yet, look for it on the Net or in collections of Irish or seafaring songs. Let us see your ideas!

Here's some lines to get it started:

It was a year ago in Baghdad and the missiles fell like rain
But safely half a globe away, our President felt no pain
Bush let his staffer preen his hair and he never would explain
The truth behind the rationale for war

But he warned us all of nerve gas and of bioweapon hell
He scared us with uranium that Niger tried to sell
Bush spoke of "liberation" until even Kerry fell
For the latest round of White House lies again!

CHORUS
Lies again, lies again
Let the Neo-Cons fight us until the bitter end
Those who know them best know they are lying, crooked men
And will deceive us all with Bush’s lies again!

OK, now it's your turn...

1. don't know it, but try this

THE SPAWN OF BARBARA
(To the tune of “This Joint Is Jumping”)

THEY PLAN GLOBAL EXPANSION BUT IN A FAMILY WAY
THEY’RE CHUMMY WITH THE SAUDIS AND PALS OF KENNY LAY
TO SAY THAT THEY ARE SHADY UNDERSTATES THE CASE
THIS DYNASTY IS SO NASTYTHEY’RE A NATIONAL DISGRACE!
(“You’ve been warned!”)

THE SPAWN OF BARBARA!
SHOULD TERRIFY YA
MARVIN JEBBY NEIL AND GEORGE
I FEAR THE SPAWN OF BARBARA

THEY’RE CORPORATE CROOKS, WHO
ALL COOK THE BOOKS, TOO
POPPY’S BROOD
IS MORE THAN RUDE
I FEAR THE SPAWN OF BARBARA

THEIR COMPASSION IS A POSE
AND THEY DON’T CARE WHAT YOU THINK
SCRATCH ANY SCANDAL AND YOUR NOSE
WILL GET A WHIFF OF BUSH-STINK

FROM JEB’S DECEPTION
IN THAT ELECTION
MARVIN’S SCORES
AND NEIL’S WHORES
I FEAR THE SPAWN OF BARBARA

THE SPAWN OF BARBARA!
SHOULD TERRIFY YA
HER FIRST BORN DESERVES THE SCORN
I FEAR THE SPAWN OF BARBARA

EACH GENERATION...
DEGENERATION
BOOZE AND PILLS,
THEY FLAUNT THEIR ILLS
THIS IS ONE GRAND ‘MUTHA’

PRESCOTT’S EVIL NAZI TIES
WERE ONLY THE BEGINNING

PEOPLE DIE WHEN DUB’YA LIES--
OH, LOOK! GEORGE ORWELL’S SPINNING!

THEIR THIRST FOR POWER
GROWS EVERY HOUR
MARVIN JEBBY NEIL AND GEORGE
I FEAR THE SPAWN OF BARBARA

(“Don’t forget to vote, no no no........!”)
