Stay The Course Is Dead, Wilbur.

Stay The Course Is Dead
(To the tune of “I am Mister Ed” by Ray Evans and Jay Livingstone)

We never were staying the course, of course
Although we all screamed it ‘til we were hoarse
And now we lie with no remorse
Stay the course is dead

Now heed the decider’s holy writ
What he’s said for years you must forget
Except the fact he’s full of it
Stay the course is dead

Yes, all of us know the future’s bleak
And come election day
The voters all will clearly speak
Unless we take that right away (Hmm say, umm Karl?)

Recording devices they are our curse
Our heads are still spinning as we rehearse
The echo chamber sans one verse

Repeat after us …. (ya gots no choice!!)

Stay … the ….course ….is … dead (?)

1. Is this song Satanic when you sing it backwards, just like

the original?

Good work, btw.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

2. Pentagrams are BYO, just in case :)

Thanks Lautremont!!

[Sugar Smack]

3. YOU!! Thank you for that!

I really love it. You have such a good sense of humor, and a heart that's exactly in the right place.

Plus, MAD SKILLZ.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

5. YOU!! Are so very welcome!!

So glad you loved it *melt*

MAD SKILLZ! *Strikes worst gangsta pose ever*

This one was a mad scramble LOL I was heating supper and the first lines came to me, and a dash for paper and a pen ensued that would've made Mack Sennett proud

[Sugar Smack]

7. So your ideas come to you while you cook?

Mine come to me while I sleep, which isn't always good. Ah! My kingdom for one dreamless sleep.

[SalmonChantedEvening]

9. I think it's more when I'm distracted and not really pushing the issue

Of writing lyrics. Something will make me giggle and it snowballs from there.

May you dream of my typing skills tonight.. They are non-existant.

If you saw me typing this, you'd be laughing as hard as I am right now.

13. Thankee DFL

It's gone the way of Hannity saying "you can support the troops and not the president" i.e. it either never happened, or it only applies to non-gopUKE preznits

[Viva_La_Revolution]

12. I'm rolling on the floor!

Course the kids and the cats think I've lost it.

I didn't even realize I still remembered that tune. Thanks SCE!

[SalmonChantedEvening]

14. Just tell them to mind their own binness

The cats that is. Explain it to the kids, so the cats'll be jealous.

I'm still shocked I wrote it as fast as I did
