"Chuck and Diane" (updated)
Edited on Thu Nov-15-07 08:06 AM by shadowknows69
With all apologies to John Mellencamp. Edit, ok I have more.

"Little ditty about Chuck and Diane.
Two American kids with nefarious plans.
They would sell us out to the neo-cons
While pretending to be Democrats, yeah the grift was on.

Chuckie was a Senator and so was Diane.
Chuck was from New York and she's a Californian.
Chuckie was placed to sell out the east coast.
Neo cons put Diane out west where she could do the most.

Oh yeah, the grift goes on
Two Senators selling us out again and again
Oh yeah, the grift goes on
Two Senators selling us out again and again

Senate came to a vote on Mu-Kas-Ey
Bushs' newest cronie for Attorney
Wouldn't say what torture was an evil man
All the democrats voted no except Chuck and Diane.

Sorry to say that this song has no end...
Just two more senators selling us out again
The names seem to change, but grift's just the same
There's always a few who use justice for gain.

Oh yeah, the grift goes on
Two Senators selling us out again and again
Oh yeah, the grift goes on
Two Senators selling us out again and again

Little ditty about Chuck and Diane.
Two American kids with nefarious plans.

Gonna let it rock,
Let it roll
Stop letting the beltway cons sell our souls
Keep winning elections again and again
Kick the bums out next time it's us or them."
-finis?



Sing along if you know the words or finish it for me I'm stuck lol.

The names seem to change, but grift's just the same
Hungry for power, hungry for fame
There's always a few who use justice for gain.

3. I'd just edit the last two lines.
I think the rhythm requires 4 stanzas per verse. I don't know where I pulled that music theory factoid from. Any real musicians please correst me.


eg.

8. Very nice, shadow.
I usually loathe these sorts of parodies, but I liked this one.

Good work! K&R
