This is my first song parody ever. I was just sitting here working and scrolling through my music list on winamp, when I came across my 80s selection.
The whole song came in a flash, literally within 10 minutes, with a couple more to work out the meter. I hope you enjoy it. ;)
The song itself is below the fold, with all apologies to Taco.
Note: GOPper should be pronounced "Gooper". Hey, it fit, and I reserve artistic license.
Puttin' on the Fitz (To the tune of Taco's "Puttin' on the Ritz)
If you're Blue
And you don't know
Where to go to
Or how to strike where fascism sits?
... callin' on the Fitz!
White house leaks
Blow CIA agents
Covers with faked weapon
reports in their mitts?
... bring on in the Fitz!
Stop-lossed tens of thousands of our troopers
To satisfy the greed of corrupt GOPers
Super Duper!
If the reasons
To start a war
Came from a post
9-11 neocon blitz...
... hit 'em with the Fitz!
Have you seen the GOP
Condemn brown people gleefully
Keeping people unaware
Claiming bombs are in the air
White lies to bad reporters
Black suits with your tax dollars
Spending every dime
For Halliburton's billed time!
So if you're Blue
And you think it's
time Bush and Rove and
Cheney should all call it quits?
... callin' on the Fitz!
... send on in the Fitz!
... countin' on the Fitz!
