Did someone say FEMA Camps?

[SalmonChantedEvening]

Guess We’ll Hafta Fake It
(To the tune of We’re Not Gonna Take It – The Who)

Welcome to the camp, I wish I knew why you are here.
It’s run by FEMA, and the ice trucks still aren’t here
Now if you’d follow me, down to the Dining Hall
There’s nothing to eat here, nothing to drink
Just two-hundred thousand sporks

The beds where you bunk, they’re sorry
The blankets rust
And as a special feature, we never dust
And the clothes you think are thermal
Disintegrate in frost
You’re gonna hafta scrounge all the soap that you need
That truck is also lost

Guess we’ll hafta fake it
Guess we’ll hafta fake it

(ch.)
Guess we’ll hafta fake it
Understaffed and over billed
Guess we’ll hafta fake it
‘Cause he fences still ain’t built
Guess we’ll hafta fake it
Understaffed and over billed
Guess we’ll hafta fake it
It’s too late to
Educate you
We’ll just stick you with the bill

You will speak freely, a right you almost killed
Yes we can hear you, our ears ring still
No prisons hold you, save those you yourself create
Thank goodness that Brownie still ain’t in charge
Lest fantasy be fate

Guess we’ll hafta fake it
Guess we’ll hafta fake it

(repeat ch and fade)

1. K&R. I'm only the fourth, but I know where you can get the fifth... ;)

Yet another gem. Thanks for posting this! :applause: :hi:

Are you a musician? I know you play the drums, right? You should record these... Maybe we can start a musical forum, like the political one. :bounce: ;)

3. Hi Rhiannon :)

I have a standing offer to anyone at DU who feels like recording these to do so with my blessing.

I don't have the techie skills for it. :blush:

[Rhiannon12866]

10. Awwww... I'd like to hear your songs performed, but I'd rather hear you. ;)

There are so many talented folks on this board that I'm sure that there's somebody with the expertise... I mean, can anyone ask a question here to which somebody here doesn't know the answer? DU is an amazing resource, better than Google, LOL. :bounce: :D

I think I got you that fifth rec, but apparently he didn't get a chance to post yet... ;) :hi:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

20. He replied in his usual way

Too kindly :)

5:30 am is already to close, and I'm in need of rest before As The Rotor Turns starts again.

:hi: :loveya:

[Rhiannon12866]

21. Oh, there he is, LOL.

You should be honored that he took time out of his video game for you, more than he'll do for me... ;)

Get some rest, my friend. Hope that you had a restful holiday. :hi::hug::boring:

9. Well done, SCE

:applause: I especially liked your use of the word "disintegrate". To find that long a word with the perfect meter for the line is like realizing you can do "quixotic" in Scrabble.
