Help a Republican: Let's suggest campaign songs
I read an article this morning at Talking Points Memo.

http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2010/06/stop-the-music-artists-demand-gopers-quit-playing-their-hits.php?ref=fpc">Artists demand gopers quit playing their hits

As we know, the Republicans are kind of short of artists. Let's face it: there's only so many songs Lee Greenwood has recorded. Clearly, these people have run out of ideas. So, let's suggest new music for them to campaign on. I'll start.

"Liar" by The Sex Pistols

Lyrics: LIAR LIE LIE LIE LIE! Oh you LIAR LIE LIE LIE!

"No Handlebars" by Flobots

Lyrics: I can make anyone go to prison just because I don't like 'em I can do anything with no permission

"Eve of Destruction" by Barry McGuire

Lyrics: And you tell me over and over and over again my friend I don't believe we're on the eve of destruction

1. Not "Eve of Destruction" Barry McGuire would never allow it!
Something by Charlie Daniels maybe?

2. "Kill the Poor" by the Dead Kennedys? "F'ed Up Ronnie" by DOA?
"Bonzo goes to Bitzburg" by the Ramones?

"if there's one thing that makes me sick is when someone tries to hide behind politics
i wish that time would go by fast
somehow they managed to make it last"

5. Death on 2 Legs by Queen (also the one song I would sing at a Limbaugh Wedding/Funeral)
You suck my blood like a leech
You break the law and you preach
Screw my brain till it hurts
You’ve taken all my money
And you want more
Misguided old mule with your pig headed rules
With your narrow minded cronies
Who are fools of the first division
Death on two legs
You’re tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You’ve never had a heart of your own
Kill joy bad guy big talking small fry
You’re just an old barrow boy
Have you found a new toy to replace me?
Can you face me?
But now you can kiss my ass goodbye
Feel good are you satisfied?
Do you feel like suicide?
(I think you should)
Is your conscience all right
Does it plague you at night?
Do you feel good feel good?

You talk like a big business tycoon
You’re just a hot air balloon
So no one gives you a damn
You’re just an overgrown schoolboy
Let me tan your hide
A dog with disease
You’re the king of the ’sleaze’
Put your money where your mouth is
Mister know-all
Was the fin on your back
Part of the deal? (shark)
Death on two legs
You’re tearing me apart
Death on two legs
You’ve never had a heart (you never did) of your own
(right from the start)
Insane you should be put inside
You’re a sewer rat decaying in a cesspool of pride
Should be made unemployed
Then make yourself null and void
Make me feel good I feel good

8. How about an instrumental for the next teabagger convention?
I'm thinking "Psychobilly Freakout" by the Reverent Horton Heat.

11. I offer this little ditty from Cannibal Corpse:
"Fucked with a Knife"

Which is exactly what this country would be if the Batshit Insane Party (no longer Republicans) regains the White House.
