to the tune of 'there once was a union maid'

There was an alaskan maid
who never was afraid
of Moose and mice
and men in tights
and liberals who are devils

She won an election race
The incumbant was disgraced
The bridge her hiest
And Jesus Christ
is all she needs to succeed

chorus
Oh No you can't scare me
I'm Holdin on to Mobil
I'm bitin like a pit bull
I'm drillin like a numb skull
No you can't scare me
I'm holdin on to big oil
I'm shillin just for big oil
to the day I die.

She went to the Library
to see what she could see
she saw bad books
by hook or crook
she'd throw those books away.

Palin joined the NRA
and aimed at the PTA
She had 5 kids
along the way
and this is what she'd say...

NO No you can't scare me
I'm Holdin on to Mobil
I'm bitin like a pit bull
I'm drillin like a numb skull
No you can't scare me
I'm holdin on to big oil
I'm shillin just for big oil
to the day I die.

Gee, I wish I had discovered Tom Chapin's Sarah Palin song a coupla years ago. It's a great one:

Go Away, Sarah Palin.

A Sarah Palin song?

How about "Arseholes are cheap Today"

Well, ya know, Jed, it's about songs. Whether people like the songs or not, does not affect whether they go in the music section or not.
And hey, I think Tom Chapin's song is clever. I didn't see need to start a new thread for it, so I resurrected an old one.

In Scotland, resurrectionists were tried in the courts - think Burke and Hare

GO AWAY, SARAH PALIN
(Tom Chapin)

Go away, Sarah Palin. Go away.
You've had more air time than Britney or O.J.
Your ideas were unspecific,
But your outfits were terrific.
Go away, Sarah Palin. Go away.

Go away, Sarah Palin. Pass the torch.
Go on back to watching Russia from your porch.
You held out for the election.
Thanks, McCain, for your selection.
Go away, Sarah Palin. Go away.

Go away, Sarah Palin. It's goodbye.
You said any open door was worth a try.
Well here's your open door.
Let me show you what it's for.
Go away, Sarah Palin. Go away.

Go away, Sarah Palin. Cut it loose.
Go on back to hunting wolves and dressing moose.
And we hope that when you go there,
It's your final bridge to nowhere.
Go away, Sarah Palin. Go away.

We've still Tina Fey.
She was better anyway.
Go away, Sarah Palin,
Back to Alaska*, at least for four more years.


[* Sung to the first 5 notes of "Hail to the Chief."]

[Of course this belongs "above the line." Of course you're free to post pro-Palin songs here too, if you like.]

The 2024 U.S. Presidential Election Campaign has already begun. I think it began on January 6. I think we all need to consider these words from Hurricane Dave, a singer from Alaska. Dawn Berg thinks this is a perfect song for me to sing, but she's not interested in singing it herself.

PLEASE DON'T ASK ME ABOUT HER
(Hurricane Dave, 2009)

Outsiders are curious about my state
Alaska’s mountains and its glaciers and the food upon my plate
But their first question tends to grate on my last nerve
They always ask me about her.

She left me in the middle of our song
Now all my friends down South are asking what could have gone wrong.
The thought of breakin’ up seemed so absurd
So please don’t ask me about her.

You can ask me about the midnight sun
That glows in summertime
Or the northern lights of winter
Whose ribbons blow my mind
You can ask me about the Iditarod
Or the Rendezvous of Fur
But please don’t ask me about her.

When she said she loved me it was just a trick
When she winked at them I realized she was no maverick
We’d gaze across at Russia and make up words
Oh please don’t ask me about her.

Our love was a bridge to nowhere, so it seems
When she said, “Thanks but no thanks, baby,” she froze out all my dreams
“Going rogue,” she said, and flew off like a bird
Oh please don’t ask me about her.

You can ask me why Denali
Likes to hide behind the clouds
Or why those drive-in espresso stands
Always draw a crowd
You can ask me about how cold it gets
In the middle of winter
But please don’t ask me about her.

Oh I still recall how sexy
She looked in chest waders
Oh please don’t ask me about her.
You betcha
Oh please don’t ask me about her.

SARAH PALIN
(Tom Paxton)

She was for the Bridge to Nowhere, then she wasn't;
There are those who think truth matters, but she doesn't.
Seeing Russia from her back porch means she knows foreign relations,
And it's only left-wing media who ask for explanations.
Eastern liberals ask questions so obtuse;
They don’t have the sense to field-dress a moose.
But, if you're buying Sarah Palin, let me tell ya,
That I have a Bridge to Nowhere I can sell ya.
