\nBattle Hymn of the Republicans<\/strong>
\nFeel free to sing along!<\/strong><\/font><\/a>

\nMine Eyes have seen the bungling of that stumbling moron Bush;
\nhe has blathered all the drivel that the neo-cons can push;
\nhe has lost sight of all reason ’cause his head is up his tush;
\nThe Doofus marches on.
\nI have heard him butcher syntax like a kindergarten fool;
\nThere is warranted suspicion that he never went to school;
\nShould we fault him for the policies — or is he just their tool?
\nThe lies keep piling on.
\nGlory! Glory! How he’ll Screw Ya!
\nGlory! Glory! What’s It to Ya!
\nGlory! Glory! How he’ll Screw Ya!
\nHis wreckage will live on.
\nI have seen him cut the taxes of the billionaires’ lone heir;
\nAs he spends another zillion on an aircraft carrier;
\nLet the smokestacks keep polluting – do we really need clean air?
\nThe surplus is now gone.
\nGlory! Glory! How he’ll Screw Ya!
\nGlory! Glory! What’s It to Ya!
\nGlory! Glory! How he’ll Screw Ya!
\nYour safety net is gone!
\nNow he’s got a mighty hankerin’ to bomb a prostrate state;
\nTho the whole world knows it’s crazy, and the U.N. says to wait;
\nWhen he doesn’t have the evidence, “We must prevaricate.”
\nOr Diplomacy is gone!
\nOh, a trumped-up war is excellent; we have no moral bounds;
\nShould the reasons be disputed, we’ll just make up other grounds;
\nEnraging several billions — to his brainlessness redounds;
\nThe Doofus marches on!
\nGlory! Glory! How he’ll Screw Ya!
\nGlory! Glory! What’s It To Ya!
\nGlory! Glory! How he’ll Screw Ya!
\nTHIS …. DOOOO …. FUSS …. MAR…CHES….ON!
