Please help me with this anti-Bush song

I'm trying to write a humorous anti-Bush campaign song. Here's what I've got so far. I'm not satisfied with the word choices or the scansion.


George, George,
George of the Bungle
Screwing you and me
Bomb it to debris!
Bomb it to debris!

George, George,
George of the Bungle
Ruling by decree
Bomb it to debris!
Bomb it to debris!

When things get thick
He wiggles out slick
With the help of his friend,
A dick named Dick!

Then he'll lie some more
And start a war
While Colin and Condoleeza
Play the whore!

George, George,
George of the Bungle
Screwing you and me!
Bomb it to debris!
Bomb it to debris!


Can anyone help me improve it? Or come up with a different one?

Cute use of "George of The Jungle." I wouldn't touch a thing.. except drop the "while" in the Colin and Condoleeza line.

Howsabout some funk? Curtis Mayfield, anyone?.

"I'm Your Bush-er, Man."

I'm your daddy, not your mama,
Did not serve in Vietnam-a!
In the Texas Air Guard,
Ducked my physical, wasn't hard.
Had to do it -- I was high!
Need no plane to kiss the sky!
I'm your Bush-er, Man!
I'm your Bush-er, Man!

Good one!

Come on guys! Do it for the cause! In an election this close, a good song might just make the difference!

(If you want to post a pro-Bush or anti-Kerry song, start your own thread. Or better still, commit suicide.)

I'd keep the "while" and shorten her name to Condi.

I'm with Mr2001 on that.

Also,I'd change 'wiggles out slick,' to 'slides out slick.'That reminds me of a slug,as does GWB. And I'd change 'a dick named dick,'to 'a prick named dick.'Two dicks in one short line is one too many.

Oooo,I feel like a naughty editor.

We've known for at least a year know that this was gonna be the nastiest, bitterest presidential election cycle since 1972, jsgoddess. There's nothing to be done about that. And I, for one, choose to just get down and wallow in it!

Just more evidence of how desperate the Kerry people are - we'll create a song and try to get the people who support the other side to off themselves - yeah!!

I start a lot of threads in GD. And I didn't post this one there (or in the Pit) because a song is what I'm looking for. Is there anything in my OP or any subsequent post that could be read as posing a question for debate? I want funny campaign songs! Against Bush! Why don't you start your own thread and see if anybody can write a good anti-Kerry song? I promise to look into that thread, and I promise not to crap in it. (Much. )

The tune should definitely be the Horst Wessel song...it's a double-entendre since you'd be simulataneously calling Bush a Nazi while also using Goebbel-esque propoganda as the Nazis did by spreading the "big lie."

(to the tune of "Start Me Up")

Well, he wrote a song
RikWriter did, don't think it took too long
But it doesn't rhyme
Ain't got no tune, it's just a waste of time
He oughta fix it up
Or start another thread where he can whine
He's all bent outta shape
Because his candidate's a bungler, bungler, bungler, bungler...

I wasn't comparing Bush with Hitler in my lyrics, Rik. You thought up that one yourself. And at this stage in history, it is extremely reckless for any Bush-backer to be bringing up the idea of the "big lie"!

No, not really, since we're aware who's using the Big Lie.

No, I think you're in a completely different book...most likely one by Mickey Moore.

Sorry, gang, but just because it rhymes doesn't mean it belongs in Cafe Society. I'm moving it to the Pit.

And, Brainglutton, off-hand remarks about death or suicide are NOT acceptable.

Mickey Moore was a good friend of mine in high school. Startling to see him mentioned in a thread this way. And to find a page of his on the web to boot. So that's what he's doing now!

There's also this Mickey Moore. Not the same guy.

I can't see how either of those -- the nonlinear dynamics physicist Mickey Moore or the child actor Mickey Moore -- could written a book relevant to . . .

Oh, I get it! He meant Michael Moore!

Come on, let's have some more lyricizing! Just because we've been thrown out of CS doesn't mean we can't have some poetic/musical fun with this!

See, when the Bush Administration uses innuendo, deception, and half-truths to sell almost every single one of their policies and to get the public to make connections that don't exist (like Saddam and Al Qaeda, Saddam and 9/11), that's a good thing.

But, when Michael Moore plays Bush's game in a film by putting a bunch of true facts together that might admittedly lead people to make connections that may not exist, that is the moral equivalent of Naziism.

It all makes perfect sense once you think about it, Brain Glutton.

I was going to use the music for Crazy Train by Ozzie Osbourne. But then, on reading the lyrics, I realized we don't need to change a single letter. (No, I'm not quoting the entire thing. Just one verse.)

"I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role"


Either that, or to the tune of "Kyle's Mom is a Big Fat Bitch" from South Park: Uncut.

Weeeeeeeelllllllll.......
G.W.'s got a little dick,
it's the littlest dick in this whole world!
To get over the fact that he's got a little dick
he bombs the shit out of the third world


That's all I've got so far. Needs work.

George Harrison 1987, I got my mind set on you. To be honest, I used the lyrics from Weird Al's This Song is Just Six Words Long. the second stanza is almost verbatim.

George Bush is a lying fool
George Bush is a lying fool
George Bush is a lying fool
George Bush is a lying fool

Couldn't get up of his seat
No he just stayed in his seat
He shoulda got out of his seat
Stead of reading to that child

You really need words
Whole lotta english words
You gotta have so many words, mm-mm
To do it, to do it, to do it, to do it
To do it, to do it right, child

George Bush is a lying fool
George Bush is a lying fool
George Bush is a lying fool
George Bush is a lying fool

He started a useless war
And he didn't even know for sure
If the danger was really real
Or how the world would feel

George Bush is a lying fool (lying fool)
George Bush is a lying fool (lying fool)

Cuttin taxes for the Wealthy
A whole lot for the Wealthy
If your not one of the wealthy
Then just sing this song, child

He's got a small mind
A realy tiny mind
What can we do with his mind
We'll throw it , throw it ,throw it
throw it , throw it Awaaaaaay

George Bush is a lying fool
George Bush is a lying fool
George Bush is a lying fool
George Bush is a lying fool













Consider it a challenge if you dare!

More Elvis

Fools rush in, where angels fear to tread
And so Bush ran into Iraq
How many thousands dead?
Could not see the quagmire there
If re-election's won
Then he don't care, oh-oh-oh-oh

Fools rush in, where wise men never go
But when you listen to Karl Rove
Who cares what the world knows?
Iran is next? Then let the draft begin!
We'll spiral up the spin and let
Our troops rush in

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wise men say only fools rush in
But Bush can’t help falling for neocon spin
Shall we stay
In a war we can't win?
While Bush tramples truth till every vote is in.

Like a river flows surely to the sea
Blood flows in Iraq
Civil war? Or theocracy?
Take their oil! Take a thousand lives too
Of U.S. troops -- how many more in queue?

There's a song in here somewhere, help me out guys...


On the first part of the journey
We were looking for WMDs
There were inspectors and Blix and students and spies
There were UN reports and lies

The first thing we found was a man with a beard
He'd been mean to my dad
We said that he'd helped out the al-Qaeda guys
So we'd be able to bomb Baghdad

Oh, I've been through the desert on a war with no aim
It felt good to get rid of Hussein
In the desert, can't find no WMDs
Cuz there weren't none there in the first place, you see

La la la la la la la la...

Well, I'd need a tune. But something like...

Tell the GOP
Our children want to breathe
Go tell the RNC
Our children want to breathe

Fight a war that is worth fighting
Lay down your bombs & guns, my son
Use the arms that God did give you
Use your hands & learn to be a man

We need architects, you give us soldiers
We need honesty, you give us liars
We need love, you give us arrogance
We look for conservatives, you give us embezzlers & thieves


somethin' somethin'. I may come back to that.
