HOW LONG WILL VOTERS PUT UP WITH THIS CRAP?
(To tune of, Suicide is Painless,” by Johnny Mandel and Mike Altman, the theme song from the movie and T.V. series M*A*S*H)
The sentinels of righteous right
are dangerous and too uptight.
Obstructionism’s losing sight
of what should light this country’s light
Governing’s not tactics.
It takes us only backwards.
How long will voters put up with this crap?
The House defunds Obamacare.
A futile effort, they don’t care.
A world grown skeptical of where
Democracy’s now very weird.
Governing’s not tactics.
They’ve got the whole thing backwards.
How long will voters put up with this crap?
Reform for immigration sits
As yet another good man quits.
For wise men congress is the pits.
So, leave it to the worst nitwits.
Republicans say “trust us.”
No mercy but swift justice.
How long will voters put up with this crap?
