RNC Song

And this is a *great* song to practise for the RNC! It's sung to the tune of "My country tis of thee." I like how it breaks down in the 3rd verse and gives up on rhyming...

My City, 'tis of Thee,
Sweet Land of good coffee,
Of thee I sing;
Land of Al Sharpton’s hair,
Falafel and street fairs,
From every skyscraper
Give Bush the finger!

Home of the Mitzvah Tank
Porn shops and Mets and Yanks,
Thy name I love;
I love thy lesbians,
Diners and hot dog stands,
Stoop sales and punk rock bands,
Ashcroft fuck off.

Your politics are full of sleaze,
You’d cut down all the trees
Just for a buck;
Let New Yorkers awake;
Let all who care partake;
Let us our silence break,
Republicans, you suck.

New York is too smart for your
Hysterical fear mongerers,
Your war is bullshit.
There were no WMDs,
You just couldn’t cash in on peace,
Why couldn’t Scalia and Cheney be
Shot by those ducks!

My City, 'tis of Thee,
Sweet Land of good coffee,
Of thee I sing;
Land of Al Sharpton’s hair,
Falafel and street fairs,
From every skyscraper
Give Bush the finger!
