THIS?

By Bruce Wales,
Vice Chairman, Gila County Libertarian Party

(Sung to a tune similar to HOTEL CALIFORNIA)

Yesterday’s coffee is tomorrow’s speed.

Medicine’s cure, by the way, makes you bleed Running for office is powered by greed Fueled by PACs’ needy children to feed

Paint on her face is just dirt on his jeans Newspaper editors never come clean Harvesting corn must be done by machine Toxified meat, really Won’t keep you lean!

CHORUS

This is our country – turned into this?
You think our Fathers
Are proud to sire this?

Is all the suffering worth all the bliss?
I doubt the Founders
Were trying to find this

Free enterprise is so costly, you see
Since bottom lines are above you and me
So? make more laws to keep us more free
Betray humanity, but humane-ly

Occupy countries and claim it’s defense
Blame disagree-ers, label them dense
Unpatriotic, so they must be cleansed, but Can’t make good neighbors by building good fence

CHORUS

This is our country – turned into this?
You think our Fathers
Are proud to sire this

Is all the suffering worth all the bliss?
I doubt the Founders
Were trying to find this

BRIDGE

Restricting liberties
Gives more release?
Declaring war somehow
Builds better peace?

INSTRUMENTAL

Oh, those genteel who were thought to be brave Now it’s the common who won’t need to shave Never will sweat from the cradle to grave Live off the welfare of others who slave

CHORUS

This is our country – turned into this?
You think our Fathers
Are proud to sire this?

Is all the suffering worth all the bliss?
I doubt the Founders
We’re trying to find this

I doubt the Founders
Would ever found this!
