The Lyrics
Well this one seems too on the nose here. I've heard that Radiohead do have a pro-environmental stance, so this is quite the interesting twist on using one of their songs, which disrespects Miss Cortez's Green New Deal Initiative. Way too idealistic, not so much realistic. Sinatra_Says has made the major criticism of this Green New Deal by saying that the only way it can work is to "Print More Money." Now the parody has come full circle.
(Verse 1)
Hey there Miss Cortez, listen here
Deconstructing
You’re new message, we can’t use
Deconstructing, wealth abuse
Even though the science, is there
But you just forget, one nation
Oh why don’t you get a clue? (Build monorail system in US)
Why don’t you get a clue? (Give all lazy people guaranteed income, cause world climate affects us all)
Why don’t you get a clue? (Going to agrarian time, monorail system in US)
Why don’t you get a clue? (Were going to agrarian time, and place heavy tax burden on all)
Get a clue (With that done, services free)
(Verse 2)
Bring ideas from socialists and
You never leave from the radical left
It doesn’t agree with economists
Living with debt which continues to rise
All over the lazy land
We get government paying our sal,-ary
In the US so much noise+
In the US so much, paying our sal,-ary
In the US, in the US, in the US, in the US
(Verse 3)
Your bill doesn’t make sense, won’t get past Mike Pence* (get a clue)
Nor congress or oval, office
We’re gonna stop that G.N.D.** (why don’t you get a clue?)
We’re gonna stop that G.N.D. (why don’t you get a clue?)
Your bill doesn’t make sense, won’t get past Mike Pence* (why don’t you get a clue?)
Won’t get past Mike Pence, so what
We’re gonna stop that G.N.D.
Stop that G.N.D.
Your bill doesn’t make sense
Hey there Miss Cortez, listen here
Deconstructing
You’re new message, we can’t use
Deconstructing, wealth abuse
Even though the science, is there
But you just forget, one nation
Oh why don’t you get a clue? (Build monorail system in US)
Why don’t you get a clue? (Give all lazy people guaranteed income, cause world climate affects us all)
Why don’t you get a clue? (Going to agrarian time, monorail system in US)
Why don’t you get a clue? (Were going to agrarian time, and place heavy tax burden on all)
Get a clue (With that done, services free)
(Verse 2)
Bring ideas from socialists and
You never leave from the radical left
It doesn’t agree with economists
Living with debt which continues to rise
All over the lazy land
We get government paying our sal,-ary
In the US so much noise+
In the US so much, paying our sal,-ary
In the US, in the US, in the US, in the US
(Verse 3)
Your bill doesn’t make sense, won’t get past Mike Pence* (get a clue)
Nor congress or oval, office

We’re gonna stop that G.N.D. (why don’t you get a clue?)
Your bill doesn’t make sense, won’t get past Mike Pence* (why don’t you get a clue?)
Won’t get past Mike Pence, so what
We’re gonna stop that G.N.D.
Stop that G.N.D.
Your bill doesn’t make sense
+ = Either construction from retrofitting every building in America to be environmentally friendly, or mass protests in every state, take your pick. * = Could not use Senate for rhyming reasons, but VP is in charge of the Senate. ** = Green New Deal. Btw, speaking of new ideas for federal spending initiatives, I noticed that US debt will hit $22 Trillion soon. Well, there just happens to be a petition on change.org about removing $1 Trillion from the problem. It may be extreme but it does involve making the state of Montana into a Canadian province. Is it worth it? Leave a comment unless there is a forum discussion on in the 00's about it. I may be making a parody on this in the future.

If I only knew about her gripes with Amazon making an HQ in New York, probably could have sneaked a line there.
There's always next time.
Facts, logic, reasoning, and making sense are all social constructs of patriarchal oppression; can't allow any of that misogynistic crap in my bills!
@AOC, you go girl!! No really, just go back to New York. DC is not your scene. In fact, why don't you go to Montana. It might be a Canadian province soon and it's never too early to defect.
The tea party thought they would take over. Now the new kid Dem's think they are in charge.
Well this was rather nice that the Green New Deal was unanimously shut down by the Senate 57-0. You got rekted AOC.
two things. 1. AOC wasn't the sole author. 2. The New Green Deal was not a bill, it was simply a resolution to acknowledge that there is such a thing called "climate change" and that something should be done about it. Too bad the Senators didn't get that message.
The only way those senators will get the message is if an "unnatural" disaster happens in their personal residence (not their constituents). I say unnatural b/c of how different from normal weather patterns that those senators are used to. What is monsoon season in the US? Btw, can't wait for the Mike Lee parody with those props (i'm not touching it).
^^Mike Lee got me so nonplussed, I am thisclose to opening a Twitter account just so I can tweet to him how much of an idiot and embarrassment to the title of Senator that he is.
(As Darth Sidius) Good Ag. Use that anger, take that Utah senator down a peg. Make the song and spam his inbox as a weapon. Might I suggest "It's only Politics (And I hate it)" by the Rolling Stones.
