The Lyrics
In Vietnam, that's where we came to know him,
The Viet Cong were growin' strong,
And in the Spring, and throughout most of summer
War hero Kerry banged his gong
War--talk of War--how he served--how he saved--saved his troops--
John Kerry Lines(bop-bop-ba)
Sound bites never seemed so good
And Terry Heinz(bop bop ba)
His wife says what's on her mind but now I...
Look at the polls, the race can't be much closer
Too bad the choice is just these two,
It makes me hurt, hurt that we have to shoulder
Four more with Ker or Dubya
Hands--show me hands--reach 'em out--tell me how--you're tired of:
John Kerry Lines(bop-bop-ba)
Sound bites never seemed so good
And Terry Heinz(bop bop ba)
His wife says what's on her mind (too often)...
The Viet Cong were growin' strong,
And in the Spring, and throughout most of summer
War hero Kerry banged his gong
War--talk of War--how he served--how he saved--saved his troops--
John Kerry Lines(bop-bop-ba)
Sound bites never seemed so good
And Terry Heinz(bop bop ba)
His wife says what's on her mind but now I...
Look at the polls, the race can't be much closer
Too bad the choice is just these two,
It makes me hurt, hurt that we have to shoulder
Four more with Ker or Dubya
Hands--show me hands--reach 'em out--tell me how--you're tired of:
John Kerry Lines(bop-bop-ba)
Sound bites never seemed so good
And Terry Heinz(bop bop ba)
His wife says what's on her mind (too often)...
