The Lyrics
Oh, some of you are going to LOVE this one!
Had a dream in the middle of electioning year:
We’d fin’lly gotten rid of the people we fear,
Putting to use our legal-bought guns!
Now you see no black folk.
The lib’rals are in prison or on the run.
Right-wing fantasy!
The cheering from the people of the land was ruckus!
Right-wing fantasy!
And ev’ry night, good ol’ boys will come around
And chug their liquor down.
Built up a wall along Rio Grande,
Shipped all the wetbacks back to their own land,
Sent all the Jews back to Israel,
Then we fought the A-rabs,
And now we own their oil, and the profits are swell!
Right-wing fantasy!
The freedom and the safety of our land is precious!
Right-wing fantasy!
And ev’ry night, good ol’ boys will come around
And burn some crosses down.
We stopped public schoolin’ for beyond sixth grade;
Who needs high-talkin’ style?
No more welfare for a gal in trouble,
And we haven’t paid tax for a while, oh no!
We haven’t paid tax for a while, oh no.
Had a dream in the middle of electioning year:
We’d fin’lly took apart social programs we’d feared.
Press loves all the President does!
He picks all our judges,
And Congress does his bidding without no fuss.
Right-wing fantasy!
Approval from the people of the land—no protests!
Right-wing fantasy!
And ev’ry night all the men come home from town,
And hold their women down.
Right-wing fantasy!
Our plans are always bless-ed by our God in heaven!
Right-wing fantasy!
And did you hear, the Big Earthquake came around,
Sank California down?
Right-wing fantasy…
(fade out)
We’d fin’lly gotten rid of the people we fear,

Right, er, write on! Abso-Newt-ly great concept and lexecution with nearly every conservative stereotype fascis-, er, fash-i*oned* into a funny...
That was clever, no matter what side you are on. 5's
A liberal AND a talented parody writer? I think I'm in love.
This was all right! 555
Sinking NorCAL would be crime . . for it is truly the gods' country, with all its beauty! Holding the down the women ? . . . well just take a look at FLDS !
555, very good.
LOL... nice
Right on!
Oh, Michael, I didn't know you cared! Everyone, thanks for the comments!
I'd be rather wrong than Right! :)
Another great political farce from an excellent satirist.... but Michael, you serious? First Andria/AFW, then EmiLoca/Matthias, now Melanie Lee and Pacholek?! 555
Never a big fan of political parodies... So don't have much to say about this one.
LOL Agri, loved the sarcasm in this one Mel, great job and awesome word play
(ABC5) I seem to remember reading this before...still, like Matthias said, I'm not one for political parodies (I don't know anything about politics, so I'm left out in the cold).
ABC5(QR) Nice job of political fun-poking!!!...555!!!

One walks a fine line when writing politico. You hit on some stuff that at first glance would seem to be racial, but when the whole thing fits together I see it as SNL funny. Excellent satire! What's ironic is that some of the things we see coming down the pike of late are not that far off of what this is saying, for instance, there is a movement that animals should have lawyers to represent them in court. I think half of Washington is on crack abd te other half is just cracked. FIne write!
