The Lyrics
Written in 1999 - satire about the Republicans' obsession with impeaching Bill Clinton, above all else, which caused them to lose congressional seats in the 1998 elections
(instrumental intro)
Screwing up is all they can show
Losing battles, 'cause they don't know
They all live a fantasy
The G.O.P's found they're the villains that others see
Bad advice they gave everyone
Impeaching Bill Clinton has caused them to crash again
Their polls are down
And polls really matter to them
(This is what we found...)
Refrain:
They're out of touch
They're out of time
They were once ahead
But now they're losing ground...
They're out of touch
They're out of time
They were once ahead
But now they're losing ground...
Ohhh, no...
Ohhh, no
Hatched a plan that they thought was bold
Looking for some dirt from events decades old
Panic moves have dashed their dreams
They moved from the middle, far right to the extreme
Banning guns was too hot to touch
They'll go down if they help the NRA too much
Their polls are down
And polls really matter to them
Too much
They're out of touch
They're out of time
They were once ahead
But now they're losing ground...
They're out of touch
They're out of time
They were once ahead
But now they're losing ground...
(repeat refrain and fade out)
Screwing up is all they can show
Losing battles, 'cause they don't know
They all live a fantasy
The G.O.P's found they're the villains that others see
Bad advice they gave everyone
Impeaching Bill Clinton has caused them to crash again
Their polls are down
And polls really matter to them
(This is what we found...)
Refrain:
They're out of touch
They're out of time
They were once ahead
But now they're losing ground...
They're out of touch
They're out of time
They were once ahead
But now they're losing ground...
Ohhh, no...
Ohhh, no
Hatched a plan that they thought was bold
Looking for some dirt from events decades old
Panic moves have dashed their dreams
They moved from the middle, far right to the extreme
Banning guns was too hot to touch
They'll go down if they help the NRA too much
Their polls are down
And polls really matter to them
Too much
They're out of touch
They're out of time
They were once ahead
But now they're losing ground...
They're out of touch
They're out of time
They were once ahead
But now they're losing ground...
(repeat refrain and fade out)
