(to Billy Joel’s “Piano Man”)
So I ran into some issues with the PC last night that involved myself and Gaurav of India getting to know each other to the point where I think he and I could have had each other’s back in a bar fight and I was forced to fire up the old dude (backups – gotta have backups) in order to put this together, especially as all my apps and other assorted things are gone now as part of an almost complete reset of the new PC. Thankfully it didn’t include my files as part of said reset, though that was something of a roll of the dice at the time as to whether that would be the case. Seems my Windows had pretty much shit the bed and forced Gaurav and I to grab some broken beer bottles back to back and go on faith that I wouldn’t lose everything.
About 4 hours later …
And all I wanted to do was to just get home and hang with my furry girls over a beer or two or three, watch my Buccos get their asses handed to them by the Reds again and work on this. So much for an anticipated Friday.
But Ol’ PC guy came through and I built. Thanks old friend.
It’s Doomsday clock on an everyday
GOP wear a watch
They check their wrists – for the end of us
Great experiment to now call a loss
—
They say It’s time has passed can ya follow me
It won’t really be all that hard
There’s a new road to take while the truth we will fake
A dead dream just not in the cards
—
Oh La-la-la de-de da
La-la de-de da la-la
—
Sing us a song Neo Fascist man
Sing us a song of lies
Rewrite for us a seen history
Till no longer believe our own eyes
—
Now the GOP practice a longer game
State and by state they block votes
Or they gerrymander – so to stay in command
As they can’t win with votes honest’s go
They say integrity’s at stake in our system here
Must restore voter confidence
And they’ll disenfranchise with no color the prize
And all because of the Big Lie
—
Oh La-la-la de-de da
La-la de-de da la-la
—
Now McCarthy holds true his great leader
Kool Aid drunk while supporting the cries
Of an unhinged one, carny barker and some
Whose show now attracts nothing but flies
—
And McConnell says partisan politics
Are the only game Dems wanna play
While hypocrisy drips from his marble mouth
Lockstep lemmings minority sway
—
Break
—
Sing us a wrong Neo Fascist man
Sing us a song of lies
Rewrite for us a known history
Till we no longer hear as it cries
—
GOP gambles Dem dreamers
Whose justifies are like some swiss cheese
Manchin and Kyrsten to any who’ll listen
Are standing just notice them please
—
They’re determined to center attention
Nonsensical their fantasy fight
To preserve the one thing that is killing the dream
Of every last of us be deemed
—
Oh La-la-la de-de da
La-la de-de da la-la
—
Do us all wrong Neo Fascist men
Break with democracy’s ties
Cause we’re all in the mood for autocracy
Till we no longer hear our own cries
