The Lyrics
I see a mad-loon risin’,
I see bubble-headed fray,
I see dearth-brains that’ fright’nin’,
I see reason’s decay.
Don’t come out tonight
’cause these clowns might be in sight.
There’s a mad-loon mob on rise.
I hear slurried brains air-blowin’;
They “know” the end is comin’ soon.
It’s clear that little they’re knowin’;
They scream—voices of ragin’ goons.
Don’t come out tonight
’cause these louts might be in sight.
There’s a mad-loon mob on rise.
[chorus of mindless baying]
“Hope you got your wills together—
Old gram should be prepared; to die.
Looks like we’re in for Nazi tether;
This guy is Hitler, that’s no lie!”
Don’t come out tonight;
These hellhounds might be in sight.
There’s a mad-loon mob on rise.
Don’t come out tonight
’cause these boundless frights are rife.
There’s a mad-loon mob on rise.
I see bubble-headed fray,
I see dearth-brains that’ fright’nin’,
I see reason’s decay.
Don’t come out tonight
’cause these clowns might be in sight.
There’s a mad-loon mob on rise.
I hear slurried brains air-blowin’;
They “know” the end is comin’ soon.
It’s clear that little they’re knowin’;
They scream—voices of ragin’ goons.
Don’t come out tonight
’cause these louts might be in sight.
There’s a mad-loon mob on rise.
[chorus of mindless baying]
“Hope you got your wills together—
Old gram should be prepared; to die.
Looks like we’re in for Nazi tether;
This guy is Hitler, that’s no lie!”
Don’t come out tonight;
These hellhounds might be in sight.
There’s a mad-loon mob on rise.
Don’t come out tonight
’cause these boundless frights are rife.
There’s a mad-loon mob on rise.

There was a long piece on this on television here the other day, kinda hard to understand from our side of the pond how stuff like "listen to your parents, do your homework, take responsibility for building your own future" can be branded as socialism - sounds to me like something Ronald Reagan could have said when he was on a roll.
Beware of those mad-loons! Great job as always, John! It's a jungle out there! 5's!
Who is it that's been voting 5-1-1 on all these political parodies? Michael P.'s parody about Joe Wilson got a 5-1-1 voter, as did my own Joe Wilson parody: http://www.amiright.com/parody/60s/simongarfunkel115.shtml.
It's kind of strange. I myself gave you a 5-5-5.
Stonemason - perhaps some juvenile prankster is seeking to keep us all wondering. I don't give ones (I wrote a song on the subject) and some *sshole "one bombed" me!
Sir, I won't be out tomight . . . tho Friday it be, SirSweaty ! Got to 'hit the hay' early to ship out tomorrow morn . . . for wide open spaces ! ! ~Tally-Ho, CaptainJack, ~Le Duke au Bray et Nay ~
Sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you are... ;D
555 you mad loon you!
Rad 'Loon' parsin'!
I absolutely love the call of a loon. Ever heard it? :-D I've often wonder if that's were loony comes from, althought it could be from lunatic as well. Anyway, anything with a loon in it just cracks me up and this is no exception. Great adaptation of a cool song. 555
A real Looney tune. 555
Nice write on this one Jon. Always like to see a CCR write.
