The Lyrics
I'm Back! The election is tomorrow, and from day 1 I was already sick and tired of the mudslinging, even though I can't vote yet; I'm 16. Here's to an ugly election. This is NOT my first Metallica parody, but it's the first GOOD one. One more thing, I don't know any candidates in your home state unless you're a PA resident like myself.
Make their fight on TV on Election Day
Voters waiting in line!
It ain't fun, Who's the one to reduce tax pay
Toomey fights for your rights, yes, but who's to say?
Capitol hill, caused a thrill. Why? I'll never know
Sestak's words tend to chide
At least five give advice on how they'll save us dough
Gone insane, their campaigns make me miss my shows!
For whom the votes poll
Tell me who won!
For whom the votes poll
Propaganda's malign, makes me want to die
Let them say what they will
Nasty flyer, cruel flyer, makes our junk mail rise
How 'bout use it for coasters for decaf chai?
Onorato and Tom Corbett's trickery
Soon it will be dumbed down
Here is to an election that turned ugly
But we're not off the hook, there's twenty-14!
For whom the votes poll
Tell me who won!
For whom the votes poll
Voters waiting in line!
It ain't fun, Who's the one to reduce tax pay
Toomey fights for your rights, yes, but who's to say?
Capitol hill, caused a thrill. Why? I'll never know
Sestak's words tend to chide
At least five give advice on how they'll save us dough
Gone insane, their campaigns make me miss my shows!
For whom the votes poll
Tell me who won!
For whom the votes poll
Propaganda's malign, makes me want to die
Let them say what they will
Nasty flyer, cruel flyer, makes our junk mail rise
How 'bout use it for coasters for decaf chai?
Onorato and Tom Corbett's trickery
Soon it will be dumbed down
Here is to an election that turned ugly
But we're not off the hook, there's twenty-14!
For whom the votes poll
Tell me who won!
For whom the votes poll

You go, girl! I'm happy to find a newbie with political interests -- right, center or left. Since you were less than a year old during the previous Republican landslide, your perspective might be limited now, but expandable by education (not in government schools). My musical perspective is narrow in the opposite way -- IDNKTOS, so I won't vote now; but I'll find it (& The Wall) and return.
Wow! once again, another political parody, wish I could think up some. Metallica is a favorite group of mine, and this parody is also great as well! :-) I can't wait for your Pink Floyd parody, I like him too! :-) 555! for this one however...
It's me again, and I still love this parody! and I hate to keep whining, but what else do children do a lot of when they want attention? :-( but once again my parodies have gone un V'd and/or C'd and I am starting to get worried that I am being forgotten here.
