Original Song Title:
"Battle Hymn of the Republic"
Parody Song Title:
"Battle Hymn of the Republicans"
The Lyrics
They’re lining up to run in twelve against the President;
They say that he deserves to go, a one term resident;
They’ll sweep away the Democrats and seize the government.
Republicans will rule!
Refrain:
They shall rule the House and Senate;
They'll elect the next President;
They are guided by one tenet;
To gut the government!
There’s Newt Gingrich, former Speaker, now a scholar of the past
His contract with America was bold but didn’t last.
His smarts and savvy may be by his ex-wives overcast,
But Newt goes marching on.
Refrain
Sarah Palin of Alaska is the favorite of the lot;
She is guided by her sense of truth, and facts bother her not.
The key is how she does when the campaign starts getting hot.
Ms Palin’s marching on.
Refrain
There’s Mitt Romney late of Utah, but he harks from Belmont, Mass.
He is favored by the party bigs, but may be out of gas.
He is smooth and safe but voters see an opportunist ass,
Yet Mitt keeps marching on
Refrain
Mike Huckabee of Arkansas, a preacher in his youth;
Makes claims and accusations that are often short on truth.
He will likely be abandoned by the voter in the booth.
Yet Mike keeps marching on.
Refrain
Ron Paul, who’s done this all before, is doomed to fail again;
America’s not ready for a Libertarian.
His time might best be spent doing his job as congressman.
But Paul keeps running on
Refrain
To win the nomination they will all run to the right;
Then they shift back to the middle for the presidential fight.
But can they overcome Obama’s billion dollar might:
It’s not a pretty sight.
