The Lyrics
This should is (or should be) hilarious if you are familiar with Ayn Rand. The first part is funny, but as it moves towards the end of the last stanza it is kind of a cheap shot at Ayn Rand than anything humorous.
Oh Missus Rand, your Atlas, Atlas' Shrugging
From Petersburg to west in N. Y. C.
The welfare's gone, and all the commies' dying
'Tis you who flush the socialists to sea
Your Foundtainhead is such an inspiration
To capital and angry architects
Who like to bomb their very own creation
Oh Missus Rand, oh Missus Rand, I love your sect
And Missus Rand, your Alan Greenspan's calling
From all the halls of power in D. C.
Who is John Galt who keeps the world a-moving?
Is he your friend a senior named Greenspan?
Your books preach that men shall have all the freedoms
And act and think so indepedently
Then how come you're like queen of your own kingdom
And rule your students with your solid iron fist?
From Petersburg to west in N. Y. C.
The welfare's gone, and all the commies' dying
'Tis you who flush the socialists to sea
Your Foundtainhead is such an inspiration
To capital and angry architects
Who like to bomb their very own creation
Oh Missus Rand, oh Missus Rand, I love your sect
And Missus Rand, your Alan Greenspan's calling
From all the halls of power in D. C.
Who is John Galt who keeps the world a-moving?
Is he your friend a senior named Greenspan?
Your books preach that men shall have all the freedoms
And act and think so indepedently
Then how come you're like queen of your own kingdom
And rule your students with your solid iron fist?

Don't think she rules her students any more, as she passed away 25 years ago... Much as I'm a Rand fan (see "I'll Always Be A Fan Of Rand" http://www.amiright.com/parody/60s/dionnewarwick20.shtml , she did have her personal quirks, so I'll Shrug off the cheap shots and 555 oz. of gold.
Was this at all inspired by the 50th anniversary next month of the publication of "Atlas Shrugged"?
