Well if you have seen the front page vid and/or the Diary by cgvjelly you might feel the need to pull out a washboard; and play a guitar chord, and do a little do it yourself.
So now I'm stuck with the jingle and jangle in my head but I updated the Lyrics.
Ballad of Bad, Bad John
Bad John
Bad John
Every mornning at the club, you could see him arrive.
He stood 5 foot 6, weighed 245.
Kind of broad at the belly, narrow at the hip.
And every caddie knew you didn't get no tip from Bad John.
Bad John
Bad John
Bad Bad John
Bad John
Nobody seemed to know where John called home
After six years in Washington under the dome.
He didn't do much, but he talked a lotta trash
And if you spoke at all it was after you paid cash to Big John
Somebody said he cared ‘bout New Orleans,
But he thought it got destroyed by ragin’ Queens.
And a crash and a blow from gods right hand,
sent poor Lousiana folks to the promise land.
Bad John
Bad John
Bad Bad John
Bad John
Then came the day at the bottom of the polls
when most Republicans sold their souls.
Lobbyists were praying, hearts beat fast
and everybody thought the gravy train had past
cept' John.
Through the dust and the smoke of this Republican hell,
walked a giant of a mark that lobbyists knew well.
Grabbed a bulgin’ wallet and gave out with a groan,
and called his Washington buddies up on the phone, Bad John
Bad John
Bad John
Bad Bad John
Bad John
And with all his influence, and a big money funnel.
The lobbyists yelled out, 'theres light in the tunnel!'.
But the voters scrambled from this 'would be' grave
now theres only money left there to save, Big John.
But all that cash couldn’t shut voters down,
then came that rumble way down in the ground.
You see if you start up countin’ one vote at a time,
everybody knows it’ll be the end of the line, for Bad John.
Bad John
Bad John
Bad Bad John
Bad John
Now they never re-elected that wortheless twit,
they just placed a sign where he used to sit.
These few words are written on that wood,
‘As a Senator he just wasn’t that good, Bad John'
Bad John
Bad John
Bad Bad John
Bad John
And if you are in SF bay Area don't forget, Rally at Noon Thursday at Moscone West Convention Center, 4th and Howard.
