Another of my occasionally inspired song parodies. This John Prine classic had been rolling around in my head the past couple of days as a likely candidate. It all started with the line, "Signed .... Teabagger."
I hope you like. I need to go run some errands, but this isn't exactly the kind of diary that demands I stay and defend my thesis.
Dear Abby
Dear Abby, Dear Abby I feel so distraught,
The Socialist Facists, our White House they've bought.
So me and my friends have all answered the call,
To make sure we don't get no Sharia law.
Signed, Teabagger.
Teabagger, Teabagger, you show no restraint,
You are just an R and you carry their taint.
So listen up Buster and listen up good,
Keep wishing for bad luck and knocking on wood.
Signed, Dear Abby
Dear Abby, Dear Abby I'm at my wits end,
This Kenyan usurper has caused me to send,
My minions to all the four corners of Earth
To track down his true Live Certificate of Birth.
Signed, Sweet Orly.
Sweet Orly, Sweet Orly, you show no restraint,
You are just an R and you carry their taint.
So listen up Buster and listen up good,
Keep wishing for bad luck and knocking on wood.
Signed, Dear Abby
Dear Abby, Dear Abby I just have to grouse,
In August it looked like we'd take back the House,
But teabagger crazies make us all look like flakes,
I wonder if it's too late to take back the drapes.
Signed, John Boehner.
John Boehner, John Boehner, you show no restraint,
You are just an R and you carry their taint.
So listen up Buster and listen up good,
Keep wishing for bad luck and knocking on wood.
Signed, Dear Abby
