We’re Deadly Serious

Ed and I have had enough of the Fleebaggers.

Last Saturday, we took the entire catalog of Western popular music hostage – and we promised to kill a different song every week until the Fleebaggers returned to Madison, and stopped holding Democracy itself hostage.

And we meant it.

A week ago, we assaulted Tom Petty’s legacy with “Fleebaggin”.

Last Saturday, it was “Dems On The Run”, making John Lennon roll over in his grave out of sympathy for Macca.

And this Saturday?

“Lawyers, Cheese and Bratwurst”.

  1. You could pretty much use that entire album for the Fleebaggers:

    Miller the Clueless Fleebag Runner
    Jesse Strikes Up the Band
    Werewolves of Rockford

    Lotsa material.

  2. Hmmm. I’m thinking…

    “I’m got in bed with the unions,
    the way I always do.
    How was I to know,
    They think like Russians, too?

    Send lawyers, soap and CNN…”

  3. Mr. D – don’t forget “Excitable Boys”!

    (Oh, and the first line of my lyric parody should have been “I got in bed with the unions…”)

  4. Watching the mob take-over of the capitol also suggests a line from another Zevon song:

    “I was in the house when the house burned down.”

  5. Don’t you be blasphemin’ Zevon in here! Although Accidentally A Senator might work. “Don’t want to work, and the part gets harder.”

  6. I met him in a Illinois hideout on a Monday and my heart stood still
    Da do run-run-run, da do run-run
    Somebody told me that his name was Senator Miller
    Da doo run-run-run, da do run-run……………?

  7. Well, I went home with the union
    The way I always do
    How was I to know
    They was with the thuggers, too

    I was gambling in Madison
    I took a little risk
    They sent pizzas, signs and moonbats
    WEAC, get me out of this

    I’m the dimwit lefty slacker
    Somehow I got stuck
    Between the unions and their power
    And I’m down on my luck

    Now I’m hiding out in Rockford
    I’m a desperate Democrat
    Send cleansocks, brats and OldMil
    The batshit has hit the fan

  8. Listening to an all-day time share pitch would be more enjoyable

    I’ll have my friend Chet call you.
