Voter’s Poll

LYRIC (political parody to the melody of Shel Silverstein’s “Freakin’ at the Freaker’s Ball“):

Well… we’re goin’ to a voters’ poll… today… it’s your civic toll. And you know… we’ll be counted… on the roll.

C’mon babies… scream and shout… we got the revolutionary clout… we’re gonna throw the bastards out… we’re goin’ to the voters’ poll.

Blow your whistle… bang a gong… take a breath… and sing along… it feels so good… it can’t be wrong… votin’ at the voters’ poll

All the heads and the reds… are standin’ in together… the scooter trash dressed in all kinds of leather… the greatest of the queens and the bible-thumpers too… screamin’ please bless me… and I’ll bless you.

Grungarati… adrenaline junkies… all the straights… are swingin’ with the funkies. Cross the floor… up the wall… votin’ at the voters’ poll… yo… votin’ at the voters’ poll!

Everybody’s bumpin’ each other… patriarchs and single mothers… smear my biscuits up with butter
And take me to the voters’ poll.

Pass that ballot … ring the chimes… you boot yours … i’ll boot mine… i’m gonna straighten up my spine… votin’ at the voters’ poll.

White ones… black ones… Jose and Yang ones. Green and blue and native red ones… the greatest of the dykes and the bible-thumpers too… screamin’ please bless me… and I’ll bless you!

Everybody’s holdin’ their opinions… flooding polling stations by the millions…we’re gonna clear the air that’s stinkin’… votin’ at the voters’ poll… yo… votin’ at the voters’ poll… na na na naaaa… votin’ at the voters’ poll!

It’s been a lousy week for particular members of the Cracka Squad.

Though one could argue The Donald only panders, he seems clearly resolute in his commitment to said pandering. Unfortunately, Mr. Trump is one or two steps from admitting his campaign is out of money (of all things). Maybe some fundraising lessons from televangelists?

One could argue Rush Limbaugh merely panders as well, but no one doubts he speaks the language, and how. Unfortunately, a live-by-the-sword karmaloop is bearing down on the talent-on-loan-from-god Ditto King for another turn of the screw.

James Dobson (a bonafide political operative if one ever existed) is one Cracka Fatwa removed from having transgender bathroom interlopers executed by “real men.”

??????? W-T-actual-F ???????

“If you are a dad, I pray you will protect your little girls from men who walk in unannounced, unzip their pants and urinate in front of them,” he said. “If this had happened 100 years ago, someone might have been shot. Where is today’s manhood? God help us!”

Some say it’s a sign of times, but it doesn’t have to be this way. At least not in our little slice of heaven (the good ‘ol U.S.ofA). Seriously… the secular “Nones” are a fast growing religious non-affiliation, and Millennials now officially outnumber the primary perpetrators of the loathsome culture war… Baby Boomers (“baby” being the operant word). Please, people!?! These crackas only have as much power and influence as we allow. Please, with your feet, your wallet, and your ballot, please… please… VOTE!
