THE REPUBLICAN MOTTO
by Doug Long
We pledge allegiance to the rich.
We signed that pledge, so we can't switch.
So you will have to just make do.
I've got mine, the hell with you!
In the GOP, it's "ME, ME, ME!"
And YOU can pay for the land of the free,
While we cut rich folks' taxes, too.
I've got mine, the hell with you!
When it comes to children's health,
They'll be fine - if they have wealth.
For God is greed – we think that’s true.
I've got mine, the hell with you!
OK for me but not for thee
Is our brand of hypocrisy.
So no matter who we screw -
I've got mine, the hell with you.
We blew Clinton's surplus money
And we thought that it was funny.
Now you make cuts till you turn blue.
Because --
I'VE GOT MINE, THE HELL WITH YOU!
