The Lyrics

For some odd reason, since my last name is Zimmerman, re-doing Bob Dylan songs only seem natural for me. Of course, I didn't become a whiny leftist like him. I mean with all these left wing songs of the sixties, it's hard to believe that people could come out of that generation as conservatives. The potheads of that era are still on this board showing us how stupid they are with every "conservative" bashing parody they create!
Come gather conservatives wherever we rome,
who see that the government around here has grown
And admit that this debt will never be owed…
If it’s change you want, then keep saving
But you better start thinking before you sell out your soul
For America here is a-changin’

Those liberals and peaceniks who can’t count up to ten,
Their minds are in a daze with no time to amend
They don’t have a clue and their brain cells are dead
Their 60’s ideas are now plaguing,
For the losers then are now skating to win
And America here is a-changin’

You Democrats and Republicans look beyond this call,
And see that America is shrinking to small
Those democrats are jerks,
And you Repubs don’t fall
There’s a movement inside ragin’
The revolts are coming where the grassroots are home
For America here is a-changin’

Come CEOs, capitalists who operate this land,
Your wealth’s being distributed by Barack’s own left hand
The bills that he signs, the legislation that is passed
Our roots are rapidly fading,
Would Washington think tyranny has seized our command?
For America here is a-changing’

The time it has come, the protest is vast
full speed ahead and stick it to’em fast
And the taxpayer now won’t run out gas
I see that this country is aging
I pray the direction won’t cause us to crash
For America here is a-changin’

"The protest is vast"? Yeah, it was 2 million strong on Inauguration Day. When you bums had your "Tea Party," how many did you get outside the White House, 2,000? You got 400 people in Philadelphia. I've seen more people in that city online at Pat's Steaks! Your Republican Party should apply for affirmative action. You know why? Because you are now a despised minority! And you earned it. Actually, the ones we should be worried about are the kids of the hippies. Some of them rebelled against their parents and became conservatives. And the aging hippies don't know why. Well, THEIR parents said, "Don't take drugs, your kids will be mutants!" Looks like Grandma and Grandpa were right about that!

"wherever we 'rome'." Are you suggesting that the Vatican in somehow in league with reactionaries?! Wait a minute...it is!

Mike, I thought when Bush was in office you hated fascists? Now it's okay to have "complete control" within a three political branch system? Besides "limited" government wins out over a Hitler's paradise! You know, I don't understand why the left hates him. If he didn't turn on the reds, they would love him too! :) Tell me again who are the true "fascists"?
