The Lyrics

What a drag it is getting dull.

"It's so different today,"
I hear every rightist say,
"That the liberals are ruining the land."
But upon the window sill
Is a little bluish pill,
So go running for the shelter
Of a Rush's Little Helper.
And it helps him on the way
Through his busy busy day.

"Things are different today,"
I hear every bigot say,
"And reverse racism's taking all our jobs.
We need Bush to set things right,
And put dissidents to flight—"
And go running for the shelter
Of a Rush's Little Helper.
And it helps him on the way
Through his busy bigot day.

My maid, please,
Some more of these.
Outside the door,
He'd wait for more.
What a drag it is getting dull.

"It's so different today,"
I hear Mr. Limbaugh say,
"And a quarterback who's black can't be no good."
But if you take more of those,
You'll be fired and exposed—
No more running for the shelter
Of a Rush's Little Helper
And it helped him on the way
To his busy firing day.

I think you missed a verse, but hit the mark.

I like the parody and if it is true then Rush deserves what he gets. I 'll have to save my opinions for whenever the investigation concludes. Everyone deserves a fair shot until the facts are known, but it sure looks like his racist comments could be the result of some substance abuse influence. We shall see.

This was a good idea and well executed. I don't really agree with some of it (you misportray the QB comment, for example) and I don't really care if he's an addict; though given his stance on the drug war it would be pretty funny if he were put away somehow. Anyway, well done.

If a person disagrees with you The next logical assumption is not to assume he is a bigot. Most of the opinions are taken out of context.

I don't think everyone who disagrees with me is a bigot--but some are. And yes, possibly some people who agree with me are bigots, too!
