The Lyrics

I added a line to the two bridges. OS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHTN0sSXDEQ
It’s time for conventions!
There’s gonna be two, yeah!
It’s time for conventions!
For campaign ads and good slime!
It’s time for conventions!
Two conventions, two, yeah!

(war drums and hand claps)

First the Democratic Party, party,
Then Republicans will Party, party.
Donkeys, elephants will party, party!

Well, Barack wants a change, (‘ventions!)
Or you’ll stand with McCain. (‘ventions!)
We’ll hear from Hillary (‘ventions!)
And from Giuliani…ohhhh….

(background music, cheers, sound bytes)

We’ll hear speeches galore: (‘ventions!)
Maybe Gingrich and Gore. (‘ventions!)
Lift a song by The Doors. (‘ventions!)
Filming by Michael Moore…owww…!

It’s time for conventions
For the red, white, and blue, yeah!
It’s time for conventions,
For promises and sound bytes
And verbal inventions.
Two conventions, two, yeah!

(cheers fade out…)

Great timing on the release of this. Although as parties go, the party conventions are BORING.
