The Lyrics
At first we were afraid
We were petrified
Kept thinking how could someone vote for such an evil guy
And then we spent so many nights
Thinking how did it go wrong
'Cause all along, we were inclusive, proud and strong
The guy is whacked
Such a disgrace
He wants to judge you by your gender or the color of your face
They should have known it's all a crock
They should have seen the things we see
They should have known for just one second he has got no policy
We say no!
Yes we abhore
We won't calm down now
'Cause we're opposed to what you're for
We arent the ones who'll let you hurt us with your lies
Even though we stumbled
Don't you think we'll lay down and die
Although you lie
We will survive
Oh we'll stand up to your bigotry for those that you deprive
Of your hatred - can't forgive
'Cause for us we'll fight to live
And we'll survive
We will survive
Hey Hey
And now we're fighting so this place wont' be torn apart
By all the cronies, thugs, and racists with an evil heart
We won't spent oh so many nights just feeling sorry for ourselves
No time to cry
It's time to hold our heads up high
We'll let him see
This fight's not through
We're not that stupid little person getting conned by you
And just because we didn't win it doesn't mean we'll take a knee
We'll don't look now because we're coming and we'll fight mysogony
We say no!
Yes we abhore
We won't calm down now
'Cause we're opposed to what you're for
We arent the ones who'll let you hurt us with your lies
Even though we stumbled
Don't you think we'll lay down and die
Although you lie
We will survive
Oh we'll stand up to your bigotry for those that you deprive
Of your hatred - can't forgive
'Cause for us we'll fight to live
And we'll survive
We will survive
Oh...Oh
We say no!
Yes we abhore
We won't calm down now
'Cause we're opposed to what you're for
We arent the ones who'll let you hurt us with your lies
Even though we stumbled
Don't you think we'll lay down and die
Although you lie
We will survive
Oh we'll stand up to your bigotry for those that you deprive
Of your hatred - can't forgive
'Cause for us we'll fight to live
And we'll survive
We will survive
We will survive!

How Offensive! 11111's
A tour de force. Well done.
For you closed minded folks who gave 1s for pacing I suggest you go back for more electroshock. I understand if you don't think it's funny but as the pacing and rhyme scheme are perfect it only means your 1s don't mean dick, except to point out your ignorance. Go back to watching Duck dynasty to get your news.... and in the words of the French guards ... I fart in your general direction!
Excellent pacing and word selection. This is the kind of well-constructed and thought-out parody we need more of. I'm still not sure what Trump is going to do to gays and blacks and women or whoever that has got them in such an uproar. Maybe I should post one of those bogus Facebook stories claiming that Trump is going to issue an executive order reauthorizing chattel slavery, or taking the vote away from women. He'll send drones to bomb abortion clinics, and US Marshals will raid the Stonewall Inn to arrest everyone there for sodomy. Amtrak will dig all those coal-burning locomotives out the the railroad museums and run them up and down the Northeast Corridor. I think I'll apply for a license to hunt bison with a full-auto rifle in Yellowstone Park. Just have to decide whether I'll get my gunsmith to make the stock out of California Redwood or Bristlecone Pine. With genuine elephant ivory inlays, of course.
This was good 5's
Personally I feel it's not funny, definitely miss informed, and close minded. Some of the words throughs off pacing a lot, and didn't fit without changes to the pacing or pronunciation of the words. Same with rhythm scheme, needs work, but had promise. Would not call it perfect by a long shot. And the writer can not take reviews with out lashing out. I would have given it a higher score for shire effort if it was not that. Nice try though.
