The Lyrics
for all those people who theink the "cheap" wonderful stuff from CHINA helps the american economy, think again. buy NORTH AMERICAN MADE before all our factories and textile industries shut down. when they're gone, we're all in for it
lookin for deals, scanned for forty days,
this "made in China" makes me enraged
wee chong chongli makin this rack
it's poor and flimsy, that's an actual fact
here, amiright, let our voices ring,
I got to tell, you, about this thing
Taiwan products, just ain't right
cause soon our unemployment reaches new record heights..
wear an american brand
wear an american brand,
support your local town,
keep local poverty down
wear an american brand
tool and die man in omaha
waitin for an order, his lathe set to go
it ain't good it ain't right, laid off on Saturday night
the labour for slaves there, is way outta sight
now, here fine people, I have a plan
keep people working in the american land
I say come on dudes, we can conrtol
just buy it local, our economy rolls.......
wear an american brand
wear an american brand,
support your local town,
keep local poverty down
wear an american brand
wear an american brand
wear an american brand,
support your local town,
keep local poverty down
wear an american brand
this "made in China" makes me enraged
wee chong chongli makin this rack
it's poor and flimsy, that's an actual fact
here, amiright, let our voices ring,
I got to tell, you, about this thing
Taiwan products, just ain't right
cause soon our unemployment reaches new record heights..
wear an american brand
wear an american brand,
support your local town,
keep local poverty down
wear an american brand
tool and die man in omaha
waitin for an order, his lathe set to go
it ain't good it ain't right, laid off on Saturday night
the labour for slaves there, is way outta sight
now, here fine people, I have a plan
keep people working in the american land
I say come on dudes, we can conrtol
just buy it local, our economy rolls.......
wear an american brand
wear an american brand,
support your local town,
keep local poverty down
wear an american brand
wear an american brand
wear an american brand,
support your local town,
keep local poverty down
wear an american brand

But offshoring must be good for the country - just look at how CEO salaries and benefits have skyrocketed! :-(
Great idea, Malcolm, but oh so hard to implement. Not impossible, but really tough.
Good parody! 555
The only thing I buy from China is fireworks ( lighting one now: FUMP! ). " Wow, I've never seed a firework that made a number 5 in the sky ".
Took my favorite song AND sentiments too. Waaay too funny ; wish it was mine!
