The Lyrics
After watching last night's "debate," I felt much as I would if I were tortured by being forced to listen to one of the worst pop songs of all time.
Stented freak, naïve geek, giving us nothin' but warmed-over Newspeak,
Side by side in this travesty. Bored, out of our gourd, we
Are the poor people who have to suffer through this lame show.
There's nothing at all but bad in one.
Other—a kid, with too much id.
And how can anyone thrive list'ning to this BS jive?
Stented freak, naïve geek, giving us nothin' but Newspeak.
Side by side in this travesty, bored, out of our gourd, we. . .
Stented freak, naïve geek, giving us nothin' but Newspeak.
Stented freak, naïve geek, wooooe.
We're the poor people who have to suffer through this lame show.
There's nothing at all but bad in one.
Other—a kid, with too much id.
And how can anyone thrive list'ning to this BS jive?
Stented freak, naïve geek, giving us nothin' but Newspeak.
Side by side in this travesty, bored, out of our gourd, we. . .
Stented freak, naïve geek, giving us nothin' but Newspeak.

Brutally funny, JB.
Thanks, JD. I accidentally posted it twice.
Pacing's hit-and-miss (I had to force word stress in almost every line and deal with extra syllables). Still, this parody does a decent job of explaining why I'm writing "None of the above" on my ballot this November: 3-4-4.
The author of the parody has authorized comments, and wants YOUR feedback.
