The Lyrics

Written in 1996, about Newt Gingrich and his infamous Contract "On" America
(instrumental intro)

Sleazy G.O.P. are all so blind
They will not stop
They try to dare us to cross their line
Stop their party
Don't elect Bob Dole
Newt, forget about it
We'll say, "No go"

(Chorus:)
Now, they'll...
Do almost anything
That will get their Contract passed...
Yeah, they'll...
Do almost anything
That will get their Contract passed...

But I can't vote for that (no, no...)
No can do
No, I can't vote for that (no, no...)
No can do
I can't vote for that
Can't vote for that
Can't vote for that

Vote for Bill, 'cause he is twice as nice
He can veto the Contract and save our lives

Stop their party
Don't elect Bob Dole
Newt, forget about it
We'll say, "No go"

Now, they'll...
Do almost anything
That will get their Contract passed...
Yeah, they'll...
Do almost anything
That will get their Contract passed...

But I can't vote for that (no, no...)
No can do
No, I can't vote for that (no, no...)
No can do
I can't vote for that
Can't vote for that
Can't vote for that

(instrumental break)

Now, they'll...
Do almost anything
That will get their Contract passed...
Yeah, they'll...
Do almost anything
That will get their Contract passed...

But I can't vote for that (no, no...)
No can do
No, I can't vote for that (no, no...)
No can do
I can't vote for that
Can't vote for that
Can't vote for that
