The Lyrics

Congress sleaze, scary trenchermen*
that glom lots on payday.
Each member “tithed” with pa-ayment
while he is locked away
from the world’s eyes; he has the power
to do things in this way.

So, mo’ tithings for Con men who destroy,
country-destroy.
Mo’, mo’! ti-ithings for Con men who destroy.

They’re bagmen for a heap o’ weal
and address us with scorn.
They, as the French say, “ma-anger”
from plenty in the horn.
These shiv-us mother’s nary work,
and that makes us forlorn.

From the blighting of Con men who destroy,
country-destroy.
There’s no fi-ighting the Con men who destroy.

Hogs at the trough, they’re fa-attened;
no sense have they of shame.
Their alleged job to she-epherd
laws, but it’s just a game.
They ply us with their schmaltz and corn,
claim they speak in our name.

They’re not biting the hand that is deployed
to give them toys
They’re invi-iting such hands that are deployed.

Fear not have they, so bra-azen
are their crimes day and night.
The system’s rigged to sa-ave them
from doing time. . .ain’t right!
Why do we put our trust in them
when they treat us like shite?

We are shite in eyes of those who destroy,
country-destroy.
And bullshi-ite is all that these Cons employ.

They’re getting lots of “ti-ithings”
from the fat-feline kind.
And their flocks they are flee-eecing;
post-shearing, they’re inclined
to shed shears, head to rear and splay
the cheeks of your behind.

They’re behind there to bugger you with joy,
bugger with joy.
Pine-nein gyne swine bind on hein’ splines to deploy.

They come to D.C., stenching fen,
after election day
and start right off to “ma-anger”
on a sawbucks soufflé.
To “patrons” they are knee-eeling
and take it in all way.

But no biting on patron’s glommed-on toys—
bite not those toys!
There’s no ri-ind on the tumid toys of goys.

Wow! Give to these whores rai-aises
when they move at a pace
slower than glacial?! Brotherhood
of felons in this place.
Their shtik is first to gri-ift us
then rub it in our face.

It’s a life of luxury thugs enjoy,
smug thugs enjoy;
ain’t real li-ife, all the comforts they enjoy.

Congress: hundreds of fools in House
who claim they feel our pain,
while in the back they shi-iv us
between counting their gain.
Their friends, like them are criminals
who have nothing to fear.

These sloth hogs put the country in arrears.
What’s that you hear?
Raising-revenue retinue raping rear.

You are truly a master of language. You can feel and even smell the rot in every syllable. You get my vote for poet laureate.

Amen to that, JAB. I agree with Patrick - poet larueate or maybe spoof-it laureate - master of language, phrasing and ideas - well done.

You guys just made my day--thanks!

So inventive. A smattering of French, German and Barryese thrown in for good measure. 'Tithing' an inspired sub. Those guys deserve everything your powerful verbal arsenal can throw at them but, sad to say, it'll take sticks and stones to break their bones.
Pine-nein gyne swine bind on hein’ splines to deploy - like, huh? My comp. is mere mortal, John.
These shiv-us mother’s nary work - is that a misplaced apostrophe (I'm not even sure!)

LL: "mother's" a contraction of motherf**kers.
