Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? to be sung to the tune of the Battle Hymn of the Republic
Following my recent poems, "Twas The Night Before Elections " and "The 'Bama Pokey", I swore off writing another. But then, I found I just couldn't help myself!
"Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing?" by Katy Zastrow DuBois
We lived through this election And they didn't pick our guy- Instead they picked Obama Who will make our taxes high! I guess we'll give democracy A big 'ole fat goodbye! But Truth keeps marching on!
( Chorus ) Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? You'll take a nation proud And you'll top it with a shroud But Truth keeps marching on!
They had the Panthers at the polls They had Acorn on the street If you run an honest campaign Then I guess you can't compete Integrity from candidates Will lead to their defeat ButTruth keeps marching on!
( Chorus ) Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? You'll take a nation proud And you'll top it with a shroud But Truth keeps marching on!
Defense cuts he's supported Hurts our military so! It keeps from them necessities For combat when they go The media smoothes it over So the public doesn't know But Truth keeps marching on!
( Chorus ) Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? You'll take a nation proud And you'll top it with a shroud But Truth keeps marching on!
His associates are nasty And they make me want to gag! They disrespect our country And they desecrate the flag But hush, don't speak against him Or your mouth will get the gag But Truth keeps marching on!
( Chorus ) Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? You'll take a nation proud And you'll top it with a shroud But Truth keeps marching on!
Four years in the future We will vote him out the door He could catch a ride with Teddy ( Can we 'vote out' Michael Moore? ) He'll claim " I couldn't do it all, So could I have four more? " But Truth keeps marching on!
( Chorus ) Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? You'll take a nation proud And you'll top it with a shroud But Truth keeps marching on!
If you do not want a candidate That you will just abhor Please call your local GOP They need your help and more! We've only lost this battle BUT WE HAVEN'T LOST THE WAR! Keep TRUTH still marching on!
Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? Barry, Barry! What 'cha do-ing? We'll always have our pride And we'll never run and hide We're TRUTH still marching on!
I would like to propose to everyone a silent protest on January 20th, Inauguration Day.
First, wear red clothing and an American flag pin; by wearing a flag pin ,you are showing support for our country and troops, no matter who is in office, and RED for Republican pride! We are a party of integrity and honor, and we should stand tall and proud! Second, if you have a flag flying at your home , lower it to half-staff just for that one day. I will always respect the office of the President, but I do not have to show approval for Obama and what he stands for.
Our military men and women are fighting a war overseas; while on deployment, they give 24 hrs a day -- and some give with their lives. They fight to keep our freedom and to preserve our way of life. Here at home, we are fighting our own war as well. We have some tough times ahead, and there is much work to do! Luckily for us, we won't need to give with our lives, much less 24 hrs a day- all we need to give is a little time. A small price for us to pay.
Consider voluteering. Contact the GOP or go to www.gop.com , at the top choose "take action" and then choose "volunteer" ... or Google your local GOP.
