DUers! Need help brainstorm lyrics for song about Katrina |
|
I've started using the previous lyrics for the song I wrote with Bleever about the stolen election. It is based on Beck's Loser to give you an idea how it goes. Add your replacement lyrics. Thinking hip hop this time and perhaps Chuck D or the Legendary KO might be willing to record it.
In the time of Katrina we saw Bush hired flunkies, Water was rising_________________ Meanwhile newscasters are crying while babies are dying, Superdome surrounded______________________. Kill all your brain cells and put it in neutral, New Orleans is flamin’ with a loser in the cruise control. Brownie at FEMA is how W wrecks an agency, Gamble with competency, kill it with frat boy complacency.
Someone came sayin’ I’m insane to complain About a looted treasury and a stain on my country. Can’t believe they left old people to drown, If you ain't rich, it seems you just don't count.
So you change some votes with a few keystrokes Doin’ cages in Florida, and lines in Ohio.
George says he’s emperor But he’s a cheater baby He stole the election (fascism meltdown) George says he’s emperor But he’s a loser baby So why not impeach him.
Forces of evil in a bozo nightmare, Playing all the rubes with a phony echo chamber. One is a weasel as the others sport the flag; A mother alone gets her son back in a bag
With the rerun wars from Mr. Cocaine nose job, The devious bullshit of a race war flip flop A GI hung himself with a guitar string; A slab of cannon fodder and he’s hanging so he doesn’t sing.
I can’t write if you can’t relate, Trade the cash for a gay bash for the body for the hate. And this time it’s a piece of crack We’ve fallen for the bad times, we’re choking on the nightmares.
George says he’s emperor But he’s a cheater baby He stole the election (fascism meltdown) George says he’s emperor But he’s a loser baby So why not impeach him.
“No one anticipated the breech of the levies.”
George says he’s emperor But he’s a cheater baby He stole the election. (I can’t believe this) George says he’s emperor But he’s a loser baby So why not impeach him.<P>
George says he’s emperor We’re all losing baby So we’ve got to change it (Sprechen sie Deuthsche baby?). George says he’s emperor We’re all losing baby So we’ve got to change it. (Or there’ll be nothin’ to be sayin’).<P>
George says he’s emperor We’re all losing baby So we’ve got to change it. (I can’t believe this) George says he’s emperor We’re all losing baby So we’ve got to change it.

In the time of Katrina we saw Bush hired flunkies, Water was rising, ignored by white house junkies
Meanwhile newscasters are crying while babies are dying, Superdome surrounded while the president kept lying
