Insatiable for corporate greed (America the Beautiful)

[redwitch]

and cronyism rule
our country now is so FUBAR
our president's a fool. ( or should I make that tool?)

America America
the thugs are in control
they'll shove their doctrines down your throat
and steal away your soul.

Emboldened by his power base
and jingoistic war
our vice prez richard cheney
is a Halliburton whore.


That's it so far, I am going to add more verses, just wanted to share what I have so far.

P.S. This is what happens when you spend too much time in your car. A car passed me with an America the Beautiful bumper sticker and the rest is history. :-)

1. What? No encouragement for a budding song parodier?

My heart is broken! :cry:

You'll be sorry! I'm working on a Donald Rumsfeld tribute to the tune of the Macarena- You'll NEVER get it out of your head! And "Who let Karl ROve Out? Woof Woof!" Don't mess with the redwitch. :smoke:

2. So sorry to have ignored your thread redwitch

you should be encouraged in this strange new endeavor. Just don't give up your day job, OK? signed, redwitch.

Hey, This is just like talking to myself but it requires typing skills! I changed my mind. Don't anybody post here, this thread is just for redwitch. So there!

4. Sorry I was late

Please don't do the Macarena. Anything but that!

[Bassic]

3. Great work.

Just be careful of rythmics in the lyrics, it's a teeny bit awkward in some places(Sorry I'm a musician and a rythm nazi)

Otherwise it's excellent.

5. Hey bassic, my son's a bass player too!

freshman at Berklee this year. He's really happy there. And he's way better at bass than I am at songwriting!

[Bassic]

6. If he's at Berkley

He's also a better bass player than I :P

Wish him luck, the world needs more good bass players :D

[redwitch]

7. I never really "got" the importance of a good bassline until

he took it up. Now I am very tuned into it. And I love to watch him play!

[Bassic]

8. Can't go without bass

:)

Does he play in a band? That's like one of the best experience I've ever had. I don't think I'll ever want to stop or at least not for a long while.

9. Was in a band at home for almost 3 years

They broke up when he left for college- he was the glue that held them together, I guess. He just joined a band at school whose name escapes me at the moment. And he has done lots of jazz ensemble work.

10. That's nice

I'm learning toplay jazz myself. Very cool stuff.
