New Bush Campaign Song - Still the One

[Lilli]

New Bush rally song unveiled today
Isn't this inspiring: No offense to Orleans :) -

STILL THE ONE (Orleans)

We've been together since way back when
Sometimes I never want to see you again
But I want you to know, after all these years
You're still the one I want whisperin' in my ear

You're still the one I want to talk to in bed
Still the one that turns my head
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

I looked at your face every day
But I never saw it 'til I went away
When winter came, I just wanted to go
Deep in the desert, I longed for the snow

You're still the one that makes me laugh
Still the one that's my better half
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

You're still the one that makes me strong
Still the one I want to take along
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

Changing, our love is going gold
Even though we grow old, it grows new

You're still the one that I love to touch
Still the one and I can't get enough
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

You're still the one who can scratch my itch
Still the one and I wouldn't switch
We're still having fun, and you're still the one

You are still the one that makes me shout
Still the one that I dream about
We're still having fun, and you're still the one..

1. you are joking, aren't you?

Cher

[Lilli]

2. Nope. Was watching Judy Woodruff and saw it and

heard it myself.

War is fun? I must have missed that aspect of it.

[aquart]

3. Hasn't this song already been branded to a product?

[Ivote]

7. Yeah? WellI Have a New One For Them "SO LONG"

By Fats Domino
:kick:

[Qutzupalotl]

27. CBS used it in their fall season promos decades ago

ironically enough.

[TrueAmerican]

36. That was ABC

ABC

[Bonhomme Richard]

4. "Were still having fun"? WTF?

[michigandem2]

5. still the one..

that kills a bunch
still the one that lies too much..

we're still in HELL cuz your STILL the one..and you were not impeached..lol sorry I tried

[Lilli]

8. Brava

I think ya did just fine :)

[billyoc]

12. No, you've got it!

still the one
uranium dust

still the one
lost all the world's trust

Diplomacy with a gun,
'cause you're still the one...

still the one
makes us cry at night

still the one
that we want to indict

losin' bombs by the ton,
'cause you're still the one...

Everybody! :)

[Lilli]

13. LMAO

Great!

[klook]

17. Hey, you got some good lines there

We could be a good song-writing (or mangling) team! :hi:

[michigandem2]

24. YOU DID IT!

sweet..that was good..very good..LMAO

[rlev1223]

6. Hard to believe John Hall would license it...

...if he owns all the rights and has control.

Possibly a "fair use" by BushCo at live rallies, but if they actually put it in an ad, it would involve a synch. license and payment.

[mac56]

11. I thought the same thing.

John Hall is a good progressive.

Bet he didn't know about this!

[hatrack]

9. "Forward To Death" or "Kill The Poor" would be far more appropriate IMHO

But something tells me that Chimpy's never been a big DK's fan . . .

[exliontamer]

22. "Let's Have A War (So You Can All Die)"

Personally, I'd like Shrub to consider "Ha Ha Ha" by Flipper.

[klook]

39. Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill the poor

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill the poor
Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill the poor
Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill the poor to-ni-hi-hight!

Yep, that sounds about right.

[Tabasco_Dave]

43. Let's Have A War, by Fear

fits Bush perfectly

[Lilli]

10. Everything they are doing latey

seems to be a very weak "B" team effort. Isnt anyone in that party remotely plugged in?

[Sean Reynolds]

14. Wasn't this Jack Stanton's campaign song in Primary Colors?

[klook]

15. Still a Bum

STILL A BUM

You've been fuhrer since way back when
Lord knows I never want to see you again
But I want you to know, after three-and-a-half years
You're still the Hun who feeds our fears

You're still the one who fills me with dread
Still the one I hope wakes up dead
You're a lazy fortunate son, and you're still a bum

I looked at your face every day
But I couldn't keep food down til I looked away
When winter came, I just wanted to go
Out to the protest, while you snorted blow

You're still the one that makes me laugh
Still the one making gaffe after gaffe
You think you're the chosen one, but you're just a bum

You're still the one who acts so strong
Posing in a flight suit with padded dong
We'll be having fun, when you're gone, you bum

Wretching, your war is growing mold
Time for you to fold, Cheney too

You're still the one who's out of touch
Still a bum making our lives rough
You won't be having fun, when we win this one

You're still the one you son-of-a-bitch
Still the one scamming us for the rich
You're worse than pond scum, and you're still a bum

You are still the one that makes me shout
At my TV, you stupid lout
We'll be glad we won, when you're finally gone...

[NJCher]

21. did you just make that up?

If so, I'm impressed!!!




Cher

[klook]

28. Aw, shucks

Yeah, I just copied and pasted the original lyrics and then started tweaking. I don't remember the song that well (of course I've heard it 5,000 times, but never on purpose).

If the Bush campaign is really using this tune, I'd love to hear somebody do a parody like this!

[Mad_Dem_X]

23. Bravo! Great lyrics! LOL

:toast:

[klook]

29. Heh. Thanks.

There are so many hilariously stupid things coming out of the Bush camp, the jokes are just writing themselves these days. I feel like they're riding a wave of idiocy that's in the process of cresting, soon to leave them wiped out as the wave crashes on top of them.



:hi:

[Lilli]

34. Yawp. Its like a weird case of Political Tourettes n/t

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

33. You oughtta get a medal!

[BootinUp]

42. Winnnnner!

congratulations! You have a career in song parodies should you decide to go that way. :)

[minerva50]

16. Credits Shania Twain and Robert Lange

as composer when I look up the sheet music. She may be a Bush supporter, I don't know.

[DinahMoeHum]

18. Methinks your're referring to their song "You're Still the One"

You forgot to add the "you're"

The Orleans song is titled "Still the One"


BTW, welcome to DU !

:kick:

[minerva50]

20. You're probably right

I don't know that version

[Lilli]

19. Thats "You're Still the One"

very similar titles

[LongTomH]

25. The Perfect Bush / Cheney / Rove Campaign Song

Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap - recorded by AC/DC

Young, Young, Scott - 1976

If your havin' trouble with your high school head
He's givin' you the blues
You wanna graduate but not in 'is bed
Here's what you gotta do -
Pick up the phone
I'm here alone
Call me any time
36 24 36 (slaver)
I lead a life of crime
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
repeat
repeat
repeat

Your havin' problems in your life of love
You got a broken heart
He's double dealin' with your best friend
That's when the teardrops start -
Pick up the phone
I'm here alone
Or make a social call
Come right in
Forget about him
We'll have ourselves a ball
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
repeat
repeat
repeat

If you got a lady but you want her gone
But you ain't got the guts
She keeps naggin' you night and day
Enough to drive you nuts -
Pick up the phone
Leave her alone
It's time you made a stand
For a fee I'll be happy to be
Your back door man
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
repeat
repeat
repeat

Concrete shoes, cyanide, TNT
Done Dirt Cheap
Neckties, contracts, high voltage
Done Dirt Cheap
:evilgrin:

[Lilli]

32. LMAO

[mumon]

26. I saw that on C-SPAN

I was pretty shocked.

That's the Doobie Brothers?

Anyway, that song sucks.

[BootinUp]

Oh... Oh.. I'm gonna get sick :puke:


Sometimes I think they just have a hard time finding songs that someone will let them use.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

The Chimp, that is.

[snowbear]
