William Finn - Republicans lyrics

[WILLIAM FINN] I had never met A Republican 'Til I went to college The mother of a cla**mate said she hated Bella Abzug And I said, “Are you a Republican?” And she just laughed And I said, “b**h.” At a co*ktail party given by this Republican She said, “FDR, would you like some pâté?”– She called me FDR!– I said, “I don't eat pâté served by a Republican!” She said, “That's undemocratic.” And then she looked ecstatic She said, “FDR, could you be gay?” And I said, “You'll have to ask Eleanor.” So I went to bed With a Republican And he didn't perspire! He said–as we're undressing– He admires Richard Nixon And I said, “Are you a Republican?” And he just laughed And I said, “b**h.” So we're in bed, and I'm in him, a Republican And I'm trying hard to make the fellow burst To be in him and be screwing a Republican Is damn unappealing But I can't help but feeling That it's nice to have the roles reversed (spoken) You're talking about the son? No, no! You're k**ing me! You're k**– You're giving me a headache! (sung) These are people who are running the whole world These are people who are ruining the world! I'm in a world surrounded by Republicans And I'm thinking maybe this proves God is dead While the good guys die, it's long live the Republicans Though it's not democratic This much I know emphatically I'd rather God k** them instead! Yes, it's true! I'd rather God k** them instead! [FINN & AUDIENCE] La la la la la la la la Republicans! La la la la la la la la la la la! La la la la la La la la la la la la la Republicans! [FINN] Though it's not democratic This much I know emphatically I'd rather God k** them instead Yes I'd rather God k** them instead!
