The Wreck Of the John Fn Kerry
The Wreck Of the Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot
Parody and Copyright by LonePalm
The legend lives on from the Kennedys on down
Of the island they called Chappaquiddick'
The voters its said, never vote for the dead
When the Polls of November turn gloomy.
With baggage galore, some twenty-six hundred votes more
Than the John Fn Kerry cast rightly.
His candidacy too was a bone to be chewed
When the Polls of November came early.
This hack was the pride of the Democrat side
Sounding like some rich twit from South Boston.
As the big pant loads go, he is bigger than most
But not quite as big as ole Teddy.
He was headed down hill when he took a bad spill
But he blamed it on the Secret Service.
And later that night when the cell phone rang
Could it be that Bill Clinton was callin'?
His words through the wires were a sickening sound
You need a VP with some standing.
And every man knew, and the candidate too,
Twas the witch of the Senate come stealin.
The dawning came late and the campaign had to wait
When the Polls of November came slashin'.
With summers hot blast there was a shortage of cash
In the face of a popular George Bush.
Convention time came, the Rat pack came on stage, sayin',
Johnny, were right here behind ya.
On October 9 WMDs were found, they said
Johnny, it's been good t'know ya.
Then MoveOn wired in they had voters comin' in
But the party and John were in peril.
On election night when his hopes sank outta sight
Came the wreck of the John Fn Kerry.
Does any one know where the voters all go
When your ads turn the minutes to hours?
With a positive push by Cheney and Bush
Rove had put fifteen more states behind them.
Dems have to split up or they might just downsize;
They all may turn Green and vote Nader.
And all that remains is the faces and the claims
Of the unions, the gays and the squatters.
Democrats sulk; Republicans sing
And Dubyas judges soon will be confirmed.
Old Hillary steams while she plots and schemes;
She cant wait for 08 to get here.
And farther below DU still blows
They whine and throw fits in their despair,
FreeRepublic will host as the FReepers all post
With the Polls of November remembered.
In a musty old hall in the District they whined,
At the Democrat National Committee.
A tinny bell chimed till it rang two or three times
For each state won by John Fn Kerry.
The legend lives on from the Chappaqua on down
Of the cold fish they call 'Bitchy Gloomy.'
Hillary, they said, never gives up for dead
When the Polls of November come early!

In 1803, we sailed put to sea
Out from the sweet town of Derry...
I might add your effort's a lot better then the other guy who tries the same shtick.
...'round here. ;^)
Ya know John could quite easily get out of all this by claiming to have been captured by the enemy (Karl Rove) during the last war (campaign) and was brainwashed (like Laurence Harvey) into self-destructing at an opportune moment in the future.
excellent.
Ready for a really funny joke...........JOHN KERRY
The legend lives on from the Chappaqua on down
Of the cold fish they call 'Bitchy Gloomy.'
Sorry, horrible MIDI
John Kerry, Lost?
John Kerry, lost? His noble brow,
Perchance revert to wrinkles now?
The valiant warrior strode the world,
Retreating now, his banner furled.
To face the wrath, withheld til now,
Of bitter phrase from stifled frau.
To pace the hall with echo dread,
While might-have-beens sift through his head.
To see his minions, tears bedecked,
And watch his ship of state be wrecked.
To tally promises he has made,
And worry how they might be paid.
To look into the mirrored eye,
And sadly to inquire why?
What was the key that slipped away,
Or what the coin of devil pay?
Ive sold my soul to buy this prize,
That withers now before my eyes,
That slips now from my straining grasp,
Which once I held in firmest clasp.
His turning mind brings forth a name,
The source from which the troubles came.
In vanquished mourning I confess,
I am John Kerry, and I approve this mess.
