John Kerry Protest Song(Cambodia 1969)

Kerry Protest Song 1969</font size=5>

I was in Cambodia when I wrote this
Forgive me if it goes astray
But when I woke up this mornin'
Could have sworn it was election day

The sky was all purple
There were people runnin' everywhere
Tryin' to run from the destruction
You know I didn't even care

They say two thousand zero, zero, protest over,
Oops, out of time!
So tonight I'm gonna protest like it's 1969!

I was in Cambodia when I wrote this
So sue me if I go too fast
But life is just a protest
And Governments weren't meant to last

War is all around us
My mind says prepare to fight
So if I gotta die
I'm gonna listen to my body tonight

They say two thousand zero, zero, protest over,
Oops, out of time!
So tonight I'm gonna party like it's 1969!
1969!

If you didn't come to protest
Don't bother knockin' on my door
I got a lion in my pocket
And baby, he's ready to roar

Yeah, everybody's got a bomb
We could all die any day
But before I'll let that happen
I'll protest my life away

They say two thousand zero, zero, protest over,
Oops, out of time!
(We're runnin' outta time)
So tonight we're gonna protest like it's 1969!

Say, say,
Two thousand zero, zero, protest over,
Oops, out of time!
So tonight we're gonna protest like it's 1969!

Alright, it's 1969!

You say it, 1969!

1969!

1969! Don't stop, don't stop, say it 1 more time!

1969!

yea.. that was my first attempt at a parody, someone needs to get ahold of this song and tweak it, also "purple rain" by prince, if you read the lyrics it would easily be tweakable to make Kerry look like a dumba*s

or how about "running on empty" to wit:

looking out at the bones I've crushed under my heels
I've been in so many crazy deals
in '69 I was in 'bodia
acting like Ghengis Kahn
turned my back on my fellow troops once that I was gone.

Running on empty
Running dry
I can't win this one
cause I'm running behind.
