I have wanted to do this song for a long time and finally got the inspiration. The best of our best are shedding blood to make people free. Our detractors need to!

MIDI - WE ARE THE WORLD

We have stepped up...when there's no one else who could
There's no one who's more kind or as good
We hear your complaining...it's really getting old
Shut up or your hands we won't hold

We have shed blood so that others may be free
We don't rule, that has been our history
We want friends and partners, and not subjects to control
A good life has always been our goal

To all world...stop all your whining
We are the light of freedom that is brightly shining
We have set the standard...so start following our lead
And perhaps you will get the things you need

When evil rules...to what nation do you turn?
We all know --- it's the good old US of A
We have grown so weary of your anti-US rants
Next time you face Nazis, go call France

To all world...stop all your whining
We are the light of freedom that is brightly shining
We have set the standard...so start following our lead
And perhaps you will get the things you need

(musical break)

When evil rules...to what great nation do you turn?
Of course, we know...the good old USA

To all world...stop all your whining
We are the light of freedom that is brightly shining
We have set the standard...so start following our lead
Perhaps you will get the things you need

To all world...stop all your whining
We are the light of freedom that is brightly shining
We have set the standard...so start following our lead
And perhaps you will get the things you need

To all world...stop all your whining
We are the light of freedom that is brightly shining
We have set the standard...so start following our lead
And perhaps you will get the things you need

To all world...stop all your whining
We are the light of freedom that is brightly shining
We have set the standard...so start following our lead
And perhaps you will get the things you need

To all world...stop all your whining
We are the light of freedom that is brightly shining
We have set the standard...so start following our lead
And perhaps you will get the things you need

Very good--with a suggestion about the Bridge part (Lauper's in the original song):

Well, well, well, let us realize that a change will surely come
When we finally admit Bush won

(back to chorus)

Enjoy the Inauguration tomorrow. You are still going, right? I can't -- I am celebrating my Republican heritage (working freelance) here in SoCal. I am still trying to find some place that would be celebrating out here. Maybe it will be posted before day's end.

Good suggestion. I plan to have a good time but expect to freeze off my California butt. It is 80 degrees here today. Will it be about 18 there?

This is the forecast from Yahoo Weather:

Tomorrow: Cloudy skies with a few snow showers later in the day. High 36F. Winds NNW at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of snow 30%

And since some Democrats are bound to be there, there is also the chance for a snow job.

Be careful out there, and the same goes for all FReepers who are going to this momentous event.
