A funny song was recently posted on radio talk show host Terry Anderson`s website. To listen to it you can either go to his homepage and scroll to the link titled: “Listen Up! Great New Tune!, McCain`s Got to Go!” or you can download the MP3 directly.
I`m not sure who did the song but it`s obviously a professional production. Terry Anderson played most of the song about 40 minutes into his March 21 show [archived here].
The tune is a knock off of the classic Frankie and Johnnie song but with a very different kind of message. The song equates the liberal policies of McCain and Kennedy and uses that as a justification to tell McCain that it`s time for him to retire from the Senate. It`s a RINO go home message.
The lyrics and some links that may have inspired each verse:
Flush the toilet Johnny and Teddy
Johnny and Teddy were Senators
On opposite sides of the aisle
They got together and drafted a bill
Guaranteed to make illegals smile
Amnesty was their game – and they had no shameJohnny and Senator Feingold
Gave campaign finance a try
But then the highest court in the land
Said the 1st amendment must apply
Gotta play by the rules – now Johnny looks like a foolJohnny and Mr. Obama
They both agree Gitmo should close
But bringing terrorists into the USA
Is a plan that we oppose
No, they don’t belong – and Johnny’s got it all wrongNow Johnny and Senator Lieberman
Got together on cap and trade
Anemic hands across the aisle
Gonna send the country to its grave
It’s time to let him know – old Johnny’s gotta goJohnny believes Global Warming
Limousine Liberals and all
Congressional junkets to Copenhagen
Everybody’s havin’ a ball
Just ask Al Gore – Johnny knows the scoreS & L Man Charlie Keating
He came to Johnny one day
Said “the government boys are sniffing around
How much to make `em go away?”
Did Johnny take a bribe to join the Keating 5?Now fast-forward 20 years later
Banks are in trouble again
Johnny says, “Let’s bail �em out
It’s just a trillion – or maybe ten.
Let’s put some wind in their sails – �cause they’re too big to fail.”We know there`s oil in Alaska
Drilling won`t cause any harm
But Johnny agrees with the tree-hugging geeks
Gas is gonna cost a leg and an arm
Johnny why can’t you see what’s good for you and me?Now everyone knows about ACORN
They get lots of taxpayers’ dough
Prostitution rings and voter fraud
And home loans to any old schmoe
No matter ACORN’s crimes – Johnny thinks they’re just fineWe`re tired of hearin` your flip-flops
We`re tired of hearin` your lies
You may think we`re all dummies but you can`t
Pull the wool over our eyes
You`re career`s hit a snag – so start packin` your bagsâ€?Cause Johnny, you’ve worn out your welco
It’s time to bid DC goodbye
Go write a book or learn to cook
And eat a little humble pie
Just ask Sheriff Joe – he says you gotta goYeah, go Johnny, go – it’s time to hit the road.
Good-bye
