Great Political Songs of DFQ

I can't sing but I have a special talent. I can basically take any song out there and change the words and damn it's good. I have about 60 of these, some of them political. (I have a great Rush Limbaugh parody to Paradise by the Dashboard Light, also a Conservative Republicans filthy pigs they undermine America sung to Yankee Doodle Dandy and a mockery of John Wayne called Not A Man sung to Rocket Man as well as She'll Never Be A Woman To Me sung to the Billy Joel song.  I also have one for Bush called "Hey Little Georgie"

One of my early ones was about Ronald Reagan and saying bye-bye Mr. American lie.  I changed a few words around recently but it's 99% the same.  Ronald Reagan, second worst president ever. Ronald (6) Wilson (6) Reagan (6). The devil. Pure evil. A sick man. A criminal. A murderer. Pure evil. Ronald Reagan, second worst president ever. So we dedicate the following song to him entitled, Bye Bye Mr. American Lie. It's sung to the Don McLean song.


A long, long time ago, I can still remember when that bigot used to make me frown.

And I knew if he had the chance, he’d say to the privileged have a free dance, and the sheep can pretend to be happy for a while.

Yes Ronald Reagan made me shiver, with every propaganda piece he’d deliver,

Bad news on the horizon, the high tax, high deficit, multi trillion dollar debt.

I did remember not to cry, when Nancy Reagan was a widowed bride, Ronnie was evil deep inside and the world’s better off now that Ronald Reagan is getting fried.

So Bye Bye Mr. American Lie, drove the country into bankruptcy and the middle class went dry. The good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye praying they hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died. They hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died.

He epitomized Marie Antoinette economics and social fascism, and like ayatollahs tried to substitute a god above. They said that their bible told them so.

But they supported apartheid and neo-nazis across the globe, but 23% of Americans elected Reagan’s immoral soul, and he destroyed schools, health care, and the environment too.

Well I know that fascists claim that I blame him, but most of America was sleeping during those elections, ninety one percent of Americans standard of living went downward too, as the middle class suffered from supply side blues. I was an idealistic teenage boy but Reagan’s deep seated hate tried to sap all of our joy, but the country will be back in luck, the day that fascism dies. I started singing,

Bye Bye Mr. American Lie, drove the country into bankruptcy and the middle class went dry. The good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye praying they hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died. They hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died.

Now for eight years a conservative Congress left him on his own, corporate welfare and military waste grew at an outrageous one, but that’s not how it should have been.

When the Gipper gave welfare to elitist kings and queens, he raised middle class taxes on Jane and Dean, and cut important domestic programs at the expense of you and me.

And while one-hundred and thirty-nine indicted administration members were going down, the Gipper stole America’s freedom crown. The courtroom was Ku Klux Klanned, and civil rights were being panned.

And while facts show that Reagan was bourgeoisie Marx, the Radical Right weakened women’s freedoms and national parks. And our country will always be in the dark until the day conservatism and fascism dies. I started singing,

Bye Bye Mr. American Lie, drove the country into bankruptcy and the middle class went dry. The good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye praying they hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died. They hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died.

Helter-skelter, first to thirteenth in manufacturing swelter, six million more people were without shelter, our credit status was falling fast.

The polluters were destroying air and grass, the Cabinet callously tried for a deregulation pass, but the Gipper on the sidelines didn’t care.

Now the social policy was ayatollahism resumed, while Ollie North and George Bush Sr. played a goose-stepping tune. The fascists all got up to dance, millions of innocent foreign civilians never had a chance. The Gipper helped kill tens of millions abroad in fields, but still right wing historical revisionists refuse to yield. Oh please do recall his trip to honor Nazis in Bitburg’s fields, the day Ronald Reagan died. We started singing,

Bye Bye Mr. American Lie, drove the country into bankruptcy and the middle class went dry. The good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye praying they hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died. They hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died.

He funded killings all over the place, lowest part bidding lost a teacher in space, Ronnie gave weapons to Bin Laden so he could kill Americans.

So Teflon Ronnie be evil, Ronnie be slick, Ronnie was controlled by a bunch of fascist pricks. Teflon Ronald Reagan was the devil’s biggest friend.

Oh as nuclear and chemical weapons proliferated across the world stage, my hands were quenched in fists of rage, it was clear Ronnie came straight from hell, to shorten earth’s time to ring its bell.

As crime rates soared high into the night, social freedoms were withering left and right. I saw God and the angels laughing with delight, the day Ronnie Reagan died. I started singing,

Bye Bye Mr. American Lie, drove the country into bankruptcy and the middle class went dry. The good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye praying they hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died. They hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died.

The poor and middle class just sang the blues, while wealthy elitists just got more happy news, but Teflon Ronnie just smiled and turned away.

I went down to the history store and I heard this music with Harding, Coolidge and Hoover before, but mean Ronnie just continued bashing minorities, immigrants, women and the few who were gay.

Now in cardboard boxed streets the children screamed, the lovers cried, and the impoverished no longer dreamed. But back then not a word was spoken, how could Good Morning America be broken?

And the one monster God despised the most, Ronald Reagan, that bigot and his meanspirited ghost. Reagan caught the express train straight to hell, the day Ronald Reagan died. I started singing,

Bye Bye Mr. American Lie, drove the country into bankruptcy and the middle class went dry. The good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye praying they hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died. They hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died.

They were singing, Bye Bye Mr. American Lie, drove the country into bankruptcy and the middle class went dry. The good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye praying they hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died. They hoped that all those to the left of Falwell died.
