The Hurry Up Song

In light of the bail out tanking today, it would do us well to keep in mind this song by Ronnie Ray Jenkins

and as Ronnie Ray says

THINK before you vote.

From Ronnie Ray’s Site HERE

I wrote a song about just how panic is used by the Bush administration to rush things through. So, all of my readers feel free to hum this one as you’re walking down the street, hell, make it your battle cry. I wish you all a full tank and a full belly.

The Hurry Up Song

Said the banker and the broker to the President
Could you put a little fear in the residents?

Hurry up now and bail us out, without their tax dollars we carry little clout.

We’ve made billions from those little peons,
Bail us out, and we’ll rob them for eons.

Hurry up

Hurry up

Hurry up

Hurry up Senator– sign this and sign that,
We have to move quickly, straight to Iraq

Hey, while you’re at it, sign the Patriot’s Act
Hell, there’s no debate required, not even for that.

By the time anyone bothers to read
We’ll have already accomplished our dirty little deed.

Chorus:

Hurry…

Hurry…

Hurry up

Hurry…

Hurry…

Hurry up

Let’s make haste, we can’t wait
You’re term’s almost up, we need one last big slice of cake.
Hurry up.

Said the oilman to the president, times are tough
Millions of barrels, just ain’t enough,
Panic the people, and give us what we want,
Make them pay ten bucks a gallon right there at the pump.

We can drill anywhere if you listen to our pleas
And add to your resume another dirty deed

Repeat Chorus:

Said the NRA to Mr. McCain, let’s use the same fear,
That same stuff again.
We’ll fool all the people, like we did the last time
Make them think they’ll be unarmed, we’ll go over the line.

Hurry up.

Said the Homeland man to outspoken guy, I’m plucking your ticket,
Seems you’re a no-fly.

Repeat Chorus:

  1. 110 days left, and the guy is trying so hard to line the pockets of his cronies. I’m watching the manipulation. Today, a lower market, yesterday a big gain. Confusion works for this administration every time.
