Kick the Bastards Out

No one expected the Liberals not to play dirty, but the depths to which they have sunk still surprises me. In their final dying days, they are pulling out all the stops to paint their opponents as extreme. Without doubt, the last batch of Liberal ads go well beyond what would once have been considered unacceptable political tactics in this country. But then, the Liberals are proving what we knew them to be all along.

In that spirit, I have resurrected my song Poor Paul (right-click to save), which I wrote last spring. Admittedly, the lyrics (printed below) rather crudely express how many of us feel and are more Carolyn Parrish than high art. Nonetheless, it can be quite cathartic to sing along, especially during the chorus. Give it a try and keep in mind that next Monday Canadians are finally going to kick the bastards out.

Poor Paul

This is a story about Mr. Dithers
Otherwise known as Paul
Prime Minister Paul Martin
The saviour of the Liberal Party

Kick the bastards out
Kick the bastards out
Kick the bastards out
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo

Poor Paul was born to be Prime Minister
And when he got his chance
He blew it
He blew it badly
He doesn’t know what he’s doing
Not at all
Poor Paul
Poor Paul
Poor Paul

Kick the bastards out
Kick the bastards out
Kick the bastards out
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo

We don’t want you
As our Prime Minister
You’re an idiot
Get the hell out of the way

Va chier ailleurs

Oo oo
Oo oo
