The Association Pays Homage to Candy Crowley




Who made herself a factor in debate
Calling up facts much lighter than air
Who stacked the deck give O an advantage
Everyone knows it's Candy

Who's cutting off the speech of the Mittens
Vi'lating terms on which she agreed
Who's reaching out to rescue the POTUS
Everyone knows it's Candy

And Candy has Marxist ties
That let O propound his lies
And Candy does seem allied
With the O crowd (Obama's crowd)
With the O crowd (Obama's crowd)

And Candy has moon like face
That amplifies her disgrace
And Candy has things to deny
Now she's not proud (She's not so proud)
Now she's not proud (She's not so proud)

Who tried to stall momentum of Mittens
Tried to put words in Rose Garden Speech
Who's put Obama in a dilemma
Everyone knows it's Candy

Who's cutting off the speech of the Mittens
Vi'lating terms on which she agreed
Who's reaching out to bail out a POTUS
Everyone knows it's Candy

Here is being another take on original song "Windy", only this time is being hymn of praise to the dear Hindu holy man and mendicant, Mahatma Gandhi. I post it here because this song parody was REJECTED by another website -- the first time that had happened in over 100 submissions

Can you believe there are still, in this day and age, reactionaries that would REJECT a song honoring Dearest Fakir and Holiest of Holy Men. Is unbelievable comrades -- scandalous. And they say we're the ones in need of treatment. Without further adieu, I give you ...

GANDHI

(Cue catchy opening sitar riff, segueing into ...)

Who's peaking out from back of a spin wheel
Calling on Hinds to make their own clothes
Who's bending down to cinch up a loincloth
Everyone knows it's Gandhi

(BA! BA! RAM! DASS!)

Who's tripping down the streets of New Delhi (Ba .. Baaa..)
Chiding the Brits to vacate the Raj (Ram .. Daaas ..)
Who's been lampooned as half naked fakir
Everyone knows it's Gandhi

(BA! BA! RAM! DASS!)

And Gandhi has .. bone-y thighs
From lack of sound .. appetite
And Gandhi does seek demise
Of the Brit Raj (The British Raj)
Of the Brit Raj (The British RA-AJ!)

(Break to breezy and whimsical sitar solo ending in .. BA! BA! RAM! DASS!)

And Gandhi has .. pipe stem arms
It's part of his .. fakir charm
And Gandhi's a thorn in side
Of the Brit Raj .. (The British Raj)
Of the Brit Raj .. (The British RA-AJ!)

Who's tripping round with name of Mahatma
Calling for peace 'tween Muslim and Hinds
Who was a source of MLK's thinking
Everyone knows it's Gandhi

WHO's tripping round the streets of New Delhi
Smiling at ev'ry Dalit* he sees
Who's in a flick that's starring Ben Kingsley
Everyone knows it's Gandhi

(Apparently, there are still those who believe that India should be a colony of Britain and that nobody should smile upon a Dalit (an untouchable) I tell you the collective's work is never done.)
