----------
Mississippi
(For Independence Day)
Sing loud this song of Freedom,
toss your Tea into the bay,
shout to Heaven, “Mississippi!,”
on this Independence Day!
No, no longer will we heed your call
and throw our votes away!
Hey, “Remember Mississippi!”
on this Independence Day!
The donkey's kicked us in the teeth
now one too many times -
with hooves named marx and alinsky
stamped us with racist crimes,
and now down in Mississippi showed
how low he'll sink the bar:
yes, his only tea is brewed in a
soviet samovar.
So, sing loud this song of Freedom,
toss your Tea into the bay,
shout to Heaven, “Mississippi!,”
on this Independence Day!
No, no longer will we heed your call
and throw our votes away!
Hey, “Remember Mississippi!”
on this Independence Day!
The elephant that's in the room
would rather wear a whig
and dance up some pyrrhic victories
all to the donkey's jig:
and now down in Mississippi showed
he'll gladly bite our hand
as he sips from the same samovar
that bears the donkey's brand.
So, sing loud this song of Freedom,
toss your Tea into the bay,
shout to Heaven, “Mississippi!,”
on this Independence Day!
No, no longer will we heed your call
and throw our votes away!
Hey, “Remember Mississippi!”
on this Independence Day!
Hey, “Remember Mississippi!”
on this Independence Day!
