As we lead up to elections
Which this season could be stinging
I’ll bet my bottom dollar
That my cell phone will be ringing
Through my iPhone and my landline
I expect solicitations
Focused on securing
Some political donations
Hello, the voice will greet me
With enthusiastic glee
And say they represent
The California GOP
I will tell them, “You can’t fool me
With this nonsense that you bring.
I’ve been living here for thirty years
I know there’s no such thing!”
It was diff’rent when I moved here
When the state was hale and hearty
And we had a few electeds
Who were in the Grand Old Party
But consultants, I’m quite certain
Told the honchos with a sneer
We have seen the demographics
So don’t waste your money here
So each year decline continues
And our expectations fade
From the very worst decision
That a party ever made
Here’s a state in every aspect
Where the outcomes are the bleakest
Why not tackle your opponents
Where their run game is the weakest
These are not your father’s liberals
Who were often times reliable
But socialistic rebels
Who are clearly certifiable
I’ll contribute to all causes
I’ve got money in the jar
But I need you to assure me
That’s you’ll fight them where they are
