"Gerry Mander" by Jude Cowell (c) 2006

Young Gerry Mander went to Congress 1994
when Gerry Mander got his way the Dems were out the door.
Re-draw the maps and shove the bills, we'll win it all, y'see
for I am Gerry Mander of the greedy GOP.

Let's contract with America to throw sand in her eyes
and outsource jobs for CEOs to carry off the prize.
With oily wars and phones to tap we'll raid the treasury
to keep the cash-cow flowing toward the greedy GOP.

Has Gerry found his way around the ethics on the Hill
while letting all the lobbyists write every single bill?
Our rights, our laws, our Constitution just a memory
to grand ole Gerry Mander of the greedy GOP.

Young Gerry's gotten older for it's now 2006
he's helped a few casinos with his gaudy bag o'tricks.
In '94 he raised our hopes and vowed transparency
but now he's just a cipher of the greedy GOP.

2008 approaches and more fraud is in the wings
he speaks of immigration and a thousand other things
except the one we need to hear that our election's free
from any interference from the greedy GOP.

Hey Thanks, Lynn! One of those midnight occurrences that can't be controlled, just written down...& too sadly true for America.
