A catchy little ditty... get the whole song here>

Banana Republicans
©2003 Richard Martin

First, they won the White House on a five-to-four vote
Ignoring the citizens, precluding the tote
But within two years they'd surely learned their big lesson:
Own vote counting companies, eliminate guessin'

They're Banana Republicans, leading the way
To the National Security US of A
They're bought and they're paid for, the companies say
That they'll keep them in office, and make us all pay.

Another good protest song for today's times...
The People

It's not about the oil
It's not about the land
It's not about the billions
We can barely understand.
It's not about the power
It's not about the fame
It's not about religion
Or the others we can blame

It's about the people
Living their lives
It's about the people
It should come as no surprise
It's about the people
Putting food on the table
The people
Surviving if they're able...

OK, I'm not the younger generation any more
I'm the girl from the 60's who marched against the war.
I'm not as idealistic as I was then,
But I hear the young folk crying out again...
