"The Bernie Sanders Song" (pending)

We're strumming here for Sanders
because we don't see a way
the others roll down a river
and we've just got to say
if you're rolling down a river
there's just one thing we can think
sooner or later, your pagan ass
will wind up in the drink


So, yah, we're boostin' for Bernie
Heya!
And we're stumpin' for Sanders
Hooha!

We're jammin' for freedom
Hoorah!
We're jammin' for freedom
Hoorah!


We've had it with all those rich cats
They want it all their way
We don't mind if they take a taste
but it's not for them to say
You've got to roll on a river
even though my ass don't float
so what if I am sinking
they say you should have bought a boat


So, yah, we're boostin' for Bernie
Heya!
And we're stumpin' for Sanders
Hooha!

We're jammin' for freedom
Hoorah!
We're jammin' for freedom
Hoorah!


This may, um, need a little polish yet.  I told people I spent my last thirty bucks on a Bernie Sanders shirt and it's true.  His honesty gives that kind of loyalty and hope.

And that means one thing:  make a music video as soon as the shirt arrives.  So then these lyrics start happening.  And that means one more thing:  finish the damn Sanctuary Song before it gets sidetracked.
