BBV: The Musical! - starring Bev & Andy


(To the tune of “Blame It On The Bossa Nova”)
JUST DEMAND A PAPER BALLOT
AT YOUR VOTING PLACE.
JUST DEMAND A PAPER BALLOT,
VERIFY THE RACE!
UNTIL THE SHADY SOFTWARE’S CERTIFIED,
WILL WE KNOW THE COUNT IS BONA-FIDE?
JUST DEMAND A PAPER BALLOT
AND JOIN THE FIGHT!

JUST DEMAND A PAPER BALLOT
NOT A PAPER TRAIL.
JUST DEMAND A PAPER BALLOT,
OR THEY’LL TIP THE SCALE.
WHEN PURGING VOTER ROLLS IS NOT ENOUGH,
ELECTRONICALLY THEY WILL GET TOUGH.
SO DEMAND A PAPER BALLOT
AND DON’T SHUT UP!

a little whimsey on a very serious subject. please feel free to post your own BBV song parodies! maybe we can send the best on to the 'Raging Grannies'....

p.s. as i type this, Tom Hartman is covering the Bev/Andy press conference...

6. Ah, thanks for the explanation.
I haven't heard of any new ones either, haven't spoken since Tuesday night when someone was pretty damned high (on life, of course).

13. maybe no one knows
the tune to “Blame It On The Bossa Nova” ?

anyway, one thing to say for the slower-moving smirkingchimp forum is that we could keep a parody lyrics thread going for days... we did the entire score to West Side Story (as "Left Side Story") once, another on Jesus Christ Superstar and some brilliant Beatles parodies too...

so far, they always fail here. :shrug: just a different (FASTER!) energy i guess...
