I used the recording to my Christmas song, “Santa Is a Pillowhead” (Sorry, Sean), wiping away its innocence and exchanging it for a most worthy topic of parody: Senator Mitch McConnell–a plague upon democracy.
Video:
Moscow Mitch
When he was young, he was so all alone
He never had a reason to wait by the phone
For anyone to call him, for someone he could tell
He was just a lonely boy who lived in a shell.
He’s running through the cornfields looking for time
Brings a shovel to the coal mine when a spoon would do fine
His coin is flattery, America he courts
His bride is Chaos, and she’s all out of sorts.
Oh, Moscow Mitch, Moscow Mitch,
When you do a reach around can you scratch that itch?
While you steal from the poor and give to the rich,
When the Pumpkin comes to town, you are Putin’s bitch.
He’s a hound dog—it’s hard to know you’ve been had
If Jesus ran against him he’d make Jesus look bad
Dixie cup disguised as the devil that we know
He’s what he needs to be wherever he goes.
Oh, Moscow Mitch, Moscow Mitch,
When you do a reach around can you scratch that itch?
While you steal from the poor and give to the rich,
When the Pumpkin comes to town, you are Putin’s bitch.
Mr. Filibuster, he makes everything stop
The Handmaiden to the donor class clan
He’s even acquit the chief if he shot him the street
The Bagman of Kentucky, he’s…
Oh, Moscow Mitch, Moscow Mitch,
When you do a reach around can you scratch that itch?
While you steal from the poor and give to the rich,
When the Pumpkin comes to town, you are Putin’s bitch.
Roger Ailes, Darth Vader, mutton and pork
He’d gerrymander Russia and then pop the cork
He’s NRA and Guantanamo Bay
He’s the headline when the dog has its day.
Oh, Moscow Mitch, Moscow Mitch,
When you do a reach around can you scratch that itch?
While you steal from the poor and give to the rich,
When the Pumpkin comes to town, you are Putin’s bitch.
