Lyrics of the song are provided below:
AKIN BREAKIN’ HEART
There’s a Congressman named
Todd,
He talks straight to God
And what he says has me bent
out of shape
He knows a doctor can’t you
see
Says there’ll be no pregnancy
For a woman who’s
legitimately raped.
And you can tell the world,
that Todd Akin is a squirrel,
Or you can wait and he’ll
tell them himself.
‘Cause he’ll go on TV, and
he’ll tell you and me
that he knows everything
about a woman’s health
So don’t tell his heart, his
Akin breakin’ heart.
Don’t tell him that he has to
quit.
‘Cause if you tell his heart,
his Akin breakin’ heart
He won’t think that it’s
legitimate.
You can tell Louise, padlock
your BVDs
Before you go a walkin’ in
the sun.
And you can tell Adele, that
she’ll go straight to hell
If she ever tries to have a
little fun.
You can tell ol’ Mitt, that
he should show some grit,
And tell the man his Senate
try is dyin’
But if he ever did, old Todd
would flip his lid,
‘cause his views on rape are
just like Mr. Ryan’s.
So don’t tell his heart, his
Akin breakin’ heart.
Don’t tell him that he has to
quit
‘Cause if you tell his heart,
his Akin breakin’ heart
He won’t think that it’s
legitimate.
Don’t tell his heart, his
Akin breakin’ heart
Don’t try to tell him he
should quit.
‘Cause if you tell his heart,
his Akin breakin’ heart
He won’t think that it’s
legitimate.
Your lyrics show that you have at least some potential as a songwriter. Did you perhaps miss your calling?
ReplyDeleteI was wondering what would rhyme with "Legitimate." You do not disappoint. Best 99 cents I spent today.
ReplyDeleteAnd just FYI, on my iTunes music library you fall between Randy Newman and Ray Charles. Not bad company at all!
Thanks for the kind words. This new sideline of mine has been a lot of fun.
