[D]

I'd like to say a few words

In defense of our liberals

Our liberals ain't bad, nor are they mean

The liberal leaders they have

While they are pretty bad

Are hardly the worst this poor world has seen

Let's turn history's pages, shall we?

Take Mao, for example

Why, within the first few years of him

He had criminalized free speech

Ruled from the side of his Forbidden City swimming pool

And presided over the executions of millions of people

A few years later

He outlawed private food production, and millions more died

That's like, single-payer agriculture, or something

That's not a very good example right now, is it?

But here's one

The Eastern European Soviet occupation

Put people in a terrible position

I don't even like to think about it

Well, sometimes I like to think about it

Just a few words in defense of our liberals

Whose time at the top

Could be coming to an end

Now we don't want their love

And respect for their views is out of the question

But in times like these

We sure could use a friend

Hitler

Stalin

Liberals who need no introduction

Fidel Castro, that's right

Liberals think he's so great

Well he took control of Cuba

He jailed and killed thousands of people

Just for speaking their mind

Or being suspected of having one

But hey man, now Cubans are equal

And desperate

A president once said,

"A man has a property in his opinions"

Now you are required to agree to give your property to someone else

It's patriotic in fact, and compassionate

And if you don't play along?

There's the government men with the guns

That's what the Second Amendment is for, isn't it?

That's what it used to be for

The end of socialism is messy at best

And this plunderous state is ending

Like all the rest

Like French automobiles, engulfed on the streets

We're engulfed in the land of the brave

And the home of the free

Goodbye. Goodbye. Goodbye.

Basic progression is:

D D7 G G7 D D7 E A

D D7 G G7 D E A D

Then the "verse" is:

G G7 D D7

And at the end of the verse goes back to:

E A

The bridge goes something like:

D G D

D Bm A

D G D

D Bm A D B

And then the final verse is basically

E E7 A A7 B C#m F#m B

E E7 A A7 B C#m F#m B E

A B E
