So what do I have to offer on the subject? A song parody, of course -- The Don't Compromise Song, which can be sung to Let's Twist Again, written by Hank Ballard and made famous by Chubby Checker.
"Let's compromise,"
Words that make me shudder.
Yeah, "let's compromise,"
Words I've grown to fear.
Dems must not fall for lies
That the right-wing utters.
They can't compromise
With the GOP.
Every deal they've made, the people's rights are undermined.
It's time for Dems to fin'lly show some guts and spine.
"Let's compromise,"
Words that Dems shouldn't mutter.
Cause if they do,
Then the end is near.
(MUSICAL BREAK)
Don't compromise.
Frist can not be trusted.
No, don't compromise.
Please hang tough, you hear!
The Dems should keep in mind,
Rights go in the gutter,
When they compromise
With the GOP.
With each deal they've made, our people's lives are undermined.
It's time for Dems to act with gumption, guts and spine.
"Let's compromise,"
Words that Dems can't utter.
Cause if they do,
Then the end is near.
