Stir Up Trouble
During November 2000, House Majority Whip Tom Delay (R-TX) sent paid GOP congressional staffers to Miami-Dade to intimidate election officials and prevent completion of the vote recount
(Sung to the tune of "The Curly Shuffle" by Jump 'N The Saddle)

(instrumental intro)

DeLay and his gang took over this town.
Their agenda is shrill, but they want the crown.
In Florida, Dubya's vote's on the bubble.
Tom DeLay sent goons there to stir up trouble.

Say no!  Say no!  Say no!  Say no!
To this muckety-muck-muck. (muckety-muck-muck)
G.O.P., G.O.P.  (G.O.P., G.O.P.)
Woo, woo, woo, woo (woo, woo, woo, woo)
Yeah, they planned it in advance.
They won't take a chance.
They went to stir up trouble.

We hate Dubya and Cheney, who plan to despoil
The last pristine wilderness, all for Big Oil.
These knuckleheads, whose profits will double,
Said okay to the goons who stirred up trouble.

Say no!  Say no!  Say no!  Say no!
To this muckety-muck-muck (muckety-muck-muck)
Mini-Me, Mini-Me. (Mini-Me, Mini-Me)
No nice guy (No nice guy).
Yeah, they planned it in advance.
They won't take a chance.
They went to stir up trouble.


WHO'S WHO IN THE BUSH FLORIDA THUG MOB
GOP Beltway goons paid to intimidate by the Bush campaign;
pResident-select Bush later congratulated them for their "work."

(instrumental interlude)

Tom DeLay and his pals would all like to see
Gore votes get slashed by the State G.O.P.
To Miami-Dade, were sent on the double,
To stop the vote count dead by stirring up trouble.

Say no!  Say no!  Say no!  Say no!
To this muckety-muck-muck (muckety-muck-muck)
Play to the crowd!  (Play to the crowd!)
Tough!  Tough!  (Tough!  Tough!)
Yeah, they planned it in advance
They won't take a chance
They went to stir up trouble

They went to stir up trouble.
(What's that you said?)
They went to stir up trouble.
(That's what I thought you said)
They went to stir up trouble.

Yeah, they planned it in advance.
They won't take a chance.
They went to stir up trouble.

(instrumental polka ending)
