Even before the song airs in April 2010, here are the lyrics to the political satire song, "Take 'em Sleazy". Special thanks to the TMRM band, Wavy Space for carring writer/host Ben Copeland through the song. The song was originally done by the Eagles with the new lyrics by Ben Copeland. Hopefully, the Eagles will not be offended since we do love their music. The original lyrics (small font) are intertwined so you can remember the tune. Enjoy!
Take ‘em Sleazy – Rebublicans
Originally - “Take it easy” by the Eagles
Well, we’re racing down the road tryin' to take away the votes
Well, I'm running down the road tryin' to loosen my load
Of all the Dem-mo-crat seats we find,
I've got seven women on my mind,
In two more if we win it,
Four that wanna own me,
We’ll take away the Senate,
Two that wanna stone me,
And put the liberals way behind.
One says she's a friend of mine,
Take ‘em easy, cause we’re slick and sleazy
Take it easy, take it easy
Just let the clowns up on the “Hill” think we’re lazy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels Drive you crazy
Gather votes while you still can
Lighten up while you still can
Sara Palin is our “man”. Just let T-Parties help our plan
Don't even try to understand Just find a place to make your stand
and take ‘em easy
and take it easy
Well, we’re campaigning on a corner in San Fran California
Well, I'm a standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona
It’s a fight Ms Pe-lo-si. She’s the girl, oh Lord, that we can’t afford
I'm such a fine sight to see. It's a girl, my Lord, in a flatbed Ford
Liberalizing our U.S. country
slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on Nancy, she’s not fancy
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
We’re gonna blow her from her seat like cotton candy.
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
They will lose as we will win, to the cleaners the DEMS we’ll send
We may lose and we may win though we will never be here again
so votes go up, we’re busting in, make ‘em queazy.
so open up, I'm climbin' in, take it easy..."Alright"
Well, we’re racing down the road tryin' to take away the votes
Well, I'm running down the road tryin' to loosen my load
‘ol Barack has trouble on his mind
got a world of trouble on my mind
The Senate we recover with plan to fillabuster - his agenda now left behind.
lookin' for a lover who won't blow my cover, she's so hard to find
Take ‘em easy, cause we’re slick and sleazy
Take it easy, take it easy
Just let “Dem” clowns up on the “Hill” think we’re lazy
Don't let the sound of your own wheels Drive you crazy
Come on Palin, don't stop wailin
come on baby, don't say maybe
We gonna show our parties growth like demand for moose meat
I gotta know if your sweet love is gonna save me
So take ‘em easy
and take it easy
