First, the Republicans: Don Henley I will Not Go Quietly
Woke up with a heavy head And I thought about leavin' town I could have died if I wanted to-- Slipped over the edge and drowned But, oh no baby, I won't give up that easy, no
Too many tire tracks in the sands of time Too many love affairs that stop on a dime, well Ooh baby, think it's time to make some changes 'round here
Yeah, I'm gonna tear it up gonna trash it up I'm gonna round it up gonna shake it up Oh no baby, I will not lie down
I'm brave enough to be crazy I'm strong enough to be weak I see all these heroes with feet of clay Whose mighty ships have sprung a leak And I, want you to tell me darlin' Just what do you believe in now?
Well, c'mon over here baby You 'bout to gimme a heart attack wanna wrap my lovin' arms Around the small of your back Yeah, and I'm gonna pull you, pull you, pull you Pull you right up close to me, yeah
Yeah, we're gonna tear it up we gonna trash it up gonna round it up gonna shake it up Oh, no no no, I will not lie down
Turn this thing around I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not go quietly I will not lie down No, I will not lie down, No
Well, don't you ever get lonely? Don't you ever get down? Don't you ever get tired Of all the wicked tongues in this town? Oh baby, just wanna take you away from here
I ain't no tiger Iain't no little lamb Suppose you tell me mama Who do you think I think I am? oooh baby, don't you give a damn?
Yeah I'm gonna tear it up gonna trash it up gonna round it up gonna shake it up Oooh hoh baby I will not lie down Turn this thing around I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not go quietly I will not lie down I will not lie down
Now the media:
Don Henley Dirty Laundry
I make my living off the evening news Just give me something, something I can use People love it when you lose, they love dirty laundry
Well, I could've been an actor, but I wound up here I just have to look good, I don't have to be clear Come and whisper in my ear, give us dirty laundry
Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em all around
We got the bubbleheaded bleach-blonde, comes on at 5 She can tell you about the plane crash with a gleam in her eye It's interesting when people die, give us dirty laundry
Can we film the operation? Is the head dead yet? You know the boys in the newsroom got a running bet Get the widow on the set, we need dirty laundry
You don't really need to find out what's going on You don't really want to know just how far it's gone Just leave well enough alone, keep your dirty laundry
Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down Kick 'em when they're up, kick 'em when they're down Kick 'em when they shit , kick 'em all around
Dirty little secrets, dirty little lies We got our dirty little fingers in everybody's pie Love to cut you down to size, we love dirty laundry
We can do the innuendo, we can dance and sing When it's said and done, we haven't told you a thing We all know that crap is king, give us dirty laundry
Thank you Don Henley.
