The Majestic Twelve - Condoleezza, check my posse

Okay, let's face it. I'm 98% sure this song is tongue-in-cheek irony on the state of the world. However, even if I'm wrong, it can still be taken that way by intelligent folks. The music is tasty buttery popcorn fun - some cool guitar licks, great bouncy pop dance. Add to all that the absolute weirdness of hearing Rush Limbaugh repeated over and over as of he were a lyric. Which he is. Anyway, I'll let you decide for yourself:


I think I'll buy myself a home in San Diego
I'll buy some Mexicans to clean it every day!
I'd buy Canadians, but they're all friggin' lazy
That's where the hippies went when Dubya won the day

Oh oh oh oh, I will rule the world forever
I'm straight and white and male, American and free
Oh oh oh oh, Condoleezza check my posse
Clarence Thomas, Halliburton, mass destruction, me!

I'm sure that Europe is a lovely place to visit
My wife would love to go there every single year (sing!)
But they're just puppies (yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap yap)
They need to shut their yaps, the big dog's over here

Oh oh oh oh, I will rule the world forever
I'm straight and white and male, American and free
Oh oh oh oh, Condoleezza check my posse
Bill O'Reilly, Diebold Systems, mass destruction, me!

Here we go!

I can't believe I bought that land in California,
My stupid summer home just slid into the sea!
At least old Uncle Sam is going to rebuild it
My country loves to lend a hand to folks like me

Oh oh oh oh, I will rule the world forever
I'm straight and white and male, American and free
Oh oh oh oh, Condoleezza check my posse
Jerry Falwell, Coors Foundation, mass destruction, me!

Ann Coulter, Ann Coulter, Ann Coulter, Ann Coulter
Rush Limbaugh, Rush Limbaugh, Rush Limbaugh, Rush Limbaugh
Sean Hannity, Sean Hannity
Tucker Carlson, Tucker Carlson
Paul Wolfowitz, Paul Wolfowitz

Oh oh oh oh, I will rule the world forever
I'm straight and white and male, American and free
Oh oh oh oh, Condoleezza check my posse
Me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me!

LOL!!!

There is a really cool shout-out on this, called Grandfather. Okay, I'll accept that as a new grandfather, I'm a bit nostalgic when hearing this song. "My children all grown and with child/The fires don't burn like they did before." Slow, but tasty.

Another shoutout to Trapped Out Of Water, "I could be there, I could be real/Understand everything you feel/Bleeding it out, suffering in doubt." Thanks to the Majestic Twelve for a majestic day of music. The Majestic Twelve
