I’m going to Republican heaven, Going to meet Republican Jesus After I pay off my school loans Whenever my banker pleases To let me out of the contract With its usurious interest fees And I am sure I will get there When I am down on my knees. I’ll have my Republican Bible With its verses edited wisely To exempt all the white folk From behaving quite nicely And making sure welfare Is only for rich white neighbors The rest are not allowed in Our society except as laborers. I am sure that Republican Jesus Will welcome me quite warmly For supporting the death toll Of our Christian Soldier army. He will be so delighted that We vilified ungodly abortions And how we treated those awful Poor mothers and their orphans. He will have to be delighted That we held back the riches We gained from our warfare Ignoring our soldiers in ditches Or maimed in those battles We know you wanted us to wage In the name of Republican Jesus Out of our holy sense of rage. Republican Jesus surely will See how cleverly we diverted The money to the richest people Not the soldiers we deserted. And, how only the people who Did not need help financially Got all the extra wealth we had And we made sure of it annually. I’m going to Republican heaven, Going to meet Republican Jesus And I’m sure greed and bigotry Will just tickle him to pieces Because it says in the Bible The only people who will get in Are the people that look like me And vote for all the same men.

REPUBLICAN HEAVEN
Our God is really excellent At death and genocide. How we love to celebrate How many folks have died. We always feel better about life And the wonderful heavenly joy When we’ve murdered some foreigner's wife. Or when we put to death girls and boys. It is so commendable of humans To execute those who are different Or if they commit the cardinal sin Of being some kind of sick dissident Who refuses to do what we want Like maybe lying down and acquiescing Or refusing to shut up and play along with Our political posturing and window dressing. And is is all sacred and very holy; Every bit of it is hidden by claims That all genocide and bigotry Is committed in our God’s name, Unless the genocide and prejudice Is directed anywhere near us. The we whip out our Bibles and cry And make a self-righteous fuss. The Golden Rule applies to all Except heathens and non-Caucasians. And then it’s a noose, SWAT team or At least an *** for every occasion. Because killing people is terrible; It is simply not the proper way To deal with all of life’s issues, Unless we want to, then it’s okay. And all of it is by The Good Book If the right verses are selected. The American Bible is written to insure The right people are not neglected. And everyone should worship And join the Living God’s legions And be exactly like he lived life: A blond-haired, blue eyed Norwegian.
