Safe in gerrymandered districts
House Tea Partiers vie
To end the democratic process
Through calumny and lies.
Hateful of our President
And much in love with Cruz
Tea partiers set new precedent
For filibustered schmooze.
Ask not what to do for country
But just for Red State views –
Pro-gun, pro-life, and anti-tax
And poor and migrant crews.
Safe in gerrymandered districts
Untouched by Reason
And wed to right-wing cliques
Tea Partiers foment treason
And call it Constitutional;
While liberals quake and quail
And cry, “Delusional!”
The nation lies derailed.
