"Superdelegate" the Song [VIDEO]


Posted by Adam Howard, AlterNet at 12:52 PM on February 19, 2008.


A song for one of those 795 Democratic Party insiders who put the mock in Democracy.
Superdelgate the Song

This song is written and performed by Roy Zimmerman...here are the lyrics, video is to your right:


Superdelegate
Won't you supersede my decision
Ooo, Superdelegate
I need your...super...vision


I can't be trusted
To choose my own nominee
Democracy is just too important
To leave it to people like me


So gimme my election
'Cause it feels good to check that box
And when you determine how it should have turned out
I'll be right here sucking rocks
'Cause only when the ballots have all been collected
Can they be corrected


Superdelegate
Won't you supersede my decision
Ooo, Superdelegate
I need your...super...vision
When your vote is counted
It's like ten thousand to my one
It's good to know that my representative
Has such representation


So, do someone a favor
'Cause you know they'll remember that
You scratch their back and they'll scratch yours
It's his or her tit for your tat


The Democratic Party is too democratic
'Cause Democrats so erratic


Nineteen-Seventy-Two
The nominee was chosen by the people
And that nominee
Was George McGovern
Ooo


Nineteen-Seventy-Six
The nominee was chosen by the people
And that nominee
Was Jimmy Carter


Ooo


But Nineteen-Eighty-Four
The nominee was chosen by the Superdelegates
And that nominee
Was Walter Mondale!


Superdelegate
Won't you supersede my decision
Ooo, Superdelegate
I need your...super...imposition

Ooo

Digg!
