Guest Post: L.A.’s DG was inspired by the RNC musings of republican vp-pick Sarah Palin and the lilting melody of the classic Dylan song “Sara” (from his “Desire” album) to compose the following new lyrics to Bob’s music. Enjoy:
She laid on a mogul
And looked at the sky
While her offspring were wolfcubs
And played on the snow
A state helicopter
Flew noisily by
Rapid-fire rifle blasts
And that ma was no mo’
Sarah, oh Sarah
How did John make you want to leave your state
Sarah, oh Sarah
Too weird for vice president, too damn nasty to date
I can still see the polar bears play in the surf
They’re cute as basenjis when their icebergs all break
If they need some land, let them buy Astroturf
If they’re starving, let them drill for some oil for God’s sake
Sarah, oh Sarah
Sweet virgin angel yet mother of five
Sarah, oh Sarah
Every unwanted ovum must stay alive
I can still hear the sound of those delegates’ yells
When you said you’re more ‘sperienced than a sexagenarian
Wanna nibble your earmarks, drill in your wells
You fire me like a small town librarian
Sarah oh Sarah
Aquarius Diana, with a semiautomatic
Sarah oh Sarah
Crazy as that uncle we keep locked in the attic
We love your policies and your moving life story
Miss Congeniality always packing a pistol
Abstinence education should be mandatory
‘Cause we see just how well it worked for your Bristol
Sarah, oh Sarah
Just what Hillary’s voters have been waiting to find
Sarah, oh Sarah
You’re their ideal replacement, if they’re brain-dead and blind
