On that great Re-pub-li-can Day
Won't it be fun after we've won and have things our way
Do away with anything that's gay
On that great, great Re-pub-li-can Day
Unions will be completely shut down
Voters won't be Black, Yellow or Brown
You can't abort says the Supreme Court
All you can do is stay on your
knees and pray
Glory time's comin' for to stay
On that great, great Re-pub-li-can Day

Come and get it, come and get it
Come and get it
Come and get it
Says here
Says it in the Constitution, it says
What's it say?
A might morning is nigh
Universal Healthcare denied
When we kill your coverage
You DIE
What a day for corporations
What a day for makin' workers crawl
Laughing at their lamentations
As we make 'em slavey
And rip off their balls
Says here
Bells will ring in every steeple
Gonna put the Bible
Back in school
All you white and
Gun-loving people
Forget about fair
And the Golden Rule
Says here
Come and get it
Come and get it
Come
There's gonna be a world shakin’
Deregulatin' day
Great day!
Can I hunt endangered species?
Glory to ya
Can I get pollute the Grand Canyon?
That's official
Hey do I hafta watch FOX?
Says here.
Can I get me a sniper rifle?
Sniper rifle?
Hallelujah!
On that great Re-pub-li-can Day
On that great, great Re-pub-li-can Day
Unions will be
Completely shut down
We'll have a king
Who wears a gold crown
You can't abort
Says the Supreme Court
All you can do is stay on your
knees and pray
Glory times
Comin’ for to stay
On that great, great come grab it
And keep it!
Don't share it!
Re-pub-li-can Day!
