Subject: RE: BS: Song for Trump
So many songs. Jeri was adapting an old net-hauling chantey the other evening: "Won't you help me to grope 'im, gals!"
I really need to reach why down and come up with some Satanic verses.
Malvina Reynolds had a song called "There's a Bottom Below" which might be adapted:
THERE'S A BOTTOM BELOW
(Words and music by Malvina Reynolds, Schroder Music Co. 1970)
Chorus:
F---------------------------A
Do you think you've hit bot-tom?
F
Do you think you've hit bot-tom?
----E
Oh, no! There's a bot-tom be-low.
E--------D
There's a low be-low the low, you know;
------------------------------E------------------A
You can't i-mag-ine how far you can go – DOWN! (CHO)
Every once in a while you'll rise and glow,
But that's only so they can let you go – DOWN!! (CHO)
You sit at a party and watch the fun,
It don't touch you none 'cause you're off and gone – DOWN!!(CHO)
There's the nightmare kind where you fall and fall,
And you wake to find you haven't been dreaming at all – DOWN!! (CHO)
(Repeat first verse and chorus)
