10 degrees to the left of centre in good times, 10 degrees to the right of centre when it affects them personally.
I cheered when Biden was chosen
My faith in blue wave restored
I'm glad that Bernie Bro tweets were shown
On the MSNBC boards
And love all them kooky transgenders
Til they mention Kamala's record
So love me, love me, love me, I'm a liberal
I urgently plead with non-voters
I don't want the fascists to win
Knock elbows with all the minorities
I'd say that we're almost like kin
But when the left looks like they're winning
I wreck what they tried to begin
Oh love me, love me, love me. I'm a liberal.
I listen to left right and center
and planet money on NPR
I like that Elizabeth Bruenig
but sometimes she goes too far
I may instantly orgasm
at the mention of FDR
So love me, love me, love me
I'm a liberal
Love Phil Ochs. Have his work and a lot of other leftist folk music saved. Check out the songs for political action collection if anyone wants to see the entire 1930s and 40s socialist folk tradition.
Jello Biafra also did a 90s version, it's pretty good too. https://youtu.be/OQ8ERBr9yKI
