That's the sort of tune that sticks in your head. It's going to drive me crazy soon. At least it's a funny song.

I agree with BoCo.
Besides its utter childishness, it wallows in the perennial fashion of bashing our social institutions. It's easy to criticize the very things that underlie and ultimately support us and our way of life. Our government is a convenient target to thumb our noses at. I suppose that's why it's such a common thing to do.

Actually, in this particular case, I agree with most of what he's saying. The BS about the FCC fining people is just wrong, and that's his main point. The rest of it, well, you don't have to agree with him. Releasing it as he's done is probably the cheapest way for him to exibit his position.

Childish humour is still goddamn funny humour. Unless you're old

Criticising the 'institutions that support our way of life' is the most important way to support 'our' way of life.
It's a song of satire, not a subtle one, but who wants subtle?

Yes, hulk, older than a child I suppose...
manalone, it doesn't seem particularly inventive to me to say "fuck you" repetitively to an object of "satire." Of course, something like this would be a matter of taste.

Offend who? - the people who like this sort of thing?
Judging from comments here, it's quite popular and well-liked. I'm not offended. I just have different standards for what constitutes good work and what doesn't.
