Drama Queens (Song Parody)

Posted by on

[High Praise! to Oppo]

Drama Queens (to the tune of “Killer Queen” by Queen (lyrics)

They keep emotions and chanting
In their petty arguments
“What can we take?” they say
Just like good marionettes
Built-in dramedy
Over Gorsuch and Kennedy
And any time, now, Ginsburg’s vacant
(She’s in decline)
Cavalier and delicate
Bell-curve inadequate
Extraordinarily dense

They’re all Drama Queens
Gun-grabbers, Philistines
Fighting rights with their loser dreams
Guaranteed to close their minds
Every time

Restaurants that pay a price
Make you lose your appetite
Wanna cry?

In annoying confrontations
They never keep to sane address
In conversation
Just platitudes and barrenness
Send ’em all to China
(Don’t separate the minors)
Then again, treat them mentally
If you’re that way inclined
We withdrew naturally from Paris (naturally)
Because we couldn’t care less
They’re idiots, imprecise

They’re all Drama Queens
Gun-grabbers, Philistines
Fighting rights with their loser dreams
Guaranteed to close their minds
Every time

Democrats, they’re as silly and
Baleful as a pussy hat
Fomenting an overreaction
Temperamentally out of class
We absolutely drive them wild
They’re out to get you…

Decadent and never nice
On Facebook in real life
Wanna sigh

Sidequest FREE for Two Days

Posted by on

My novel Sidequest: In Realms Ungoogled is FREE for today and tomorrow.

No catch. Just go grab a Kindle copy before Amazon runs out of bits or something.

So, happy Independence Day. Enjoy Sidequest for your summer reading. And for all of you who already bought, God bless you. That keeps me writing.

BTW, for those who read it, what did everyone think of the ending? I really liked my ending, and a number of reviews mentioned how much they loved the ending. But other reviews said they liked the whole book except the ending. What say you?
