Dennis Kucinich has a hot wife
A G C C7
That’s what this song is about

A C G
So International Conflict look out
A D C C7
Her name is Liz and she has her tongue pierced
A G C C7
That is pretty hot I guess
A D C C7
She a vegan and an activist
A G C C7
Who lobbies against animal tests
Chorus:
Well,
C G Am
Lizzy Kucinich you scratch my itch for an attractive politician
C G Am
You were twenty-eight but didn’t hesitate to marry that Congressman
C G Am
If I had to choose a muse for making good as my first lady
C D C C7
I’d vote Kucinich/Hot Wife 2012 any day
A D C C7
Dennis Kucinich has an attractive spouse

A fact with which I’m sure he’s fine

I’d never tell that red-haired Amazon
A G C C7
I didn’t want her to be mine
-Chorus-
Bridge:
A C
Some people may call you a hippy
G
I think they just can’t handle it
A C
A smart and classy liberal lady
G
Marrying a presidential candidate
A
Take it as a personal marker
That you threw yourself into fame
Elizabeth Kucinich née Harper
You’ve got a really hard to sing name
-Chorus-

F C
Baby I thought you were the perfect girl
G C
Never knew someone like you could be a thing in this world
F C
But there’s something that’s bugging me, something wrong
G C
And I had to find out what was going on
Bm
See while you were loyal to little old me
G
You were a Benedict Arnold to my country, tis of thee
Chorus:
C Cmaj7
My Spy
C7 C6
With the love in her eyes
F C
Breaking all my geopolitical ties
C Cmaj7
My Spy
C7 C6
I wish that I knew why
F Cmaj7 C
And if you really meant to make me cry
F C
How could I have known that from the day we met
G C
You were trading around in government secrets
F C
Thought you were just curious about our national defense
G C
And now our love life and legal status is getting tense
Bm
Should have known from how you didn’t like to mention your career
G
That when you said you loved me you were really talking to your fuhrer
Chorus
Who exactly were you working for, darlin
Heard you whisperin in your sleep to your buddy Stalin
And I swore I was just going a bit insane
When you accidentally called me your sweetie Hussein
So if alien invaders destroy our planet
I’ll know it was you who planned it
Chorus
When you tell me that secret will I have to die?

Am F
People like to hate a lot on Jews
B C Am
But we’ve got a lot for which to thank the Hebrews
Am F
Because most of the world is Islamic or Christian
B C Am
And those both borrow from Jewish tradition
Chorus:
Am F
Everyone’s a little bit Jewish
C G
We’ve all got that Israeli flavor
Am F
Even though I’m not a Jew in race or religion
C Am
I’ve got to say the Jews did me favors
If you thank God you’re thanking monotheism
Which owes its origins to Judaism
And if you’re a guy, I’m sure you’ve surmised
You should thank a Jew if you’re circumcised.
Chorus
Well please don't think I'm being anti-Semitic
We all know what happens when that gets memetic
People hated Jews, for what it's worth
We get World War II across the whole earth
Chorus
Bridge thingy
So though they're small and oppressed you can see
The Jewish people gave us our history
They really shouldn't be so hated
Let's hear it for Jews being appreciated
Chorus

Time and Time Again
You were there
I could see you everywhere
But when I'm at my end
You'll be gone
I don't know what's going on
2, 3, 4
My time with you was precious
Don't always have to mesh, just
Don't wanna be cliché but gotta guess you could care less, was
Everything we had a game of this, this or this?
Warm up to shore up another forced love or kiss
Wasn't a whole lot I could do I wish I knew how could I miss
Don't think I could lay the blame defame the same and play the game
But I was sure if you could fake give and take for the sake of a break
Man, I thought I'd be the one to flake
Am I the only one you thought you were hurting?
Betrayal, flirting and skirting the kind of morals you were always asserting
Nah- tell all your friends what a loss I am
Twitter, hashtag, Instagram
Time and time again I tell you we ain't even friends
Chorus
What's going on, what kind of friend are you?
Chipping away at everything we do
If you thought I'd take it you never knew
We were close, me and you, brother and brother
Tighter than the tightest brand of fighters or lovers
But you threw me out, tossed me aside for any other
'Cuz I don't kiss and tell, just say it went well, you rose and fell and I went through hell
But my fate couldn't wait at any rate my mate you can't relate and as of late you've earned my hate
When you betrayed me, Benedict Arnold
Hit my itch, we made it World War II to fit, cat
But you keep on lying, go ahead
And I'll stick to eating my daily bread
Time and time again I'm done playing pretend
Chorus
I've heard some people say people are branches or they're leaves
Save up your time- it's treasure, everyone is thieves
Trust in your friends but don't think they'll be the nicest
Everything is bad, even presidents have their vices
Gone in a flash- "life is short"- that's what they tell you
How can it be short when it's the longest thing you'll ever do?
Time and time again everything you learn's unraveled and unfurled
Screws fall out all the time. It's an imperfect world.
Chorus
