docwebster | Well, now. THAT certainly didn't take long.

To wit, a Recall filk set to the tune of The Rainbow Connection (named, of course, The Recall Election). Note: the following is by Qe'van The Unclothed, Bard Of Nor, whose URLs will follow this instantly deathless piece of music:

The Recall Election
-------------------

Why were they so often leading the late news?
What made them think we care?
Porn stars and hustlers, and dozens of buskers
And Coleman and Gallagher.
Some one-hundred-thirty-odd names on the ballot
All of them wrong, wait and see.
Thank God that it's over, the Recall Election
Is finally off my TV.

You thought the electorate in the state of confusion
Would vote down the movie star?
Body bronzed and beautiful, He talks with an accent:
Perfect choice for way out thar.

Is that so amazing? They're always star gazing
Worshipping publicity
All of them under its spell
Though we know it really is horse-shit.

Now finally talking-heads have turned off their voices
I thought I was going insane
The sweet sound of silence about California
At least 'till they recall again.

I heard it too many times to ignore it
The recall in Two-Thousand-Three
Thank God that it's over, the Recall Election
Is finally off my TV.
