No one in their right minds would attempt to top the excellent performance by Stacey Abrams delivered with her SOTU response last night, but in an awesomely timed release yesterday the Pet Shop Boys provided a perfect musical accompaniment to her speech perhaps aimed at an audience not normally tuned into the news channels on the TV box:
Give Stupidity a Chance
Intelligent people have had their say
It's time for the foolish to show the way
Let's leave this world a merry dance
We've heard quite enough of experts and their dealings
Why face the facts when you can just feel our feelings?
Let's leave this world a merry dance
Let's give stupidity a chance
Forget political correctness
I mean W-T-F
I don't wanna think about the world
I wanna talk about myself
Instead of governing with thoughtful sensitivity
Let's shock and awe the world with idiotic bigotry
Let's leave this world a merry dance
And give stupidity a chance
You say corruption, I say justified reward
Keeps the cronies loyal, chairman of the board
Let's leave this world a merry dance
And give stupidity a chance
Forget political correctness
Let's talk man to man
Chicks are always up for it
You gotta grab whatever you can
We need a leader who knows that money means class
With an eye for a peach perfect piece of ass
Not a total dumb cluck, just one of the guys
Let's give stupidity a price
Let's leave this world a merry dance
And give stupidity a chance
