back to satire

Your Representatives in congress like to whimper and whine when they can't get earmarks in spending bills for their districts.

Whimper and Whine (2010 version)
 
We are the reps known as whimper and whine
Whimper and whine, whimper and whine
That's what we do when we're at bud-get time
Whimper and whine, whine, whine
 
If you bud-get freeze, we hardly can wait
To whimper and whine till they fa-vor our state
 
Oh, we are the reps known as whimper and whine
Whimper and whine, whimper and whine
It's not very nice but it always works fine
To whimper and whine, whine, whine
 
Oh we love ear-marks, we whimper for more
And whine till our one group turns into three more
 
Yes, we are the reps known as whimper and whine
Whimper and whine, whimper and whine
That's what we do when we're at bud-get time
Whimper and whine, whine, whine
 
The outlook is bad and Rahm wants our seat
Till we whine our election to all those we meet
Whine, whine, whimper whimper whimper whimper
 
We are the reps known as whimper and whine
Wondering why we're despised all the time
Maybe it's cause no one else thinks it's fine
To whimper and whine, whine, whine
To whimper and whine, whine, whine
To whimper and whine, whine, whine!
