Awesomesauce Served Daily: Amanda's Little List (sung to the tune of I've Got a Little List from Gilbert and Sullivan's 'Mikado') →

indigoire:

As some day it may happen that a victim must be found,
I’ve got a little list — I’ve got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground,
And who never would be missed — who never would be missed!

There’s the petty people obsessed with the tawdry gossip mags
And people dressed as countries always dragging their own flags
There’s the whiny little no one claiming that he’s just too nice
To get a date from any girl, but more likely he has lice
And the people who should check their facts before they throw their fits
They’d none of ‘em be missed — they’d none of ‘em be missed!

She’s got ‘em on the list — she’s got ‘em on the list;
And they’ll none of ‘em be missed — they’ll none of ‘em be missed

There’s the network commentator, not so balanced or so fair
And their so-called scientists — I’ve got them on the list!
The newsmen who skew facts to win a race who just don’t care
They never would be missed — they never would be missed!
Then the idiot who praises, with enthusiastic tone,
All centuries but this, and every country but his own
And the girl who whines about racism when she’s white as snow
Who when asked about foreign affairs says that she doesn’t know
And Tea Party folks who claim our president’s a socialist
I don’t think they’ll be missed — I’m sure they’ll not be missed!

She’s got them on the list — she’s got them on the list;
And I don’t think they’ll be missed — I’m sure they’ll not be missed!

And people who write vague messages on various social sites
Those tired humorists — I’ve got them on the list!
The funny fellows, comic men, and clowns of movie nights —
They’d none of ‘em be missed — they’d none of ‘em be missed.
And certain statesmen of a certain compromising kind,
Who claim to know what’s best for all ladies and womankind
And a certain talk show host who called a girl a whore
Who won’t stop his inane chatter ‘til we have another war
But it really doesn’t matter whom you put upon the list,
For they’d none of ‘em be missed — they’d none of ‘em be missed!

You may put ‘em on the list — you may put ‘em on the list;
And they’ll none of ‘em be missed — they’ll none of ‘em be missed!
