The Anti-Demagogue

© Mark A. Mandel 2011
ttto Roberta Rogow's "Fire in the Hole", but not nearly so serious.
Some parts may be offensive, at least till you get past them.

I'm called the Master Baiter, and baiting is my trade,
And I've been baiting demagogues since rhetoric was made.
When hatred's wrapped in piety, served up to swallow whole,
I always tell them where to put it: "SHOVE IT UP YOUR HOLE!!"
        Shove it up your hole!
        Shove it up your hole!

        When they lie like Hell they hear me yell,
        Shove it up your hole!

A preacher was lambasting homosexuality.
He claimed to be defending holy wedlock's sanctity.
I grabbed a sheet of data and I waved it in the air:
"You've had three wives, two bastard kids, and ten or more affairs!"
        Shove it up your hole!
        Shove it up your hole!

        When they rant of Hell they hear me yell,
        Shove it up your hole!

A Senator was bringing in a factory to the state,
The product, jobs, and revenue would make the region great.
I asked her 'bout the toxic waste, the dying cows and sheep,
Miscarriages and tax breaks and the stocks she'd gotten cheap,
I said
        Shove it up your hole!
        Shove it up your hole!

        You know damn well that line won't sell,
        Shove it up your hole!

This [or "A"] battery exploded and a fragment hit my son.
I took it to the owner of the store I'd bought it from.
He said "It's not our problem, call the manufacturer."
"The name's misspelled, you know damn well it's counterfeit, good sir!"
        Shove it up your hole!\
        Shove it up your hole!

        If it took his eye you'd deserve to die,
        Shove it up your hole!
