This is Florida, shamble down the corridor Stalinist purges going off without a hitch Learning's banned! Everyone yell "DUH" In the State of Florida! I am the man who is huffing bath salts Shaking with rage and committing assaults I am the government, riddled with crooks Spying on trans kids, banning all your books This is Florida, This is Florida Florida, Florida, Florida, Florida In this State we call home We all goose-step to the Trumpkin song In this town, don't you feel the urge? Everybody's waiting for the next big purge! Round that corner, man Leaping from a trash can Someone's hunting for the Jews, and now you'll scream! This is Florida, Horrider and horrider Are you scared? Well, you should be! Transphobes, homophobes Shooting at your earlobes Shooting the schools in the broad daylight Hear the shot! Hear the body thud! Someone's just been Florida'd! I am the tweaker with scabs on his veins I am the old man shaking my canes I am the Incel preying on women I am the hurricane—hope you like swimmin'! I am the shooter in the Pulse nightclub I'm gonna have Black history scrubbed! This is Florida, this is Florida Florida, Florida, Florida, Florida Florida, Florida! We're enforcing racial purity! We will steal your Social Security! Coach's menstrual monitor: That's a thing in Florida! In this State, don't you love it here? Everybody's waiting for the Holocaust Our own Iago, out of Mar-a-Lago He screams like a banshee When the Governor is here! This is Florida, everybody scream! Won't you please make way for a very special guy Meatball Ron is king of the Sunshine State Everybody Heil to the Fascist King, NOW! This is Florida, this is Florida Florida, Florida, Florida, Florida In this State we call Hell Everyone dance to the Trumpkin knell: Wahh-wahh-wahh-wahh Wah-Wahh-wahh-wahh-wahh Wahh-wahh-wahh-wahh Wah-Wahh-wahh-wahh-wahh Wahh-wahh-wahh-wahh [END] --- [1] Url: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2023/2/19/2153826/-From-the-Kos-Songbook-This-is-Florida Published and (C) by Daily Kos Content appears here under this condition or license: Site content may be used for any purpose without permission unless otherwise specified. via Magical.Fish Gopher News Feeds: gopher://magical.fish/1/feeds/news/dailykos/
