In my
AP Government
class, we had to write a song to the tune of any well known
Christmas song
. The
requirement
was that it had to have at least five
current events
in it, from the past
ten years
.
To the tune of
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen
:
In
August
nineteen-ninety-one
The
USSR
fell
After a bust
soviet
coup
All
of Russia was well
Bicameral parliament
was established in
Moscow
A-and
Boris Yeltsin
drank
Smirnoff
as well.
Down in
Southern Africa
Apartheid
is destroyed
No one
discriminates
against
The dark-skinned
little boys
The
Live-Aid
concert helped so much, we thank you
Queen
,
U2
A-and
Mandela
is free from
jail
, woo hoo.
In nineteen-ninety, ninety-one
The
army
went to
war
Saddam
attacked
Kuwait
because
His life became a
bore
Schwartzkoff
sent tanks to bomb the ranks of
turban-clad arabs
While
Quayle
learned to count from
one
to
four
The
Dow Jones
industrial Average reached
ten thousand
Mercedes Benz
for all the guys And
Tiffany's
for girls The
biotech
and
dot-com
stocks made many people rich
But the
IRS
takes it all,
gee that's rich
.
In
Yugoslavia
ethnic
Cleansing was policy
By
President
Milosevic
But now where can he be?
Deposed
and
incarcerated
, his life just
sucks a lot
It's too bad that they will not
let him smoke pot
Believe it or not
, it all goes with the tune.
