Conservative Trends
(to the tune of Mercedes Benz)
lyrics by Andy Finn

Oh Lord, please explain these conservative trends
When I hear Republicans, they give me the bends
Worked hard all my lifetime, have a moderate lens
Oh Lord, please explain these conservative trends.

Oh Lord, please explain how people can agree
With a culture of life - and the death penalty
There's just too much judgment and hypocrisy
Oh Lord, please explain how people can agree.

Oh Lord, please explain the red state of mind
When people raise objections, they're always maligned
Talk radio is clearly the blind leading the blind
Oh Lord, please explain the red state of mind.

Oh Lord, please tell me why people beat down
Ideas and concepts that promote common ground
They paint an opponent as some kind of clown
Oh Lord, please tell me why people talk down

Oh Lord, please explain these self-centered trends
So many are Christians, that's what they contend
Worked hard all my lifetime, have a moderate lens
Oh Lord, please explain these self-centered trends.
