(Tune of Oh! Susannah)
What a session the Legislature just had! It was downright inspiring…
The legislators, they curled up
On the lap of the Governor
While he gave more money to the rich
And he robbed the working poor
--
They screwed up almost everything
Like they were in a stupor
From schools to reproduction rights,
The courts and even Uber
--
Oh, Sam Brownback, don’t you cry for me
Y’all gave me fodder for plenty of songs with a banjo on my knee
--
Well they gave new powers to Kris Kobach
And put guns on all our hips
They made the poor folks walk the plank
Right off of their cruise ships
--
Well, the legislature’s session was
A hundred, thirteen days long
An the only good that that they did
Was to inspire this here song
--
Oh, Sam Brownback, don’t you cry for me
Y’all gave me fodder for plenty of songs with a banjo on my knee
--
The Governor’s great experiment
Has nearly ruined our state
The only thing that’s trickled down
Is the flooding rains of late
--
Oh, Sam Brownback, don’t you cry for me
Y’all gave me fodder for plenty of songs with a banjo on my knee
