Shirley Sherrod by Rick London c2010 To Tune Of Doris Day’s “Que Sara”
Dedicated to my wife: Lee Hiller-London
Under a bus she was unfurled,
A story bigger than BP,
Fox News, White House NAACP in perfect pitch,
Trying to oust Shirley.
Shirley Sherrod, Sherrod
In the land of the brave and free,
“Fire her’ yelled O-Rei-Leee
Shirley Sherrod, Sherrod,
We love you Shirley.
60’s civil rights this is indicative of,
While we felt we’d progressed instead,
Now your signature has value on Ebay,
We watched as you bled.
Shirley Sherrod, Sherrod,
A story fueled by Fox News greed,
NAACP should take heed,
Shirley Sherrod, Sherrod,
Your vision we all should see.
A voice to be heard was your only plea,
A hunt in search of a witch,
Obama finally texted Shir-ley
Andrew Breitbart grins with glee,
Then YouTube & Fox TV,
Shirley Sherrod, Sherrod,
Victim of hubris of the bourgeosie.
