Harper Valley

A little Ditty for us all

I found this blog Harper Valley from a link on Alison's Creekside blog. Many of us have heard the tune Harper Valley PTA, a Jeannie C Riley hit from many years ago.

here are some of the original lyrics...

Well, it happened that the P.T.A. was gonna meet that very afternoon
They were sure surprised when Mrs. Johnson wore her mini-skirt into the room
And as she walked up to the blackboard, I still recall the words she had to say
She said, "I'd like to address this meeting of the Harper Valley P.T.A."

And here be the rewritten lyrics...

Well, it happened that the P.T.A. was gonna meet that very afternoon
They were sure surprised when Mrs. Johnson brought her clan right into the room
They wore suits and tie-dye, rags, and some were even gay
She said, "I'd like to address this meeting of the Harper Valley P.T.A."

Well Mr. Harper couldn't be here cause he was down visiting Bush
And secretly they were grabbing each other's little neo-touche
Then you have the nerve to tell me you think that as a mother I'm not fit
Well this is just a little Peyton Place and you're all assholes and upper class twits

Don't you just love blogs with an ability to have fun and poke neocons.
