Squid Ink Does Politics

Here is the classic party-tune single ‘Gay Bar’ from The Electric Six's 2003 album Fire. The whole Lincoln thing is pure genius. The lyrics are nonsense and include the lines:

Let's start a war
Start a nuclear war
At the gay bar.

MTV censored them. Apparently using the words ‘war’ and ‘nuclear’ is too dangerous to use in a song.

Americans are insane.

nice paddy-cast. Yep, America is totally stupid - apologies to our US fanbase for cultural stereotyping but it's TRUE.
I'm definitely not voting for George W Bush next time.

MTV is the only proof I have and the only proof I need. Insane. I stand by it.

But then, Lincoln was American so perhaps I need to rethink things.

Dang this international politics is tricky stuff.

I didn't even know he was gay, how dumb am I?
They certainly kept that quiet.
