My Favorite Song Right Now Is "The Piccolo Snare," or "Untitled No. 4" from ()

They have no taste. Has Gephardt even listened to the lyrics? And, sorry to say, you don't get any gayer than "Imagine." Anywho, the following is completely stolen from Media Whores Online:

The candidates for the Democratic presidential nomination were asked to name their favorite songs in Tuesday night's debate:

John Kerry:  No Surrender
Dick Gephardt:  Born in the USA
Al Sharpton:  Talking Loud, Saying Nothing
Howard Dean:  Jaspora
Joe Lieberman:  My Way
Carolyn Mosley-Braun:  You Gotta Be
Dennis Kucinich:  Imagine
Bob Graham:  Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes
John Edwards:  Small Town


We'll venture a guess about Boy Emperor's favorite...


George W. Bush, designated
"our young Warrior King" by
MSNBC's Chris Matthews

Warrior King
Lou Reed

I wish I was the warrior king
in every language that I speak
Lord over all that I survey - and all I see I keep
Power omnipresent, undiminished, uncontrolled
with a massive violent fury at the center of my soul

I wish I was a warrior king
inscrutable benign
With a faceless charging power
always at my command

Footsteps so heavy the world shakes
My rage instilling fear
Yet cautious firm but fair and good
The perfect Warrior King

I wish I installed angels in every subject's house
Agents of my goodness no one would be without
A steak on every plate, a car for every house
And if you every crossed me
I'd have your eyes put out

You don't exist without me
Without me you don't exist
And if logic won't convince you
then there's always this:

I'm bigger, smarter, stronger, tough
yet sensitive and kind
And though I could crush you like a bug
it would never cross my mind

It wouldn't cross my mind to break your neck
or rip out your vicious tongue
It wouldn't cross my mind
to snap your leg like a twig
or squash you like some slug

You are a violent messenger
and I'm not above your taunts
And if you hit me you know I'll kill you
because I'm the Warrior King
