A month ago, I posted the lyrics of a parody of this song on Daily Kos. Other Daily Kos members encouraged me to make a video, so I did. But it took a lot of time and effort.
The finished video has some rough edges and there is room for improvement, but we hope you enjoy it as it is.
They sang songs and operated puppets at the same time. It was taken with a mobile phone camera.
So here’s the video:
…And here are the lyrics:
I love inflation!
And mess up the whole nation!
Look at my graceful gyrations!
I love inflation!
When prices are at their highest, so are my spirits.
Working class people definitely love to mess up.
My fans love me no matter what I do.
As much as I love inflation!
I love inflation!
And mess up the whole nation!
Look at my graceful gyrations!
I love inflation!
If you can no longer bear the rising costs,
When your savings disappear quickly,
I laugh as I throw away all my safety nets.
And let’s support further inflation!
I love inflation!
And mess up the whole nation!
Look at my graceful gyrations!
I love inflation!
it greatly fulfills my greatest desire
To see all the prices go up and up.
So much so that I can’t afford to retire.
I’m obsessed with inflation!
I love inflation!
And mess up the whole nation!
Look at my graceful gyrations!
I love, love, IIIIII love inflation!
Let’s get straight to the point: The financial difficulties facing Daily Kos this year are severe.
We remain paywall free. We continue to be supported by our readers, not by billionaires and corporations. But we need to bring in more revenue. We rely on our communities more than ever for our livelihoods.
