The Harper Song (Steve It's Time to Leave) by John Roby

The Harper Song Words and music by John Roby
Video recorded and edited by Scott Stephenson

Steve Steve itʼs time to leave
Itʼs time to close the Harper show
Your one man band has got to go
Time to take a long long walk in the snow
Steve itʼs time to leave

In the good old days we had democracy
But now itʼs Steve-autocracy
With a daily dose of hypocrisy
Spewing from the PMO
Thereʼs Odaʼs yes or no about a not
And whereʼs the bill for all those jails you've bought
It's called contempt and like it or not
You've really got to go

Steve Steve itʼs time to leave
Itʼs time for this charade to end
Youʼre running out of rules to bend
You wonʼt get by with a little help from your friends
Steve itʼs time to leave

Remember all that campaign spin
Transparency would soon begin
Your in and out spending went out and in
Where the sun donʼt shine
Another slice of Harper sleaze
A little thing called Detainees
You close down the house whenever you please
And you claim to have a spine

Steve Steve itʼs time to leave
Time to go screw something else
Time to put your crown on the shelf
Time to go and prorogue yourself
Steve itʼs time to leave

The Liberals should have hired John Roby to spearhead their campaign. This is way more effective than any attack ad. Says it all with a good laugh to boot.

Be sure to VOTE and VOTE SMART!! Cheers.

[Bethan Nodwell]

Beautiful song. I totally feel your Harper blues.

[Lyndia P]

well done sir! I hope this will be played on CBC radio before Harper manages to stranglehold it... heck, I hope you get a Juno Award! Some of the most meaningful and intelligent lyrics I've heard in a song for awhile. thanks!

[Ratfunk02]

Don't fucking vote.

[Ratfunk02]

Screw all politics. Remember how wrong politically correct was? All bull crap and they don't own me. NEVER TRUST A SUIT.be it a lawyer, politician or otherwise. Nuff said.

[Lafforte]

Really intelligent comment...!?

[CanadianBullFrog]

I would rather listen to the vynl cafe on CBC for 24 hours a day/ 7 days a week than have harper as pm for 2 more years (I hate vynl cafe)

[CanadianBullFrog]

Should be now. Can't live 2 more years like this.

[CanadianBullFrog]
