Kelo song


HLS Federalist Social VP Brett Talley has submitted this song as his thoughts on Kelo. While we work on getting him an account here on Ex Parte, I'm going to go ahead and post it due to the timely nature of the song.


Day O (The Banana Court Song)
by Brett Talley


Kelo come and they taking my home
Day Sandra Day Sandra Day Sandra Day O
Kelo come and they taking my home

Thought the Court save my childhood home
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Too bad team needs another dome
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Hey Justice Kennedy you bulldozed my cabana
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Took my life and gave it to the tax mana
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Day O Sandra Day O
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Day Sandra Day Sandra Day Sandra Day O
(Kelo come and they taking my home)

Kennedy lives in a great big mansion
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
He no worry bout parking lot expansion
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Pfizer, Wal-Mart get free lunch!
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Poor man, little man takes the punch!
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Day Sandra Day O
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Day Sandra Day Sandra Day Sandra Day O
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Hey Justice Kennedy you bulldozed my cabana
(Kelo come and they taking my home)
Hey Justice Kennedy don’t bulldoze my cabana
Kelo come and I’ll never go home

I ain't no steenkeen' federalist, me, except as needed, but I loved the song. Also, I liked Thomas' dissent. Also, I _particularly_ liked his citation to footnote 4 of Carolene Products, in his section IV.

So, here's to you, Brett Talley.
