Hush, Alan Askew

Central Texans may have read that Republican Alan Askew's parents loaned him $200K to buy television ads in his hotly contested race with Democratic incumbent Patrick Rose in Texas House District 45.

In Askew's honor, I offer up this rendering of an old standard, to be sung to the tune of the lullaby, "Hush, little baby." Enjoy.

Hush, Alan Askew

Hush, Alan Askew, don't make a peep,
Papa's gonna buy you a legislative seat.

Daddy really needs you to win,
So you can pay him back from your lobbyist friends.

You'll be like your friend Rick Green,
Bought and paid for, and far right wing.

So hush little Alan, don't make a peep,
Papa's gonna buy you a legislative seat.
