The Helter Skelter

Since it seems that everyone else has set about forming political movements to factionalize NS further isolate their followers in a bid to increase their own personal cults of personality, I have decided to throw my own brain-child into the ring. Behold the most wonderful:
HELTER SKELTER PARTY!
“We’re not as crazy as the name sounds. Well, almost not,”
Songwriters are very clever people, as evidenced by the fact that they have money. Songwriters have also been at their jobs for a very long time and been very prolific during this time, therefore it is logical to assume that the correct answer to every question the human mind can fathom has already been proposed in verse.
To this end, the Helter Skelter Party’s primary goal is to insure that all legislation, arbitration, personal decisions, and grooming habits shall be decided based solely upon the (mis)interpretation of song lyrics.

1. A military shall be formed immediately, consisting primarily of the disabled. Though the blind are preferable, the elderly and wheelchair bound will also serve.
1a. The military shall also be composed only of males as only males are suitable for fighting, females shall take a whole lot of drugs and have lesbian sex
2. Shit shall, under no circumstances, be taken. Therefore, all sanitary services are to be stopped at once and the sewer systems (where present) shall be disassembled.
3. All Prisons shall be relocated to Jacksonville, Tennessee. Prisoners there shall be beaten with rubber hoses regularly.
4. All kids shall be issued firearms; this will sate their desires and make them well-adjusted and normal, just like Republicans.
5. One may do whatever they want, provided that they possess a four-leaf clover.
6. The color red shall no longer be used to denote emergency lights. From now on, emergency doors shall be indicated by black light.
7. The official animal shall be the walrus. Excepting those days when it is the egg man. Also excepting those days when it is both simultaneously.
8. Caring is an “unclean” activity, thus the masses shall not engage in it. Instead, specially appointed people shall devote their lives to caring about random things. These “Care Bearers” shall be isolated from human society so that they won’t filthy someone else with their concern.
9. Running shall be banned. All those caught running shall have their hearts removed in order to force their corpses to settle down.

NSers, if we join together and spend a sufficient amount of bored scanning through our CD collections, we can, as one, bring this once-great forum down to the ground, and make it into some sort of second-rate banana republic.
And that is an aim we can all be proud of.

I demand to know which songs are being (mis)interperted!

One of the chief weapons wielded in defense of the Helter Skelter Party is silence.
Try guessing, if you must.

Oh, come on surely someone else wants to craft a foriegn policy based on what, exactly, Richard Harris might have meant when he sang: "Someone left the cake out in the rain/I don't think that I can take it/'Cause it took so long to bake it/And I'll never have that recipe again."

Second rate banana republic is what we've all been striving for.

Now I shall go clean the bathroom, or shall I muck it up?

Very nice. And very original! Don't see too much of that these days.

Dave Barry's "worst song poll" named that song the worst song in existence! SOMEbody took note of that, I'm sure. By creating a political party around it.

Does this mean that I can count either of you as members?
Please?! I have seen the pointless heights to which one can take boredom, and I must have an office in those heights.
