I wrote a musical, Well, one song for a musical. Here it is:
The Chicago Way (D) (G) (A)
(D)Hey there kid, this is the Chicago Machine
It gets rough 'cause we do it mean
(G)We register voters even though they're dead
(D)Cross us once and we'll bust your head
(A) We're not really bullies-It's just The Chicago (D)Way
(D)We always win and we never lose
And our bosses collect those union dues
(G)With our holy trinity you're never alone
(D)Little Ceaser, Mayor Daley, and Al Capone
(A)We're not really corrupt, It's just The Chicago (D)Way
(D)Now your opponent is some loser named Jack Ryan
If we can't smear him then we're not even tryin'
(G)By the time we're done we'll ruin his life
(D)We'll spread a rumour about him and his ex-wife
(A)We'll clear the field-It's The Chicago (D)Way
(D)In a couple of years you'll be President
Live in a big house and won't have to pay no rent
(G)With your friends Axelrod and Emanuel
(D)We'll make our enemies life a living Hell
(A)No, we're not really thugs-It's The Chicago (D)Way
(D)We just ask that you remember your friends
Across this country our power will extend
(G)It won't matter that you're guilty as sin
(D)Just stick with us and you'll always win
(A)We'll run the country-The Chicago (D)Way
(A)We're not REALLY sleazy-It's The Chicago (D)Way
