What a compromising situation, Millard Fillmore! Lyrics – The Academic Challenge Team
Singer: The Academic Challenge Team
Title: What a compromising situation, Millard Fillmore!
It’s impossible to please everyone
With an institution as peculiar as this
Enter one Mr. Stephen Douglas
With a compromise, 1850
Enforce the Fugitive Slave law
Take away the trade but keep the slaves
Admit California as a free state
A compromise, 1850
A compromise, no one’s happy (Oh…)
I remember when I was fifteen years old (I remember when I was fifteen years old)
I won a turkey raffle at a New Year’s Day gathering (…a turkey raffle at a Nеw Year’s Day gathering)
No persuasion could convincе me to raffle again (No persuasion could convince me to raffle again)
That was the beginning and end of my gambling (…end of my gambling days)
I have never since gambled to the value of one cent (I have never since gambled to the value of one cent)!
Well, I remember when you were fourteen years old (Oh…)
You worked in my shop and never did as you were told (Oh…)
Instead of chopping wood like I had asked, you threatened to split my skull with an axe! (Oh, Yah-oh, Oh, Yah-oh…)
Mr. Hungerford, I’m inclined to think that was unjustifiable rebellion
My only justification is that I have an inborn hatred for injustice and tyranny that I do not regret (Oh, oh… Yah-Oh…)
Mrs. Stowe, give us Uncle Tom
Show us why this is all wrong
No evil is as necessary
As a compromise on slavery
A compromise, 1850
A compromise, Millard Fillmore
One that will lead to Civil War
