Ronald Reagan Song ?

Ronald Reagan Song ?

Does any one know the name and artist of an old punk song about Roanld Reagan? I remember it had lines like:
"Save us, Ronald Reagan
Save us, Mr. President
Save us from ourselves"
and
"Ride on, Ronald Regan
Ride on, Mr. President"
and some other stuff about "Californ-I-A" and "sometimes Disneyland"

Near the end it went into a kind of hymn repeating Ronald Reagan over and over again. The only reference to it I can find anywhere is at http://eightiesclub.tripod.com/id7.htm - it says it may be by The Humans. Anyone remember this one?

I <3 that song. Love the weird instrumental and apparently the pitch change near the end.

I played it on my radio show before Ronnie kicked the bucket(coincidence?), and then again last Saturday in rememberance.

Did this band release anything else? If so, I'd love to hear it.
