“Chains” We Can Believe In
Here’s a little parody about Obama’s broken promises and failed policies we came up with set to the music from Poison’s “Something to believe in.”
Well I see him on the TV
Preachin’ bout the promised land
He tells me to believe what he has to say
And steals the money from my hand.
Some folks still believe him
But I can’t understand why
One long year of failed policies
And longer lines of the unemployed
Who thought they’d voted to bring jobs back
But learned he was only making noise
His stimulus bill spent all our cash
Cap & Trade made unemployment spike
Harry Reid held votes on Obamacare
Way on up into the night.
People back home, they cried out
“Stop this isn’t what we want”
He gave us chains we can believe in
Chains that bind our souls
Chains we can believe in
Chains that bind forevermore.
He promised us transparency
We’d see everything and more
But he got in the White House
And did everything behind closed doors.
He promised he’d cooperate
He’d change the way things are done
But he got off the train in DC
And continued as a partisan
He said he’d have no lobbyists
And then he brought them in
He gave us chains we can believe in
Chains that bind our souls
Chains we can believe in
Chains that bind forevermore.
Sometimes I wish we didn’t know now
The things we didn’t know then
I drive by empty homes on my street
Homes that were foreclosed on
He promised he would save them
But now the neighbors are gone.
But the CEOs on Wall Street
Got their bonuses again this year
And the poor guy who built their houses
He can’t afford to even dry his tears
And it just makes me wonder
How he chooses who loses and wins
He gave us chains we can believe in
Chains that bind our souls
Chains we can believe in
Chains that bind forevermore.
He’s taken away the high road
And now we’re only left the low
Sometimes I wish I didn’t know now
The things I didn’t then
He gave us chains we can believe in.
Ray Stevens: “We the People”
Ray Stevens tells Congress, in his own special way, they’re going to be looking for work after November 2010!
We Three Heads of Government Are…
by John Allison
I thought I’d try my hand at parody, so here goes.
Set to the music of “We Three Kings of Orient Are,” this is a parody of the attempt to impose a government-run health care system on the American people by the three headed demon we have running our government, composed of Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid.
My singing isn’t too great, but hopefully you’ll enjoy it anyway. I had fun doing it and plan to do more, so please let me know what you think.
Enjoy.
