The Crapness That is Obama – In Song

Home - by - October 8, 2012 - 15:56 America/New_York - 23 Comments

From an idea by illustr8r, who was reminded of this Vietnam era protest song when she heard it on satellite radio. The lyrics are remarkably prescient and fits this disaster of a presidency like hand and glove.
 

Lyrics-

Sunshine go away today
I don’t feel much like dancing
Some man’s gone, he’s tried to run my life
Don’t know what he’s asking

He tells me I’d better get in line
Can’t hear what he’s saying
When I grow up I’m going to make it mine
But these aren’t dues I been paying

(Chorus)
How much does it cost, I’ll buy it
The time is all we’ve lost, I’ll try it
But he can’t even run his own life
I’ll be damned if he’ll run mine, Sunshine

Sunshine go away today
I don’t feel much like dancing
Some man’s gone he’s tried to run my life
Don’t know what he’s asking

Working starts to make me wonder where
The fruits of what I do are going
He says in love and war all is fair
But he’s got cards he ain’t showing

(Chorus)

Sunshine come on back another day
I promise you I’ll be singing
This old world, she’s gonna turn around
Brand new bells’ll be ringing

    Is Jonathan Edwards still with us? The voice is an exact duplicate, if not his. Fur, my, my, but you have done yourself proud. Love it!

    Can some one find a song that refers to women in pants suits (Hilary is such a swamp cow)?

    Oh dang, JCLady beat me to it – but I’ll say it any way – FRILLIANT Mr. Big Fur Hat! Funny, I’d never really paid attention or thought about the lyrics to that song. Now I’ll never think of it any other way.

    And kudos to illustr8r for providing the idea!
