[PJ-Comix]

You're back. I have good news and bad news for you. First the good news...

You're sure to win a songwriting political parody contest offering a prize of $2500.

And now the bad news...

You're too late. There was such a contest for a parody song about the 2000 contested election but the deadline was December 2000. Too bad because I bet your "Palm Beach Polka" would have won.

I bet your "Palm Beach Polka" would have won.

Thanks! BTW, it's "The Palm Beach POKEY," based on "The Hokey Pokey."

THE PALM BEACH POKEY
Tune: "The Hokey Pokey"

You put your stylus in,
You put your stylus out,
You put your stylus in,
And you punch Buchanan out.
You do the Palm Beach Pokey
And you turn the count around,
That's what it's all about!

You put the Gore votes in,
You put the Bush votes out,
You put the Gore votes in,
And you do another count.
You do the Palm Beach Pokey
And you turn the count around,
That's what it's all about!

You bring your lawyers in,
You drag the whole thing out,
You bring your lawyers in,
And you put it all in doubt.
You do the Palm Beach Pokey
And you turn the count around,
That's what it's all about!

You let your doctors spin,
You let the pundits spout,
You let your doctors spin,
And your people whine and pout.
You do the Palm Beach Pokey
And you turn the count around,
That's what it's all about!

You do the Palm Beach Pokey,
You do the Palm Beach Pokey,
You do the Palm Beach Pokey,
That's what it's all about!
