SYMPATHY FOR A ZERO

SYMPATHY FOR A ZERO
Sung to the tune of SYMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL (no disrespect meant for Mick & Keith)

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of stealth and race
I've been around for a short, short time
Hid my past at the fastest pace

I cheer on the ground where Jesus Christ
Had his moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Israel
was thrown into a murderous fate

Pleased to meet you
Hope is my refrain
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my change

I slunk from the troops in Afghanistan
and Iran when they tried for a change
Filled the Czars they’re so sinister
Constitution screamed in vain

I stole the banks
with a Chairman’s rank
When depression raged
And the Fed it stank

Pleased to meet you
Hope is my refrain, oh yeah
Ah, what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my change, oh yeah
(wee wee, wee wee)

I watched with glee
When my unions reigned
Ruined the ten decades
Of the cars they made
(who who, who who)

I shouted out,
"Who killed the Energy?"
When after all
It was cap and fee
(who who, who who)

Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of stealth and race
And I laid tax for carbon doors
That get killed before they reached Bombay
(woo woo, who who)

Pleased to meet you
Hope is my refrain, oh yeah
(who who)
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my change, oh yeah, get down, baby
(guess who, guess who)

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But what's confusing you
Is just the nature of my game
(woo woo, who who)

Just as all my crap is so criminal
And all my motives feints
As heads is tails
Just call me Lucifer
'Cause I'm in need of huge restraint
(wee wee, wee wee)

So if you beat me
Have some brutality
Have some viciousness, put me in chains
(yea who)
Use all your saved hostilities
Or I'll lay your soul to waste, mmm yeah
(woo woo, woo woo)

Pleased to meet you
Are you sick of my refrain, mmm yeah
(who who)
But what angers you
Is the nature of my change, mmm mean it, get down
(woo woo, woo woo)

Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
(woo woo)

Tell me baby, Hussein’s my name
Call me Barry, can ya guess my name
Tell me baby, Barak’s my name
I tell you one time, you're to blame

Oh, who
woo, woo
Woo, who
Woo, woo
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Oh, yeah

What's my name
Tell me, baby, Barak’s my name
Tell me, sweetie, what's my name

Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Woo, who, who
Oh, yeah
Woo woo
Woo woo

I'd love to go on, this only scratches the surface

While I could pick nits over some of your rhymes, you’ve definitely chosen the perfect song for Hussein. Very nicely done.

[BOBTHENAILER]

did my best to fit it to the original and still keep to the theme.

[BOBTHENAILER]

The original lyrics to this song inspired me to rework it to fit the despicable imposter who inhabits penn ave. T me, this song perfectly captures the evil he represents now and as was depicted in the original lyrics.

Thank You Satan 1:51

[SierraWasp]

Masterful!!! My favorite lyric: "(wee wee, wee wee)"

Remember when he said everybody was gittin all "wee weed off in Washington?" (10-4 on the weed!!!)

[Liz]

Very apropos.
