Seems timely on the eve of destruction..."but today I'm still just a bill"...
I’ve been thinking about that song ever since I heard about Louise Slaughter.
Classic.
New 2010 updated Progressive Version:
“I’m not even a bill, you don’t get to see me until after Nanzi Pelozi wishes me true! Slaughterhouse Rock!”
This needs a 2010 Obama update....
From when cartoons were only on Saturday...
Man, I sure hope the current Bill doesn’t want become law or we are all screwed!!!
Please Bill, just stay a bill!
this one rocks too... the preamble... i was required to memorize this in the 7th grade!

I would love to see congress Republicans stand out on the capitol steps and sing this song. Would be a total hoot.
I came back with "To be clear... Madrassas House Rock."
I’m An Amendment to Be - From The Simpsons
I’m an amendment to be, yes an amendment to be,
and I’m hopin’ that they’ll ratify me.
There’s a lot of flag burners who have got too much freedom.
I wanna make it legal for policemen to beat ‘em,
cause there’s limits to our liberties.
‘Least I hope and pray that there are,
cause those liberal freaks go too far.
kid: Well why can’t we just make a law against flag burning?
Amendment: Because that law would be unconstitutional.
But if we changed the Constitution...
kid: Then we could make all sorts of crazy laws!
Amendment: Now you’re catching on!
Bart: What the hell is this?
Lisa: It’s one of those campy 70’s throwbacks that appeals to Generation-X’ers.
Bart: We need another Vietnam to thin out their ranks a little.
Kid: What if people say you’re not good enough to be in the Constitution?
Amendment (singing):
Then I’ll crush all opposition to me,
and I’ll make Ted Kennedy pay.
If he fights back, I’ll say that he’s gay.
Congressman: Good news, Amendment! They ratified ya! You’re in the U.S. Constitution.
Amendment: Oh yeah! Door’s open, boys.
My girls are doing this for their school play. They know all about bills, conjunctions, etc.
great stuff
