Obama’s In the House While the House Burns It Down
—with apologies to Warren Zevon
He had the dope till it all got smoked
He kept his promises till they all got broke
He sat and drank from the kool-aid cup
He bad-mouthed the banks as his money built up
He saw the carnage when his party went down
But he’ll stay in the house while he burns it down
He’s looking old and he’s turning gray
Half the population is just sure he’s gay
He’ll sit and pout ‘til he gets his way
Then he will claim that he saved the day
He wishes he could golf on the White house grounds
And he’ll stay in the house while he burns it down
Chorus:
Obama’s in the house while the house burns down
He can’t stand it when his critics keep hanging around
He wishes congress would get out of town
And he’ll stay in the house while he burns it down
Oops. there is an extraneous “it” in my song title..
Sorry about that.
