The Lyrics

Here's why you should vote for me
I am a business man
And it was my destiny
Before my life began
Clearly, I am heaven sent
Meant to be your pres-i-dent
So put aside all sullen re-sent-ment
You think this is something I'd invent?
Absurd!
Mitt is just a four letter word

When things went south in Salt Lake
They searched through all the names
For me it was a piece of cake
To save their stupid games
My experience unlimited and overfed
No one could question what I said
To a man they followed where I led
Opponents ducked their heads and fled
When they heard
Me say that Mitt is just a four letter word

Next up back in Boston
The senate as my goal
I nearly beat Ted Kennedy
And almost lost my soul
Just like Daddy George before
I ran and won for governor
Passed health care reform I now deplore
Now I know there's nothing more
Absurd
And I am just a four letter word

Now when all the chips are down
And push has come to shove
I can only think in terms of me
And daddy, George, "the guv"
Who sat me down and told me man-to-man
When I was young back home in Mich-ig-an
Don't expect someone to lend a hand
And don't fast during Ramadan
When you marry make sure her name is Ann
If you must make war do it with Iran
But don't expect a Dem to be a fan
When speaking Spanish always wear a tan
Otherwise you'll look too pale and wan
When in Rome do as a Ro-man
And don't add rhymes just because you can
Let's see what 's left, well there's always van-dan-lan-san-pan-stan-nan
To win in life you have to have a plan
Otherwise you're just an also-ran
In-TERRED
And you'll be just a four letter word.
