The Lyrics
economy is down (economy is down)
and it's going to stay ( and it's going to stay)
all odumba talk ( all he does is talk)
tax the rich today ( how much will he take)
soon they will be gone ( soon they will be gone)
lower taxes to pay ( they're on their way)
now odumba's dreamin ( odumba is dreamin)
if he thinks they'll pay
soon he'll tax the church
he better not, I pray
tax the honey bees ( tax the honey bees)
for what they make today (it's the commie way)
I really like the days of old ( like the days of old)
when everybody paid ( paid what they could pay)
but odumba's dreamin (now odumba's dreamin)
if he thinks the rich will stay
---- Instrumental Interlude ----
economy is down (economy is down)

Another Obama song - but a good take on the OS - 5's from me.
In keeping with the inflationary philosophy of the Obama regime, I predict you will have more Obama songs on this site in 8 months than William Tong had Bush songs in 8 years.
Like Timmy wrote, the parody went wonderful with the OS. Really nice job, Malcolm!
Boosting you paraconomy by 555!
A week or two ago, malcolm was blasted for calling the new admin "socialist". Now comes the news that the US Govt owns General Motors, once the largest corporation on earth. Aaaah, smell the irony! ...... If that isn't a huge move toward socialism... any reason why comments not allowed at the Ed Fitz? Lotta work went into that, and some clever lines. Take this $555 for each and hide it before the Gov. finds out you have it and takes it away.
You must remember, TT my money is already "offshore" I'm a Canadian.. lol and we have higher tax rates that USA does. Sad. The most free countries in fact tie down their citizens so much with socialist policy costs that they are essentially slaves for the left huh?
O-what-a? Not very nice. While the pacing is ok, I didn't think the content was too good.
