The Lyrics
this is a plea from the new Tory Leader D Cameron to Rupert Murdoch for his support...
What have I got to do to make you back me
What have I got to do to make you care
If I don't have you they're bound to sack me
You know I'll hardly last a year
What do I do to make you want me
What have I got to do to be heard
I remember the day it'll always haunt me
when Tony clinched that deal ..gave you his word
It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more and more absurd
It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Oh it seems to me
That we can make a deal you have my word
Repeat chorus
What have I got to do to make you want me
What have I got to do to make you care
I remember the day it'll always haunt me
What have I got to do
What have I got to do
oh we can make a deal you have my word
What have I got to do to make you care
If I don't have you they're bound to sack me
You know I'll hardly last a year
What do I do to make you want me
What have I got to do to be heard
I remember the day it'll always haunt me
when Tony clinched that deal ..gave you his word
It's sad, so sad
It's a sad, sad situation
And it's getting more and more absurd
It's sad, so sad
Why can't we talk it over
Oh it seems to me
That we can make a deal you have my word
Repeat chorus
What have I got to do to make you want me
What have I got to do to make you care
I remember the day it'll always haunt me
What have I got to do
What have I got to do
oh we can make a deal you have my word

You could have made the same point with another EJ song, "Don't Let the Sun support Tony." But I like the way you match the melancholy theme of this OS with the melancholy situation of the Tories if the Sun endorses Blair.
John .... good point !! I just did that one 2.... thanks for the comment! ........
I'm not really privy to the content of the parody. I don't know who Tony is. But, in my opinion, you use too many of the original words in your parody. That's just lazy.
