The Lyrics
My apologies for the plethora of politically-themed parodies of late, but there’s so much low-hanging fruit out there, I just can’t resist. Given all the venality, banality, insanity, and inanity surrounding us, these things just write themselves.
Dancing with the stars—
They’re his lewd friends.
His pants might rip apart
As the dude bends.
He once in Congress thundered,
But now he’s here.
Guy curtsies. “Bye,”
Hetero con.
Looking pretty light
In his poof duds
On heinie, mighty tight—
It’s rammed with poof puds.
He’ll gaily traipse to music, The Hammer,
Prancing with the stars.
Once, he’d upbraid, scold,
Playing the straight role.
The closet door’s now sprung
But—girl partner time
Makes his part decline.
Here’s Tom. . .prefers a queers’ prom. . .
Lancing from the spars.
They’re his lewd friends.
His pants might rip apart
As the dude bends.
He once in Congress thundered,
But now he’s here.
Guy curtsies. “Bye,”
Hetero con.
Looking pretty light
In his poof duds
On heinie, mighty tight—
It’s rammed with poof puds.
He’ll gaily traipse to music, The Hammer,
Prancing with the stars.
Once, he’d upbraid, scold,
Playing the straight role.
The closet door’s now sprung
But—girl partner time
Makes his part decline.
Here’s Tom. . .prefers a queers’ prom. . .
Lancing from the spars.

nice venting
Most who go on that show deserve a parody bashing; nicely done.
John: Your stuff is always good...don't apologize for grabbing material that presents itself on a silver platter. If you do, then...I'll Put A Spell On You! ;D
Nonsense-- everyone *loves* a good political parody! Glad you didn't "delay" writing this one for us. :D
Thanks, Alvin, Timmy, OMR (this means a lot coming from someone of your talent), FG.
Glad to see another punch at old Tom Tom, the so called dancer...
Thanks for punchin' out (meta-floor-ically!) that guy's televangel'elvis'esque smile!
John - Yes I agree with those who have commented above. I am glad that you did not "Delay" the writing of this spoof. Tom Tom the dancing dunce. Ha - I love this parody. Well done, indeed.
