The Lyrics
Was Gore's sale of foundering network, 'Currents', to Al Jazeera controversial? Hell no—'twas... Kismet!
YouTube Allan Sherman version
Al Jazeera paid Gore lots’a lyra
For his network, ‘Current’, what the buck?!
First Gore sells us 'carbon creds’
Now it’s Sheiks of Oil he beds!
(Carbon creds!) Sheiks he beds!
(Carbon creds!) Sheiks he beds!
Oh oh oh ohhhh!
Al Gore fears a - Fox News kind’a smear’a
Or some Lance-like interview with ‘O’
So he spins it, “ ‘zeer’s a pal!”
“Who don’t love us A-rab ‘Als’?”
(‘zeer’s a pal!) A-rab ‘Als’!
(Carbon creds!) Sheiks he beds!
Oh oh oh ohhh!
Some folks jeer a toehold for Jazeera
"Lets the camel’s nose into our tent!"
They’ve a point, ‘Als’ *should* be feared:
Sharpton, Roker, Green and ‘Weird’!
(Als are feared!) -Green and ‘Weird’!
(‘zeer’s a pal!) A-rab ‘Als’!
(Carbon creds!) Sheiks he beds!
Oh oh oh ohhh!
‘zeera’s fans a’ ‘dinijad and Danza
‘Jew’s the Boss’ TV show’s in the works
Then ‘Survivor: Abu Ghraib’
Followed by ‘The Wives I’ve Spayed’
(Abu Ghraib!) ‘Wives I’ve Spayed’!
(Als are feared) Green and ‘Weird’!
(‘zeer’s a pal!) A-rab ‘Als’!
(Carbon creds!) Sheiks he beds!
Oh oh oh ohhh!
Played a ‘hugger’, now the Earth Gore buggers
Flies his blimp to Starbuck’s just for tea
Then he sends the yachts he owns
Off to find some Grey Poupon!
(Yachts he owns!) Grey Poupon!
(Abu Ghraib!) ‘Wives I’ve Spayed’!
(Als are feared!) -Green and ‘Weird’!
(‘zeer’s a pal!) A-rab ‘Als’!
(Carbon creds!) Sheiks he beds!
Oh oh oh ohhh!
Al ditched Tipper, now he’s dating strippers
Stocks his harem from the Hooters chain!
Since he’s bookish, limp n’ fat
Albert’s gals just sit n’ chat!
(Limp n’ fat!) Paid to chat!
(Yachts he owns!) Grey Poupon!
(Abu Ghraib!) ‘Wives I’ve Spayed’!
(Als are feared!) -Green and ‘Weird’!
(‘zeer’s a pal!) A-rab ‘Als’!
(Carbon creds!) Sheiks he beds!
Oh oh oh ohhh!
Al phoned ‘zeera something from his Leer a’
“Sorry boys, your ‘network’ bucks you’ve blown...”
[~slow~]
“I invented inter-nets—
They don’t work in minarets!”
(Internets!) Minarets!
[~slowly speed up~]
(Limp n’ fat!) Paid to chat!
(Yachts he owns!) Grey Poupon!
(Abu Ghraib) ‘Wives I’ve Spayed’!
(Als are feared) -Green and ‘Weird’!
( ‘zeer’s a pal!) Arab ‘Als’!
(Carbon creds!) Sheiks he beds!
Oh oh oh ohhh!
Al Jazeera - just got bought by OWN!

This is funny. Like the line about internet not working in minaret.
Al gets treasure.
TJC - A memorable parody of a memorable parody...Allan Sherman influenced many of us. Never shake thy "Gorey" locks at me. ;D
So many LOL lines. Inspired greatness!
It's been said that they already have another reality show lined up: "Here Comes Honey Abu".
What you don't know is the real reason for the deal: In return, the Middle-East nations must give him a 50% discount on aviation fuel, so that he can continue to fly his private luxury plane around the world to tell us all to conserve fossil fuels and carbon emissions. His jet is so fancy that all of the in-flight movies are p*rn, and instead of flight attendants, there are beautiful masseuses on board, always nude, which is why it's called a Leerjet instead of the less-elite Learjet.
TMGLTM, hilarious all the way through, right up to the killer ending! 555, and, uh, sorry about that plug for moi's "My Sweet Lord" parody in the T-nym.

Egregiously excessive fossil-fuel guzzling, bloated n' blotchy, hyper-hypocritical thanks out to all:
Gracias to Patrick and JAB.
OMR - You've got me pegged! A.S. was my/the original Weird Al!
Rex - Thanks, appreciate it!
L.C.G'd: LOL Honey Abu--how did I miss that?! You're probably right-on about that guy and his private jet (talk about Snakes on a Plane!). Never trust a guy who takes credit for someone else's work (ie, the internet and the Green movement) And thanks for the gentle Lear/Leer spelling hint!
