The Lyrics
White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs recently responded to criticism of the Obama Administration by liberal Democrats and the "professional left" with a most interesting series of comments. "I hear those people saying he's like George Bush. Those people ought to be drug tested." "They will be satisfied when we have Canadian healthcare and we've eliminated the Pentagon. That's not reality." Within hours, Gibbs was trying to distance himself from his own words, describing them as "inartful." Ya think? ;D
What drugs are you guys on?
Why does it trouble you?
How dare you bums compare The Chosen One
To George Double-U!
"Professional left " folks -
Why can't you see?
Your de-mands are too much!
"That's not reality."
You want Canadian Care
And scrap the Pentagon.
Your words of fight sound like the right.
Your talking heads drone on!
We've moved the country left
No matter what you say!
We've kept our promise to
Transform the U.S.A.
(Instrumental interlude for the first half of song)
Good friends, this is no time
For anger and demands.
Just play the game, give Bush the blame,
Then we'll enact your plans.
But while you rant and rave
About our policy,
Don't EVER call Obama
George Bush Forty-Three!
On behalf of some parody writers, I sincerely hope such outbursts from Gibbs are a temporary condition. ;D

I like how you turned this song into a parody about the gov't, and it seems like this would be a hard song to fit a parody into so good job.
We're on opposite net sides..but I'll serve you fives...very well constructed
Very well done, Ribber! Certainly not 'bush league" parody writing...
Outstanding spoof, but wouldn't it be better for parodists if Gibbs' outbursts were a permanent condition?
Thanks all! AFW - Perhaps that's why some people are demanding "net neutrality". ;D
Clever stuff, OMR!
For once, I think Gibbs told the truth, in this case about the Far Left pressure groups. Obama has been unable to change Bush 43 policies in Iraq, Afghanistan, Gitmo. He knows radic libs won't vote aginst him. 555
