The Lyrics
Does Barack Obama really need the advantage that ACORN is illegally obtaining for him? Probably not, but the same thing could be said about Richard Nixon and whatever advantage he obtained from the 1972 Watergate break-in.
All the seven dwarfs
And Miss Tina Fey
Got signed up to vote
This election day.
Fifty seven times,
‘Til Barack had to say,
“Wow! ACORN is schemin’
To change election day.”
Barack denies he knew
He got voters this way.
It seems that no one is in charge,
It’s just like Fannie Mae.
Yes, Obama likes ACORN,
He taught them how to prey.
And now ACORN is schemin’
To steal election day.
All the leading men
From each Shakespeare play,
Got signed up to vote
From Maine to Tampa Bay;
Falstaff and Othello
Will cast votes today.
That’s how ACORN is schemin’
To change election day,
To steal election day,
To claim election day,
To own election day.
And Miss Tina Fey
Got signed up to vote
This election day.
Fifty seven times,
‘Til Barack had to say,
“Wow! ACORN is schemin’
To change election day.”
Barack denies he knew
He got voters this way.
It seems that no one is in charge,
It’s just like Fannie Mae.
Yes, Obama likes ACORN,
He taught them how to prey.
And now ACORN is schemin’
To steal election day.
All the leading men
From each Shakespeare play,
Got signed up to vote
From Maine to Tampa Bay;
Falstaff and Othello
Will cast votes today.
That’s how ACORN is schemin’
To change election day,
To steal election day,
To claim election day,
To own election day.

Albert, I don't think I've seen your name before, but thought you might be a combination of Al Gore and Dick Cheney. Anyway, I liked your parody, I really liked the very first verse. Cheers.
Perceptive comment, Royce. Thanks.
