Parody Written by:

The Lyrics
Written in 1996 about then House Speaker Newt Gingrich, whose Republican freshmen attacked federal agencies they disliked through budget cuts
Gavels ring, tempers flaring
G.O.P. plans are daring
As lawmakers fight
The tilt to the Right
Doesn't Mr. Gingrich understand?
"Go away!" is a moot word
Here to stay is the Newt bird
He sings a mean song
'Bout things that are wrong
Doesn't Mr. Gingrich understand?
On the TV, Gingrich is a showman
But he's nothing more than just a clown
He is having fun just being a showman
Until all his opponents knock him down
Later on, they'll conspire
As they plan who to fire
They're planning a raid on budgets we've made
Doesn't Mr. Gingrich understand?
On the TV, Gingrich is a showman
He just stands there jumping up and down
He'll say, "Are you with us?"
We'll say, "No, man!"
But he'll re-write the laws while he's in town
Later on, they'll conspire
As they plan who to fire
They're planning a raid on budgets they've made
Doesn't Mr. Gingrich understand?
G.O.P. plans are daring
As lawmakers fight
The tilt to the Right
Doesn't Mr. Gingrich understand?
"Go away!" is a moot word
Here to stay is the Newt bird
He sings a mean song
'Bout things that are wrong
Doesn't Mr. Gingrich understand?
On the TV, Gingrich is a showman
But he's nothing more than just a clown
He is having fun just being a showman
Until all his opponents knock him down
Later on, they'll conspire
As they plan who to fire
They're planning a raid on budgets we've made
Doesn't Mr. Gingrich understand?
On the TV, Gingrich is a showman
He just stands there jumping up and down
He'll say, "Are you with us?"
We'll say, "No, man!"
But he'll re-write the laws while he's in town
Later on, they'll conspire
As they plan who to fire
They're planning a raid on budgets they've made
Doesn't Mr. Gingrich understand?
