Parody Song Title:

"Obama Sings: Where Was I Born?"

Parody Written by:

Ralph E. Shaffer

The Lyrics

An Arizona sheriff and an anti-Obama book refused to accept the president's long form birth certificate as genuine. Here's how our singing president should have answered them, in song.
Where was I born?
What am I hiding?
Why can't I stop
The critics chiding?

I didn't start this silly
Hullabaloo.
What stops the birthers?
I wish I knew.

Where was I born?
In Honolulu.
But Donald Trump
Thinks I'm a Zulu.

I've given my long form
What else can I do?
I wasn't born
to fool you.
