Doesn't strictly adhere to the facts, but then the meter's off, the humor's outta whack and the spellings baad-- be assured of consistency here!
Oprabama!
by John McCain
Oooo-prah so ya' won't let Sarah Palin on your show?
You'll host Hillary and Nancy P.--even Lindsay Lohan still on blow!
Ooooo-prah oh yeah, 'round these parts they claim that you're The Queen
So why must you fight with Mrs. Right-- and throw your weight around the scene?
You said "Sarah: Talk to the hand!" [Oh no!]
'Cause the dude you've bin laudin’s more tanned?!
And so I'll saaaay...
Yeeow!
Ten Gayle Marys,
Hey!
Each night I'm prayin'
Like Fox, you'll be 'fair n' balanced'
Bar—she owns ya!
O-P-R-A-B-A-M-A
OPRABAMA!!

"you've bin laudin'"... niiiiiiice. Very niiiiiice. :-D Frankly, I'm wild about this and a little sad it was so short! Keep churnin' em out, TJC.
Oprah is evil incarnate. Nice job.
Good combination of words. Oprah is a celebrity suck up.
Very funny, with many clever puns
What EmiLoca, John Barry, 2Eagle, and AFW said, and "more tanned" was ROFL genius! And as Mr. Barry pointed out, my show is much more fair and balanced. We showcase all points of view. In fact, I should invite all politicians on, they fit the show perfectly! Great idea! Thanks, TJC!
Good stuff, particularly the "bin laudin" verse. Interestingly, a parody titled "Oprah-Bama" (completely different lyrics) appeared today on the Capitol Steps web site (http://www.capsteps.com/).
I agree. Excellent song.
Emi-Thanks, would'a liked to do the entire OS but burned out my remaining 50 oarody-capable brain cells on this one. John- Thanks and with Oprah there's lots'a 'carne' in the carnate, eh? 2Eagle- Gracias! AFW- Appreciate it! Jerry- Thanks for the V/C and lord knows I'll be in your corner should anyone (however unlikely that may be) say that anything's unbalanced about your show-- And John- Appreciate the comment and I'm going to check out that Cap-Steps link pronto...
LOL
