Ode to Obama

I have penned an ode to Barack Obama which, if not fully canonizing just how wonderful he really is, at least does a passable job of praising him without devolving into flights of fancy like some people have done lately.

It’s to the tune of “Little Drummer Boy.”

Come, they said to me,
Come vote for Barack!

He is the man who’ll win,
Come vote for Barack!

I cast my vote for him,
My vote for Barack!

He’ll lift us up from Sin,
So vote for Barack!
Vote for Barack!
Vote for Barack!

He can solve Iraq,
So vote for Barack!

Peace in our times we’ll find,
If we vote for Barack!

The Clintons are all gone,
So vote for Barack!

McCain’s a toothless thug,
So vote for Barack!
Vote for Barack!
Vote for Barack!

I cast my vote for him,
In several states!

My granny votes for him,
She died in ‘78!

If he doesn’t win then we will
Take to the streets!

Democracy only works,
If we get a piece!
We get a piece!
We get a piece!

If you’re not racist,
Then vote for Barack!

He’s got the holy vibe,
So vote for Barack!

It’s not every day,
You vote for your god!

Barack is just that great,
So go shut your yob!
Vote for Barack!
Vote for Barack!

Do you understand?
You’ll vote for Barack!

Or I’ll break your back!
