Obama's Lament
By: Wayne Brown
They say I'm not a citizen being born in Indonesia
But I claim Hawaii or any place to please ya
I won this election and I ain't about the quit
And you ain't never seein' my real birth certificate
Yeah I cut my teeth on Chicago-style politics
We'll stab you in the back, just one of many tricks
And now that I am elected to the Presidential Rail
It seems only natural my Senate seat I'd sell
Spendin’ all money, don’t have a need to fudge it
Open government checkbook, ain’t got no budget
America’s future isn’t lookin’ so nice or rosy
Thanks to me, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi
I don’t want no flags painted on my airplane
I much prefer my own decals and bear no shame
And you can forget me with my hand over my heart
All that patriotism and stuff, I do not choose to be part
Don’t come ‘round criticizing my actions again and again
I don’t like damn critics for my skin is kind of thin
And if you persist in it and push me really hard
I’ll get Reverend Jackson to play the race card
I got me a chief of staff slippery than a slope
There aren't many things with which he can't cope
He's helped move things along just a little faster
Subscribing to the policy - never waste a good disaster
The CIA was sayin’ that I couldn’t shut down Gitmo
Them poor boys down ‘nar ain’t got no where to go
But close it I will, I got me a very good plan
I will free them up to again terrorize this land
I finally rammed through Clinton’s health overhauls
Strong-armed it with my comrade Congressional
Though Americans don’t want change from the norm
We now have us comprehensive medical reform
The black oil keeps rolling off the ocean floor low
I blame BP’s inability to stem the ghastly flow
We need yet another change from this norm
America needs comprehensive energy reform
The illegal ones are coming from the land to the south
I offer no help but to run my promising little mouth
Arizona needs to just quit it and let the man run the show
Give them illegals the amnesty, some welfare, some dough
I blame ol' BP for the timing of this oil spill
It works out perfect to pass my Green Energy bill
And if Arizona's immigration law is illegally born
I'll get myself comprehensive immigration reform
The war on terror was going way too well in Afghan
We might just win if our forces stuck to that plan
But let’s not be too hasty with conclusions foregone
You haven’t yet read an item in this month’s Rolling Stone
Israel and Britain seem a little bit more than upset
You would think that I have hedged on a bet
But their mouths will really fall down to the floor
When I show them the future my plan has in store
Community organizer is where I gained my knowledge
Learned the virtues of socialism while in days of college
Brilliant lawyer, former senator, with a Muslim attitude
And in case you haven’t noticed, I think a little shrewd
My socialist buddies create controversy and clash
The ones who insist on just one more public Bush bash
And when I find blaming Bush to be at a loss
Well then I try to nail old Dick Cheney to the cross
The media loves me except that damn old Fox News
All their little stories just give me the old blues
I’ve made it known clearly that I don’t like their guff
If they got any brains they’ll soon quit all that stuff
Everyone agrees that I have made some history
Rising to this office, a young black man like me
But my bubble's been burst and it causes me contention
Tthey say the first black President was really Bill Clinton
I went up to Canada where the G20 meet
Everybody was upset, took to rioting in the street
When I said “keep spending” they were all about to choke
They claim that policy is what got them all broke
My public approval rating is in an all time miserable low
Looks like some of voters are more than ready for me to go
But I got two more years yet so they better think twice
I just might turn this place into a socialist paradise
