The Lyrics

i'm hillary the great, i am
hillary the great...i am...i am
i have tarried at the planet's top floor
folks been buried when they tried before
not everyone is a hillary (hillary !)
to try it would be silly, if you can't (you can't!)
i'm a mountain man...i'm hillary
hillary the great, i am

mountain's cursed...i was the first !

i'm hillary the great, i am
hillary the great...i am...i am
i ain't scaredy of that mountain no more
it was hairy, cause the paths are poor
but it was fun for sir hillary (hillary!)
the journey was a dilly of a plan (nice plan!)
i'm a mountain man...i'm hillary
hillary the great, i am

(guitar solo by tenzing norgay)

i'm hillary the great, i am
hillary the great...i am...i am
some are wary when its time to explore
sure its scary, but i know the score
so climb this peak like sir hillary (hillary!)
its bigger than a hilly pile of sand (its grand!)
i'm a mountain man...i'm hillary
hillary the great, i am

H-I-L-L-Y
hillary (hillary!)
hillary (hillary!)
hillary the great...i am..i am
hillary the great, i am

You deserve the highest votes possible for this one, just because it's there.

I'm trying to decide if this is Hillary Clinton or not.

I confess - I'm from the H.Clinton school of assumers - lovely work alvin, honoring the fine achievements of my antipodean ancestor - 555 (and a Clinton one would be funny)

NO ONE EXPECTS

Oops, I hit "Submit Comments" too early there... I was going to make a stupid joke about how no one expects Hilary Clinton, like Monty Python's "NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition", but alas, the moment passed .... Great parody, alvin, and yes, I, too, was expecting Hilary Clinton...yes...Hilary Clinton... Her chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Her two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Her *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to---Her *four*...no... *Amongst* her weapons.... Amongst her weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.... I'll come in again!

"Planet's top floor" - A clever and appropriate tribute.
Hilary Swank - February 13, 2005 - Report this comment
I won the Acadamy Award for Best Actress in 2000 and am nominated again this year. Why do so many people mistakenly expect this to be about that "other Hillary," but not about me?
Senator Hillary Clinton - February 13, 2005 - Report this comment
This is the one I like, it's about me and not those other boring Hillarys..

Thank you for NOT going the obvious route with the last rightfully-elected First Lady.
