The Lyrics
This song was written in 1968 by Walter Marks.I fear putting this on the Internet. If George W. sees this, I fear he will be singing it every morning in the mirror when he shaves!
I'm always right.
I'm NEVER wrong.
Ev'ry decision I make is fine -- they all play along.
The presidency!
The presidency!
The President? ME!! That's who I AM!!!
I'll never kick.
I'll always survive.
President Cheney? No? Then make SURE that I stay ALIVE!!!
You didn't pick me.
Votes didn't come free.
You'll be paying for each one sir and ma'am.
I told many lies.
They got me success.
Not bad for a guy who's not on the ball.
2004's bound,
To bring me success.
Rigged voting machines will confirm ME in the FALL!!
The Bushes will own,
The presidency.
We'll make sure that Neil and Jeb and Marvin will all follow me!!!!
The Bush Dynasty!!
The Bush family tree!!
This plan'll fly!! We'll do it or die!! The Bush dynasty!!!
musical interlude
The Bushes will own,
The presidency.
We'll make sure that Neil and Jeb and Marvin will all follow ME!!
The Bush Dynasty!!
The Bush family tree!!
This plan'll fly!! We'll do it or die!! The Bush dynasty!!!
I'm NEVER wrong.
Ev'ry decision I make is fine -- they all play along.
The presidency!
The presidency!
The President? ME!! That's who I AM!!!
I'll never kick.
I'll always survive.
President Cheney? No? Then make SURE that I stay ALIVE!!!

Good one Jude. I guess not to many people know this song, but it's a standard. Anyway don't write off the Dems on '04 too quickly. We'll see what happens.
Great pacing, Jude - I know the original song, and you NAILED the pacing like a pro! Overall the parody is a stunningly satirical political stab at the would-be Bush dynasty, so its overall effect is strong and clear. I can't say it's all that funny, though, since even joking about a "Bush Dynasty" gives me the creeps, but it's not a humor-flop either..... so here's a 5-3-5, and congratulations for a very well-crafted political parody.
I liked this one.
