"Close To You"

Original Performer:

The Carpenters

Parody Song Title:

"W"

Parody Written by:

Bubba

The Lyrics

Pronounce the "W" fully, as duh-bul-you, and it follows the original pacing.
Why do doves often shed a tear
Anytime you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
W

Why do bombs fall down from the sky
When Saddam they do spy?
Soon you'll see Iraqis free
W

On the day that you was born, your parents got together
And decided they would name you W
And they got together once again
And made a little Jebediah too

That is why Democrats all frown
Every time you're in town
Just like me, they long to be
W

Jeb Bush's name is not Jebediah, it's John Ellis Bush. "JEB" is a nickname from that monogram.

That's not nearly as funny, though...lol. Sorry.
