Will he or won't he resign September 30th? Only his spin doctor knows for sure! ~ Pacing's a bit tricky, so I made it match this MIDI: Jaunty 'Vatican Rag' MIDI here
~
When your ‘bird’ lands in St. Paul
Hustle to your lucky stall
Scope the scene with furtive glance
Then—
Drop your pants, drop your pants, in ‘the stance’
Once you’ve got ‘those signals’ rollin’
Pray TSA ain’t patrollin’
Playin’ footsie in the men’s—
Out-reachin’ Republic-ken
Doin’ the Larry Craig ‘wag’!
If that first guy’s not so ‘brotherly’
Chances are he’s undercover-y
Waving under walls that border knees
Dude, that conduct’s called piss-orderly
When its time to spin your version
Claim you’re stalkin’ shoe-bomb Persians
Two, four, six…. ate?
Foley’s found his new troll-mate!
Busted lusting ‘lumen-airy’
Senate ‘seat’ got seminary’d
‘Rep’ got flushed—best to lie low
In—
I da’ ho! I da’ ho! Don’cha know?!
When one’s caught in men’s rooms trystin’
Just stick to: “I’m Methodistin’”
You’ll need a vacation
From, uh… ‘Meat The Nation’
And from ‘headlining’ those rags!
MSP? Dude, ineffectual—
SFO’s more metrosexual
San Fran’s airport’s not so scandaly
More accepting of glad-handery
There they rarely call sex squalid
Here the stalls are *much* more stolid
You scored tricks mate— [ x 3 on MIDI ]
Pole’sters say, “Dude, ab-dick-ate”!
Homophobic in your voting
Irony—or weird self-loathing?
Com-mit-ting ‘Pa-tri-ot Acts’
In—
Stretchy slacks, stretchy slacks, over chaps!
Back to Spudsville, press attackin’
Romney says: “No coming backin’”
—Caught from potty seat a—
—case of gonner’rhea—
“I got that urge again
to join the clergy, then
$hit like this won’t ‘raise red flags’!”

The best of Lerher crossed with the best John Barry poetic-stylings makes a great TJC Topicalk Parody. 555
Absolutely Fantastic, likely the best of the day. . ."SFO’s more metrosexual" was an unexpected an well placed rhyme. Though I'm not big on political parodies, this one was hard not to get a good laugh out of.
great rhyme schemes...love it
I must admit that this is better than the original song - funny as it was.
At least Larry's lovers aren't on the rag. A brilliant bash! Thanks for the nod, Agrimorfee.
This is the supreme LC parody...loaded with great lines, and D.E.'s...extra fine effort, here
Agrimorfee, BAD, alvin, 2Eagle, John and AFW... thanks so much guys... this one was actually fun to play around with and with material like LC....its hard, er, difficult, to go wrong!
Utterly brilliant - The OS is one of my favourite songs, period, so I wouldn't go quite as far as 2Eagle, but I hope we'll see this in SOTM.
I loved this!
Thanks Phil! Its one of my favs too... its just so gal durn jaunty! Oh, and if I wasn't submitting same day as writing perchance it would have hit me.... title should'a been the Larry Craig *Shag*! / Thank you PMS-- much appreciated...
