The Lyrics
Have you ever wondered at times just what it is they do in the Federal House and Senate? We know that they are there (well, most of the time minus junkets abroad, interference in state politics and the occasional bloviating in front of a national microphone), but what exactly do they do there? Are they working for us as they constantly say, or are they laughing at us seated in their chairs of power in Washington DC? Could it possibly be that they are what or whoever they need to be to get elected while they show their true faces while in office? I tend to think that this is the case if not only because of the fact they never get anything done (except to make our lives more miserable), but some of them have been in power for so long, I doubt they serve the people. I then imagined what exactly goes on behind closed doors in the Congress, and this is the result. This is the first Kongressional Karaoke clap-along, and I assure you it will not be the last. If you are laughing, you are probably one of the seriously ripped-off voters, but if you consider this to be in poor taste, I can bet on what you do for a living... Pap - An archaic term used to denote government largesse in all of its myriad forms,from direct graft to bribes. (Reference: Lorant - The Presidency)
Sung to the tune of "Thank God I;m a Country Boy"
Thank God I'm a DC Boy!
Well, I made it to the House for two whole years!
I think I'll kick back with an icy cold beer...
I'm sure the hacks will tell me what is going on here!
Thank God I'm a DC boy!
That bill on the table, it surely means well!
But is that the stench of reform that I smell...
We'll consign the SOB to Committee Hell!
Thank God I'm a DC boy
Well,I got me a wife and a mistress to fiddle
And all of my idiot constituents to diddle
Life here is nothing but a pap-soaked riddle!
Thank God I'm a DC boy!
We haven't even kicked ourselves into high gear!
Is that the rumble of outrage I now hear?
We're safe until elections, we have naught to fear!
Thank God I'm a DC Boy!
Our lack of forward action's got the voters all enraged!
We'll appeal to our head hack, near 60 years a sage!
While another one of us is pounding a male page!
Thank God I'm a DC boy!
Well, I have a hotline and pap on the griddle
I can collect election funds from the men in the middle
As long as I dance to the tune that they fiddle!
Thank God I'm a DC boy!
Up a note...here is where the Senate takes over.....
Well, the Senate is the best place to be alive!
There's only 100 here, not 435!
There's corruption in the House, but here is where it thrives!
Thank God I'm a DC boy!
There's one Senator here in a wheel chair!
We kick him now and then to see if he's still there...
Career politicians should have you sort of scared!
Thank God I'm a DC boy!
Getting to the Senate requires hard work and spit...
As we entertain you with our press conference wit!
We're so full of ourselves , we don't realize it's shit!
Thank God I'm a DC boy!
The dinner bell rings, 100 Senators to feed!
Look in the trough, there is all the pap you need!
So what if our constituents bleed!
Thank God I'm a DC Boy!
The K street sluts brought along some more pap!
You can hear us oink and squeal as we feed upon their crap!
Lobbyists and Senators, a deadly sort of trap!
Thank God I'm a DC boy!
Well, we're beholden to our purchasers, that is for sure
If an action we take goes against all of our mores....
We dial up our bevy of K Street Whores!
Thank God I'm a DC boy!
The people are enraged at the many things we do...
We rise up from our trough to say 'Fuck You!'
You aren't rich enough to buy us so you know that you are screwed!
Thank God I'm a DC Boy!
In this land of the brave and the home of the free!
I worry that the voters may probably indict me...
But...you're too busy....drooling on your...Wii!
Yee-Haa!!!!
Thank God I'm a DC Boy!
Thank God I'm a DC Boy!
Well, I made it to the House for two whole years!

If we could only get them all together for just once and have them sing this as a chorus. But I don't imagine they can sing any better than they can economize.
