The Lyrics

Political satire at it's best
Oh, ba ba ba ba bama ran
Oba ba ba ba bama ran

Obama man, I'm not a fan
Obama ran
You've got them voting and a-polling
Voting and a-polling
Obama ran, Oba ba
Ba bama ran

Went to Iraq, wanna bring em' back
Sure Obama ran, and his name is Barack
That Obama man - don't bomb Iran
Steal their votes
You've got the voting and a-polling
(oh! oh!)
Voting and a-polling
Obama ran Oba ba
Ba ba ba ba black sheep

Oba ba ba ba bama ran
Oba ba ba ba bama ran

Obama ran, I'm not a fan
Obama ran
You've got them voting and a-polling
Voting and a-polling
Obama ran Oba ba
Ba bama ran

(let's vote now!)

He lied to Peggy Sue
He lied to Betty Lou
He lied to you too!
And we know he just won't do
Obama ran, Obama ran
Be a man
You've got them voting and a-polling
Voting and a-polling
Obama ran Oba ba
Ba bama ran

You've got them voting and a-polling
Voting and a-polling
Obama ran Oba ba
Ba bama ran

You've got em' voting, you're appalling
Speakin' and a-stalling
Obama ran ba ba
Ba bama ran

One more time
You've got them voting and a-polling
Voting and a-polling
Obama ran
Woah
You've got them votin'
You've got them pollin'
Oh, Obama ran

Idealogical political parody is seldom funny, as the parodist (whether left or right leaning) usually cannot detach themselves sufficiently from their feelings to be truly funny to all readers. Such parodies come across as annoying at the least or hateful at the worst. This one was annoying. However, the pacing seemed fine and the overall was not bad. I did like the incorporation of the girls names into the spoof. 5-2-4.

Have to admit you put me off with your wonderfully immodest and grammatically incorrect intro sentence... but no, this isn't particularly successful satire, and if you want satire at its best, buy Spaff's "Politicked Off", which most definitely is.

Not funny, not truthful, not worth more than all ones. Even Obama would not answer "Yes we can" to the question, "Can you do better than this?"

Wonderful and hilarious! Why didn't I think of that? Only a leftist could get offended by this parody. Ha! Ha! Ha!
