The Lyrics
I know somebody and he lies to you
h's name's obama and I swear it's true
you can't believe what he has told to you, 'cause somebody's lying
I know somebody and I'll say his name
barack obama he brings only shame
he goes on yapping just the same, but barack is lying
so please return this bum no victory
oh please people show right victory
we know when somebody's lying
we know when somebody's lying
he stands behind the pulpit, when he speaks to you
and every word he says is so untrue
you'll cry at night if you let barack rule 'cause somebody's lying
so please return this bum no victory
oh please people show right victory
we know when somebody's lying
we know when somebody's lying
h's name's obama and I swear it's true
you can't believe what he has told to you, 'cause somebody's lying
I know somebody and I'll say his name
barack obama he brings only shame
he goes on yapping just the same, but barack is lying
so please return this bum no victory
oh please people show right victory
we know when somebody's lying
we know when somebody's lying
he stands behind the pulpit, when he speaks to you
and every word he says is so untrue
you'll cry at night if you let barack rule 'cause somebody's lying
so please return this bum no victory
oh please people show right victory
we know when somebody's lying
we know when somebody's lying

This is a 90s' song and you spelt his surname wrong. plus the pacing ain't too good
Yeah, well, the plural of something doesn't require an apostrophe...so you're not one to judge. Unless you're meaning for your name to be "mister 1 is." Also, maybe you should spell "spelled" correctly before you criticize others for their spelling.
Au contraire... "spelt" is a valid word; it is indeed a past tense form of the verb "to spell". And it is also acceptable to use an apostrophe to show the plural of numbers or individual letters.
