The Lyrics
Ralph Nader's running again.....
Risin' up, back on the street
Once again, the campaign trail
Left the green party
But I'm still on tv
Just a man desperate for election
Even though I know my fate
Fun to be in there anyway
Maybe this time they'll let me in the debates
I must fight so people know I'm alive
Yeah, return of the Nader
And I'm ready to fight
Even though I really need
A haircut
Haven't combed my hair in
About fifty years
No Corvair talk 'cause it's the
Return of the Nader
Face to face, out in the heat
In my dreams, beat Bush and Kerry
They stack the odds
But still I'm out on the street
Talkin' to whoever passes by
Yeah, return of the Nader
And I'm ready to fight
Even though I really need
A haircut
Haven't combed my hair in
About fifty years
No Corvair talk 'cause it's the
Return of the Nader
Yes, my support base is few
But I hope that it's growing
I'll just be there
Now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man desperate for attention
Yeah, return of the Nader
And I'm ready to fight
Even though I really need
A haircut
Haven't combed my hair in
About fifty years
No Corvair talk 'cause it's the
Return of the Nader
Return of the Nader
Once again, the campaign trail
Left the green party
But I'm still on tv
Just a man desperate for election
Even though I know my fate
Fun to be in there anyway
Maybe this time they'll let me in the debates
I must fight so people know I'm alive
Yeah, return of the Nader
And I'm ready to fight
Even though I really need
A haircut
Haven't combed my hair in
About fifty years
No Corvair talk 'cause it's the
Return of the Nader
Face to face, out in the heat
In my dreams, beat Bush and Kerry
They stack the odds
But still I'm out on the street
Talkin' to whoever passes by
Yeah, return of the Nader
And I'm ready to fight
Even though I really need
A haircut
Haven't combed my hair in
About fifty years
No Corvair talk 'cause it's the
Return of the Nader
Yes, my support base is few
But I hope that it's growing
I'll just be there
Now I'm not gonna stop
Just a man desperate for attention
Yeah, return of the Nader
And I'm ready to fight
Even though I really need
A haircut
Haven't combed my hair in
About fifty years
No Corvair talk 'cause it's the
Return of the Nader
Return of the Nader

Very good, Phil. It has three things that I look for in a political parody, that unfortunately are lacking in most that I read: 1) It should be based in truth 2) it shouldn't be mean or slanderous 3) it should be funny. You score 5s on all of these. LOL
