The Lyrics
President Barack Obama sings his version...
This country at my feet,
Republicans to beat,
I sit a King
Waiting, my time to bide
Won elections with lies
Behind a smile does hide,
A do-nothing!
My native country? please,
Devoid of Hawaii,
I don't discuss
It gives the REPs a chill,
Birth Certificate's not real
I went through an ordeal
Was such a fuss!
Overreaching with ease,
Obamacare high fees
So many wrongs
DEMs know I'm a fake,
Their freedoms I do take
Trillions spent on waste
They all were conned!
I lack transparency,
Killing democracy,
The pain I bring
My acts aren't justified
The public's mystified
But I just beam with pride
I sit a King!!!
Now bow as the Republic goes under by 2016!
Republicans to beat,
I sit a King
Waiting, my time to bide
Won elections with lies
Behind a smile does hide,
A do-nothing!
My native country? please,
Devoid of Hawaii,
I don't discuss
It gives the REPs a chill,
Birth Certificate's not real
I went through an ordeal
Was such a fuss!
Overreaching with ease,
Obamacare high fees
So many wrongs
DEMs know I'm a fake,
Their freedoms I do take
Trillions spent on waste
They all were conned!
I lack transparency,
Killing democracy,
The pain I bring
My acts aren't justified
The public's mystified
But I just beam with pride
I sit a King!!!
Now bow as the Republic goes under by 2016!

Spot-on pacing and a good (albeit short) list of gripes against the King!
Just what we need, more angry political commentary! I mean "parody"!
Not a fair comment as I parody my own Republican Party (lots of material) as well as Indies...
You think we will make it to 2016? Sounds optimistic to me.
