The Lyrics
Can 200,000 Berliners who heard BHO be wrong? Luckily, they can't vote in the USA! JFK and RWR spoke only to West Berliners. See http://ingeb.org/songs/mybonnie.html for the original words.
Sly Barack flies over the ocean;
Obama flies over to see
If he can stir Germans' emotion
Like Reagan or John Kennedy.
Refrain:
Swing back on track!
Bring back what Ronnie could be, to me.
Barack has knack,
But he is no John Kennedy.
Tours might help his ratings to billow
Among left-wing voters; he's said,
"Don't fight with our enemies; I'll show
How speeches bring world peace instead."
[Refrain]
"Elitists of Europe surround me;
To Socialist leaders I'll steer.
I'll beat that old John McCain soundly,
And bring our troops home in a year."
[Refrain]
I know he's been spreading the notion
That growth of world government's free.
His sojourns have caused a commotion
That kings lack, dictators envy.
[Refrain]
Obama flies over to see
If he can stir Germans' emotion
Like Reagan or John Kennedy.
Refrain:
Swing back on track!
Bring back what Ronnie could be, to me.
Barack has knack,
But he is no John Kennedy.
Tours might help his ratings to billow
Among left-wing voters; he's said,
"Don't fight with our enemies; I'll show
How speeches bring world peace instead."
[Refrain]
"Elitists of Europe surround me;
To Socialist leaders I'll steer.
I'll beat that old John McCain soundly,
And bring our troops home in a year."
[Refrain]
I know he's been spreading the notion
That growth of world government's free.
His sojourns have caused a commotion
That kings lack, dictators envy.
[Refrain]
If you sing this in public and people drop C-notes, keep them; but drop an E-note to .
