The Lyrics
O dutiful for specious lies,
To "fairly" spread the pain.
Thine Ivory Towers socialize
Across the fruited plain!
Obamica! Obamica!
When did we lose our way?
You’ve false pretense for innocents
And fear of those who pray!
O dutiful or so it seems.
Why 's courage taken flight?
You’ve blurred the line 'tween right and wrong
And HOPE instead of might.
Obamica! Obamica!
Thy wilting bravery
Turns God's license to impotence.
Thy freedom isn't free!
O dutiful for bleeting sheep
Demanding victimhood.
You slay the rights of Common Man
To serve the "common good."
Obamia! Obamica!
Why forfeit Liberty?
Thy promise fades in shadows dark,
And woe's cast down on thee.
{instrumental bridge}
Obamia! Obamica!
Who did we pick to lead?
An iron fist collectivist
Who'll tax 'em till they bleed.
An iron fist collectivist
Naive in word and deed.
To "fairly" spread the pain.
Thine Ivory Towers socialize
Across the fruited plain!
Obamica! Obamica!
When did we lose our way?
You’ve false pretense for innocents
And fear of those who pray!
O dutiful or so it seems.
Why 's courage taken flight?
You’ve blurred the line 'tween right and wrong
And HOPE instead of might.
Obamica! Obamica!
Thy wilting bravery
Turns God's license to impotence.
Thy freedom isn't free!
O dutiful for bleeting sheep
Demanding victimhood.
You slay the rights of Common Man
To serve the "common good."
Obamia! Obamica!
Why forfeit Liberty?
Thy promise fades in shadows dark,
And woe's cast down on thee.
{instrumental bridge}
Obamia! Obamica!
Who did we pick to lead?
An iron fist collectivist
Who'll tax 'em till they bleed.
An iron fist collectivist
Naive in word and deed.

Good rhyme scheme and well executed. So long as his administration gives some more budget to the parks and forests, I'll have a job, so I'll have less reason to complain.
wow.. someone else not impressed with the anointed one?? or should I say annoying one
5's for the parody, but not surprised by the 1 vote with the political statement the way this site has been lately.
Well written. A lament for a great land that gave it all up for promises that can never be fulfilled.
A star is born! Welcome, Mark! Nice, new neologism for the Pres, some great syllable-matching right in the opening line. "Turns God's license to impotence / Thy freedom isn't free!" and "You slay the rights of Common Man /To serve the "common good." just nailed it. ("whom" did we pick... lol) 555

what I'd write if I could write that well. he's a truly vengeful, devious human being who's only in office due to the votes of the 'ignorant- American community'.
