Blues for Mr. Romney

I’ll be taking a break for a couple of weeks, but while I’m gone, here are some of Doggerelo’s greatest hits, in case you missed them first time around.

Woke up this mornin’, thinkin’ I was still ahead
Well, I woke up this mornin’, thinkin’ I was still ahead
But Rick snuck up on me, so I just went back to bed.

The polls, they must be lyin’, ‘cause I know it can’t be true

The polls they must be lyin’, ‘cause I know it just ain’t true

I been spendin’ lots of money, I’m doin’ all that I can do.

They think that Rick Santorum’s more conservative than me

Yeah, they think that Rick Santorum’s more conservative than me

But he’s a Washington insider, and that’s all he’ll ever be.

At first it was Rick Perry, who ran in front of me

The first was Gov’nor Perry, who ran in front of me

But he fumbled the debates, ‘cause he couldn’t count to three.

And then came Herman Cain, who rose up to go ahead

Oh yeah, that Herman Cain, somehow he got ahead

But then his wife found out that other women shared his bed.

At then it was Newt Gingrich, but he’s just a loud buffoon

Yeah, next it was Newt Gingrich, but he’s a grandiose buffoon

He should take his wife Callista, and go flyin’ to the moon!

I’ve worked the private sector, and I really did OK

Well, I’ve worked the private sector, and I really did OK

I got rid of lots of workers, ’cause they were standin’ in my way.

I don’t care about the poor folks, ‘cause they got a safety net

No, don’t care about them poor folks, they’ve got their safety net

I’ll help people in the middle, ‘cause they’ll vote for me I’ll bet.

I’m ain’t no lefty librul, no matter what they say

I’m not a mod’rate either, no matter what they say

I’m severely conservative and I’ll prob’ly stay that way.

Now I’m a Michigander, it’s really my home state

Yeah, I’m a Michigander, I really love that state

But I said “Let Detroit go bankrupt" and that might seal my fate.
