Pennsylvania’s Song (To the tune of “King Herod’s Song”)
Opening Chorus:
Hey Bama Ho Bama
Bama, Bama Hey
Bama Hey Bama Ho, Ba-ma
Hey Bar-ry, Bar-ry, won’t you smile at me?
Bama hey, Bama ho, Superstar
Pennsylvania
Barry we are overjoyed to meet you face to face,
You’ve been getting quite a name, all around the place
Unifying liberals,Registering the red
You’re the one who’s diff-er-ent -
At least that’s what you’ve said.
Chorus
So you are the hope
You’re the great liberal hope
Prove to us that you’re electable
Make our scrap-ple delect’ble
That’s all you need do
Then we’ll know it’s all true
C’mon you candidate of change
Pennsylvania
Barry we just can’t believe
The hype the press has made
They write of you so glowingly
It seems as if they’re paid
You point them to your record
Say you’re against the war
But when you got your chance to vote
You walked right out the door
Chorus
So you are the hope
You’re the great liberal hope
Prove to us that you’re the one –
Pledge to use the general fund
If you do that for us,
We can jump on your bus
C’mon, candidate of change
Pennsylvania
We only ask what we’d ask any superstar
What lobbyists have you ensnared
That put you where you are?
Oh wait!We remember.
You Don’t take it their hands
You take it from their friends and Families
--- and from Rezco’s lands
Chorus
So if you are the hope
You’re the great liberal hope
Save us, those typ-ically white
Make us forget the Reverend Wright!
-Also NAFTA and Afghanistan
Say, just when do you take a stand?
Aren’t you the candidate of change?
Pennsylvania
Hey Bar, you are so full of guile
You vote present, then you smile
You’re a fraud – You’re not for change
You’re just doin’ it all the same
You are worse then the rest
Cause you claim you’re the best
Get out you candidate
Get out you candidate
You ain’t no candidate of change!
