"Obamatown"

(Set to Billy Joel's Allentown)



Well we are living here in Obamatown

And they're closing all the companies down


In the USA they're killing time Filling out forms, standing in line


Well our fathers fought the First Gulf War

and they warned us all against Al Gore

And we can't afford the gas anymore

So we drive slow or not all

And we're living here in Obamatown


But the restlessness was handed down

And it's getting very hard to stay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay. Ayyyyyyyy-ayyyyy-ay

Oh-oh-oh


*machine noises*



And we're waiting here in Obamatown

For the America we never found

For the promises our President gave

If we worked hard, if we behaved

So the graduations hang on the wall

But they never really helped us at all

No the Jobs were never really real

Food stamps for the poor, not a New Deal

And we're waiting here in Obamatown


But they wont take any oil from the ground

And the greenies all hold sway-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay Ayyyyyyyyy-ayyyyyy-ay


In the 90's every child had a pretty good shot

To get at least as far as their old man got

But something happened on the way to Obama's place

They threw an unemployment flag in our face Ayyyyyyyyyy-ayyyyyyyyyy-ace

Oh-oh-oh

*machine noises*

Well, I'm living here in Obamatown And it's hard to keep a good man down But I won't be getting employed today-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay Ayyyyyyyyy-ayyyyyyy-ay

*instrumental break* Ayyyyyyyyy-ayyyyyy-ay Oh-oh-oh *machine noises* And it's getting very hard to stay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay-ay And we're living here in Obamatown *machine noises*
