( Presidential candidate campaign song lyrics )
HOCUS POTUS
Copyright © 2007 - mickterry.com

Sixteen names and we were counting.
Sixteen names to choose among.
Sixteen names and I was frowning.
But I doubt that we will ever find someone even half as dumb.

HOCUS POTUS, Commander-in-Chief.
Is anybody out there who can give us relief?
HOCUS POTUS, who'll take on this hat?
God knows, for these 8 years, we've had enough of this crap.

Sixteen names would somehow narrow.
Sixteen names would be pared down
'til there're two to choose for Pharaoh.
But I doubt that we will ever find someone even half the clown.

    CHORUS

        Candidates to the left of me.
        Candidates to the right.
        Some candidates that I wouldn't want to see in
        an alley on a scary night.
        Candidates right behind- me.
        Candidates straight ahead.
        Sometimes I wish Pat Paulsen was one
        even though I think he's still dead.

Sixteen names and some seemed missing,
some without a plan they'd hatched.
Sixteen names we'd be dismissing
if we doubt all their effectiveness, start it all again from scratch.

    CHORUS

        It may not take much magic
        to improve upon the current POTUS.
        It will take a lot more magic
        to repair- all the damage done.
