The Lyrics
The US president hopes to raise a few million campaign $ from his birthday party. Over the coming two weeks, he wants as a gift a higher debt ceiling without yielding to Republican cuts. Most amIright folks will not be there, but they can sing this tribute based on TOS sung to JFK by MM when BHO was a toddler.
Happy birthday, B. O.
You bleed worth from our dough.
Happy birthday, gifted president;
You feed on debt to grow.
How old will you get
Ere the national debt
Limit's seventeen trillion?
Just fifty, I'll bet!
Happy birthday to O,
Who needs more of our dough,
So that he can redistribute
To each friend but no foe.
How old will he be
One day past August 3?
One year for each of our states
That he'd rule by decree.
Ere his birthday comes near,
He will stir up faux fear:
Boomers' parents and grandchildren
Won't survive till next year.
How old will he be
When his term's history?
We can hope that it's fifty-one
Or he'll spawn dynasty.
Happy birthday is seen
Then in twenty-thirteen,
When he's called "the ex-president
Who in two ways was green."
How long will it take
Till most voters awake
To what's under sweet frosting
Of each birthday's crumb cake?
You bleed worth from our dough.
Happy birthday, gifted president;
You feed on debt to grow.
How old will you get
Ere the national debt
Limit's seventeen trillion?
Just fifty, I'll bet!
Happy birthday to O,
Who needs more of our dough,
So that he can redistribute
To each friend but no foe.
How old will he be
One day past August 3?
One year for each of our states
That he'd rule by decree.
Ere his birthday comes near,
He will stir up faux fear:
Boomers' parents and grandchildren
Won't survive till next year.
How old will he be
When his term's history?
We can hope that it's fifty-one
Or he'll spawn dynasty.
Happy birthday is seen
Then in twenty-thirteen,
When he's called "the ex-president
Who in two ways was green."
How long will it take
Till most voters awake
To what's under sweet frosting
Of each birthday's crumb cake?
I doubled the length this year. That's inflation. For 2010 or 2009, change the URL's last digit to 2 or 1. I plan to write the final one in 2012.

BJM - This brings new meaning to the "Monroe Doctrine"! ;D
Monroe Doctrine. That's funny. This is the first time in my life that the President is younger than I am. By all rights, he should be holding down some patronage dispensing job in the Dailey machine while waiting for the chance to be anointed mayor of Chicago. Best line above "You bleed worth from our dough".
Thanks, OMR & PMcW. "Just" in line 8 should be "Only" or "Barely" to fit OS.
He'll be 1 year for each state. So by his count, he's almost 57!
