Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

I didn't hear any "You lie!" from the Republicans at the State of the Union address. Guess they can't handle the truth.
(instrumental opening)

You keep saying you've got something for us.
But it's the stuff that got us in this mess.
You were messing where you shouldn't be messing.
The guy we voted for, he knows what's best.

These truths Obama's talking
are what we all should do.
Conservatism failed
and we have had enough of you.

Yeah.

You keep grating about deregulating
and how we should cut taxes for the rich.
You keeping same-ing when you ought to be changing.
What's right-wing's wrong, we made the proper switch.

These truths Obama's talking
are what we all should do.
Conservatism failed
and we have had enough of you.

Yeah.

He keeps saying, strong is State of our Union.
Because he acted, now we heal our burns.
Ha!
Now you try to sell us your old matches.
And we all know you just refuse to learn.

These truths Obama's talking
are what we all should do.
Conservatism failed
and we have had enough of you.

Are you ready, Barack?
Start talkin'!

(instrumental fadeout over the massive applause for our President)

...leaping to my feet to applaud Mark! (It just seemed like the natural thing to do at a State Of The Union Address). ;D

I saw Obama's speech and as I may look up to him, I don't know why, but I'm very hesitant about what he's saying in his speech. I hope that Obama would fix this nation soon. I even thought that all he's doing is talking instead of acting on the situation. I was actually waiting to hear SOTU in your point of view and let me tell you, great work and I'm with you all the way! Applauding you with 5's!!

Good parody 555 - he is talking, but where is the getting done? Health care passes first round only because it was "extorted" by 2 Dems and Unions and now he sluffs off changes to Pelosi and Reid. New small business credit goes to small banks, not companies and when are banks lending? Cap and trade and bank taxes will simply be passed on to us, the customers - our backs get heavier.

What, you didn't hear how hard all the Republicans laughed at his futile effort to sell them that Gore's-bull Warmageddon hoax one last time? Better get your ears checked, boy.

MP: You are just the man I'm looking for to sing the final set of my parallelody at ~60s/andywilliams53.shtml but please don't vote! Your pacing here is perfect except "State of our Union" (omit "our" or how about "Statist Union"). 555 begrudgingly ....

Hey! I frown at rating a work with 1s over differing beliefs...but multiple "oneing" should be a capital offense. Cool it, youse guys! ;D
Beatnik Truth Handler - January 29, 2010 - Report this comment
Truth is a 10% unemployment rate. Truth is a speeding moron evicted from his office. Truth is shouting "You Lie!" at any Democrat whatsoever when his lips move. Truth is a Supreme Court ruling in favor of free speech. Truth is a deep blue stated turning brown. Truth is a Joker poster that asks "Why so socialist?" But most importantly, Truth is broadcasting all your skullduggery on C-Span as you promised.

Well, how many verifiable or falsifiable statements was anyone supposed to notice in all that empty noise? If you were being paid to pay attention like some people, though, there was at least one guy on the Supreme Court spotted mouthing "not true" to one of 0bama's multitudes of lies.

If rating works with 1s over differing beliefs were a capital crime, Chucky and Michael and virtually every other regular on here would have been executed long ago. So quit grumping and get back to polishing your old man's head, gramps.

So, like, Gitmo is closed now, right? And TARP II sure has saved us from that dreaded double-digit unemployment we'd have been facing now if it weren't for all the 0ne's bold leadership, hasn't it? And all the Health Care Reform meetings and votes have been broadcast on TV in this thoroughly transparent administration, haven't they? And all the world is at peace with us due to the other countries' new-found respect for our country since our new affirmative action hire somehow managed to pull us out of Iraq and Afghanistan and convince Iran to stop messing around with nukes, isn't it?

That tingle you feel up your leg every time he talks? That's called incontinence. There are things like Depends for that. Just thought you ought to know.

Great parody, Michael, and although I didn't watch the whole State of the Union, what I saw gave me the impression that Obama is finally starting to see the light and will turn things around before the next election. 5s.

Nice parody. Boy, I didn't know this site is called IAMRIGHT, 'cause it sure seems like everyone has at least one opinion that's the right one! But I have very bad news for everyone - both the Left and Right reps in our gov't are wrong! We the people have been suckered into taking sides while they sit back and bait us on! Hopefully some day (soon!) we the people will take back our country and restore it to what it should be.

We now apologize for the overflow discussion that appears to have seeped into this AmIRight parody. Those responsible have been sacked. We now return you to our regularly scheduled silliness currently in progress on channel 555.

(Nice Monty Python reference!) We apologize for the overflow discussion that continues to seep into amiright parodies. Those responsible for sacking the offenders have been sacked! We now continue at great expense with a completely different comment editorial staff.Para La Bamba. Para La bamba, se necessita! ;D

Great humor, MP. It was apparent that President Obama misreprented the recent Supreme Court decision in the Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission case and he misrepresented the success of his stimulus bill, among other things. So I enjoyed the irony of your parody poking fun at his misrepresentations.

Nicely done parody. While I'm afraid that one of these days the BATFE jackboots are going to walk all over us, that does not detract from a skilfully written song. Which is supposed to be the point of this site. I'm overdue for a new entry. Maybe I'll go work on a couple.
