The Lyrics

A musical suggestion to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, regarding a case in which he seems to have a personal (conflict of) interest
You're supposed to rule on the
Affordable Health Care Act
How with your conflict of interest
Can you impartial be in fact?

You have been compromised, tied to the
Federalist Society
And your wife was paid
By anti-health care groups handsomely

If the reputation of
The court you would not destroy
The appearance of evil
You should now avoid

CHORUS:
Recuse yourself (na, na, na, na, na)
Recuse yourself (dee, dee, dee, dee) (2x)
If you don't recuse yourself
Then your rulings will be tainted totally
Recuse yourself (na, na, na, na, na)
Recuse yourself (dee, dee, dee, dee)

(INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE, SCAT SINGING)

People buying more power
Thinking that they're entitled
'Cause they're rich

The right wing media says the
Shoe to the other foot should switch

They're making false comparisons
Between you and Kagan
if you recuse yourself, she should too
Truth in their hands is beggin'

A discussion of health care
Litigation she just sat in
And they're dumb enough to think
That made her a participant

CHORUS: REPEAT
