The Lyrics

This parody is about Barack Obama's recession. Good job there on the economy, "Mr. President". The stock market has crashed everyday since his inauguration, and already 40,000 jobs have been lost in Obama's first two weeks in office. By the end of four years, we'll be lucky to even have pocket change. Maybe that was the "change" he was talking about.
This is a recession
Barack, black sheep
This is your recession
Unskilled and indiscreet
Fiscally unbalanced
These policies
His knowledge is quite incomplete

He will tax you
Yes, he will tax you
He will find a way and he will tax you
He's on the sly
On the sly
He will collect high taxes from you

This is a recession
It's Barack's recession
What's he gonna do-
Blame dub-a-yu?
This is a recession
It's Barack's recession
What's he gonna do-
Blame dub-a-yu?

Barack's debts will accrue
Twenty twelve - Goodbye
Goodbye to you - adieu!
Get out of my sight
They divest
Taking our money
Away
I remain adversative

They got their Barack Hussein
Now the economy is in despair
He's a danger
Perception impaired
At first glance
Those socialist regimes
His direction will only mislead

This is a recession
It's Barack's recession
What's he gonna do-
Blame dub-a-yu?
This is a recession
It's Barack's recession
What's he gonna do-
Blame dub-a-yu?

Barack is a pathetic sadness
He has no goodness
Only badness
His need to tax you
He has no soul
Liberals are assembling
He's out of control

He will tax you
Yes, he will tax you
He will find a way and he will tax you
He's on the sly
On the sly
He will collect high taxes from you

This is a recession
It's Barack's recession
What's he gonna do-
Blame dub-a-yu?
This is a recession
It's Barack's recession
What's he gonna do-
Blame dub-a-yu?

Why are you placing the blame entirely on him? He didn't cause it; his predecessor, Geroge W. Bulls**t, did. Regardless of who was elected in '08, the recession would have continued. It's gonna take lotsa time to recover from it, and O'Bama is doing all he can to ease the situation. So leave the man alone, and quit talking trash about him, or you're gonna get more criticizing comments against your works.

Mr 1's, it's nice to see how uneducated you are to make profane responses such as the one above. The recession, for your information, began when the Democrats gained majority in Congress and the Senate in 2006. Let's also blame Princess Pelosi and Harry Reid for the ultimate devastation to the economy. Mr1's, I also noticed that you are using different aliases by your commenting style and please stop making threats. This website isn't the place for that.

Mr. 1's is NOT uneducated, he's stating the facts. Most people on here would disagree with you anyways, Mr Author.

yep, "You Are Wrong" is absolutely right. We've got this author outnumbered.

The recession, for your information, began when the Democrats gained majority in Congress and the Senate in 2006. This is just a ridiculous lapse in elementary logical thinking. One of the key fallacies your taught in introductory logic is that correlation doesn't imply causation. To make this claim, you have to give me the causal links between policy and result, and the statistical studies to establish this. Sorry buddy, your not "educated" because you can string words together. You're educated when you can think with clarity.
