__________________________

Try as we may

The things we say

Have lost their magic glow

We’ve got to teach

Or maybe preach

Obama’s magic show

___________________________

So this a time for learning

On how to play the game

When public fires start burning

You find someone to frame

Our own ideas keep failing

We won’t admit we’re wrong

While public trust is waning

We sing our tired old song

____________________________

Oh hey, I say

We found a way

To cover up the fuss

We’ll toss the blame

And those we shame

Beneath Obama’s bus

______________________________

At first we’ll throw our soldiers

They’re always first to go

We’ll use their codes and manners

To toss them to and fro

So honor keeps them silent

That works out good for us

Stowed quiet and convenient

Beneath Obama’s bus

_______________________________

So we can find

A real gold mine

Maybe some points to earn

Opinions move

If we can prove

This is Bush’s third term

___________________________

Then there’s the old Spy Network

We hate the CIA

And that Bureau likes to lurk

Where our secrets need to stay

Let’s do our best to shame them

Ignore their sacrifice

Expose them for all who hate them

For we can’t pay the price

_______________________________

What we know

We dare not show

It might just take us down

We’ve worked so hard

This house of cards

To buff Obama’s crown

____________________________

Then there it is that sneaky couple

That snuck into our show

Hold on! Only we can hustle

Don’t dim Obama’s glow

Let’s look for more to collar

And throw beneath the wheels

As the public hoots and hollers

Let’s quickly make some deals

___________________________

Don’t make us laugh

No proper staff?

You’re looking back at us?

Your transparency

Your expediency

Beneath Obama’s bus

_____________________________

So we’re in a messy fix

We need a guy to fall

I think I know some tricks

The perfect ones to call

These guys we know are taught

A bullet they are to take

If ever there’s a thought

The President’s life’s at stake

_______________________________

Oh hey, I say

We found a way

To cover up the fuss

We’ll toss the blame

And those we shame

Beneath Obama’s bus

_____________________________

So class, I hope you’re learning

What this man has taught us

And ignore the cries your hearing

From beneath Obama’s bus

____________________________

The truth is not for teaching

Its words we can’t abide

If hearing is believing

Then all would know we lied

____________________________

Oh hey, I say

We found a way

To cover up the fuss

We’ll toss the blame

And those we shame

Beneath Obama’s bus

Obama’s Magic Bus
