If you can get elected President twice
By doing nothing more than sounding nice
If you can insult both your friends and your foes
While allowing that your foes would make better bros
If you can say of Government spending “We need More”
While on Healthcare.gov sits Error 404
If you can give yourself credit while nothing is working
While in the Crimea the Russians are lurking
If for a stimulus you spend a trillion dollars WITH A “T”!
And there is nothing to show for it except a golf trip to Hawaii
If you can spend money for Solyndra and not for XL Keystone
And there’s no money for ships but y’all get a free phone
If from a terrorist attack in Benghazi, you do not fear
You look at the teleprompter and smile from ear to ear
And then say, No it’s really a video. That’s what I hear
While of lives lost you don’t shed a tear
If you can talk to dictators and Moolahs and keep an open mind
But can’t talk to republicans ‘cause you know their evil kind
For there will be doubters and haters, it’s true
For that there’s the IRS and the NY Times too
If you can listen to people talk using the NSA
While talking about freedom to marry if you’re gay
And complaining about women’s lack of equal pay
If you can do all that and still pay women less than men
You need not worry. You have a phone. You have a pen
If you can blame all your problems on Talk Radio or Fox News
By saying about them – they’re no more than a ruse
If you can say to people “Your doctor you can keep”
While people needing doctors sit at home and weep
And the Unions who supported you, ahead of the line they leap
If after all the good this country has done
All you see is some yokel with a gun
If you can take a great constitutional republic
And risk it all on an untried game of economic pitch-and-toss
And never breathe a word about the country’s loss
There’s nothing to fear. You won the election. You’re the boss
