"Greenback Dog" -- Political Parody Commentary

Fire up your Karaoke and Guitar Hero machines, and join me in some Political Parody -- (sung in the style of "Black Dog" by rock group legend Led Zepplin)



"Greenback Dog"


Hey, hey, candidate, gonna watch your moves
Gonna watch your sweat, gonna check your grooves.
Political child, out shakin' your thing
Gonna check returns, and what the pundits sing
Hey, hey, babies don't you look away
Watch your money drips, lest we keep away

ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.,
ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.

Country's gotta roll, it can't stand still
Got flames in our hearts that keep our tills all filled
Eye's all bright for future's stead
Dreams of capital run all thru our heads
Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah ah.

Hey, player, oh, purveyor, petty swayer,
Tell me how you'll do us now.

Hey, player, oh, purveyor, petty swayer,
Tell me what you thinkin' now.

Didnt take too long fore I found out
How government is when it's down and out.
Took my money, and spent it far,
To tell the world that they were the star.
I wasn't sold, cause I'd been told
Dollar Sign Zombie Ain't Got No Soul.

ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.,
ah yeah, ah yeah, ah, ah, ah.

All I ask for when I vote,
Is a steady politician, not a flamin' joke.
Need an official with an honest hand
To tell us no lies, and steer a growing land.

ah yeah,
ah yeah,
Tell me how you'll do us now.

ah yeah,
ah yeah,
Tell me how you'll do is now.
