Oh, neither do I. Satan’s much more suave.

A few months ago, I had been thinking about “Sympathy for the Devil” for Obama.
Then, part of Sympathy was posted, I followed up with some of my lines, and got some additional ones from Occasional Reader and other lizards.

So here is the result, Sympathy for Obama:

Please allow me to introduce myself
Im a man of hope and change
I’ve been around for few short years
But I’m the object of a new faith.

People think I’m Jesus Christ
Bringing hope and change
Made damn sure that no one
Knows what that change will bring

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my (middle) name
But misleading you
Is the nature of my campaign

I went to Washington
When I saw it was a time for a change
Turned the US socialist
The people screamed in pain

I cut back tanks
with my C-in-C rank
while the jihad raged
and our response, it stank

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my (middle) name, oh yeah
Ah, misleading you
Is the nature of my campaign, oh yeah

I watched with glee
While the Reverend Wright
Damned America and
Put down Jews and Whites

I shouted out,
“who’s the next Kennedy?”
and made y’all think
it was truly me

Let me please introduce myself
Im a man of hope and change
And I played all the race cards
And threw all my friends under the bus

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah
But misleading you
Is the nature of my campaign, oh yeah, get down, baby
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my (middle) name, oh yeah
But misleading you
Is just the nature of my campaign

Just as every pol is a criminal
That the spinners make into saints

To end this tale
Elect me President
And I’ll lay your world to waste

So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Have some sympathy, and some taste
Use all your well-learned politesse
Or Ill lay your world to waste, um yeah
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed (middle) my name, um yeah
But misleading you
Is the nature of my campaign, um mean it, get down
Woo, who
Oh yeah, get on down
Oh yeah
Oh yeah!
Tell me baby, what’s my (middle) name
Tell me honey, can ya guess my (middle) name
Tell me voter, what’s my (middle) name
I tell you voters, you’re to blame
