President Al, NewsRevue Lyric, 23 May 1993

I rather liked this lyric, but I don’t think it was ever used.

                                                              PRESIDENT AL

                                           (To the Tune of “You Can Call Me Al”)
 
VERSE 1 – CLINTONS
 
A man in Washington he says,
Why am I soft in the noddle now?
Why am I soft in the noddle when the rest of my team is so bright?
I need a photo opportunity,
I need a lot of attention,
Don’t want to end up a has been in a tax and spend fight.
 
Bill Clinton, Bill Clinton, ponders there all night,
Far away in the Oval Room,
Hilary Clinton, Hil Clinton has much more ability,
But for now the USA it just won’t boom.
 
CHORUS 1- CLINTONS
 
“If you are a feminist,
I can give you jobs” said Bill;
“Wife in charge of health care,
And medical appointments are now made with Hil”.
 
VERSE 2 – GORES
 
A man in Washington he says,
“Why am I short of attention?
Get so damned little media attention and my job’s such a bore.
Got my wife beside me,
We stand behind Clinton,
He needs a role model and we are clothes models”,
 
Gore, Gore, we should be in Hollywood unlike,
Bill’s roly poly little bat faced girl;
And the poor, poor, say we are all star struck,
Can’t decide if we’re decisive enough.
 
CHORUS 2 – GORES
 
I look like a bodyguard,
And Tipper is the Clinton’s pal;
And although I’m steady,
I’m ready if I’m called in as President Al,
White House Al.

This lyric works ever so well with the tune of You Can Call Me Al by Paul Simon. Dig this vid:
