In the spirit of Maya Angelou, the recasting of "Candles in the Wind" for Hillary. |
|
"Vote for Hillary Diane!" Though I never knew her at all She has the grace to hold herself While all her staffers crawled They crawled out of the woodwork And they whispered into her brain They set her on the treadmill And they made her change her name
And it seems to me she lives life Like a candle in the wind Never knowing which ideology to cling to When the primaries set in And I would have liked to have known her But I was just a kid Her chances for nomination flickered out long before The legend ever did
Loneliness was tough The toughest role she ever played The White House made her a superstar And pain was the price she paid 'Specially when Bill lied Oh the press still hounds her All the papers had to say Was that Hillary stood behind her dude
Goodbye Hillary Diane From the young man in the 22nd row Who sees you as something as more than sexual More than just our First Lady
-- inspired by Sir Elton John

1. Elton does his best work when his blonde muse is deceased. |

It seems you have a penchant for the parodic.

I don't think seating will be a problem. ;)
