Flip Flops & Clown Shoes

[SalmonChantedEvening]

Clown Shoes
(To the tune of Red Shoes – Elvis Costello)

Almost daily he gets busted
Oh how the facts they must confuse
Every other word’s adjusted
Someone pass McCain a pair of clown shoes
When acrobatics are a part of the jargon
And the microphone’s the one you accuse
And if John Kerry wore flipflops
Then McCain he must be wearing clown shoes

I’ll be watching as you throw it all away
The manufactured outrage Some People Say
Gramm, Graham and Lieberman, with these kindsa friends
It ain’t your tab but you’re still gonna pay it

So off each new lie is dusted (lookie that)
Every dirty trick is used (the times are bad)
In the mire cause we must (it’s all so sad)
The attack dogs pick and choose
But the game has gotten old
That McCain’s just a jester in clown shoes

Johnny said “He’ll surrender, we’ll all die”
Why’s he got cred, even in Maliki’s eyes
Who knew that honesty could get you such approval
When for the last eight years it’s been cause for removal

Almost daily he gets busted
Oh how the facts they must confuse
Every other word’s adjusted
Someone pass McCain a pair of clown shoes
When acrobatics are a part of the jargon
And the microphone’s the one you accuse
And if John Kerry wore flipflops
Then McCain he must be wearing clown shoes

Clown shoes, somebody pass McCain the clown shoes
Clown shoes, somebody pass McCain the clown shoes
Clown shoes, somebody pass McCain the clown shoes
Clown shoes, somebody pass McCain the clown shoes
