President Obama Sings "Don't Take Care"

To commemorate President Barack Obama's controversial decision to use his executive powers to change the law so as to legalize previously illegal illegal aliens, we have composed a new parody song.

It's sung by President Obama and is entitled: "Don't Take Care." It's inspired in no small part by a fabulous book recently released by constitutional scholar (and former prosecutor) Andrew C. McCarthy, Faithless Execution.

For this parody, we've hijacked the tune of Madonna's two-minute  Pepsi commercial, "Like a Prayer," which premiered as a wholesome, innocent song on The Cosby Show on March 2, 1989 (YouTube video here).

This isn't the first time the tune's been hijacked. Madonna herself did so. After she pocketed $5 million on the commercial, she released an extended version of the song which included highly controversial scenes of a religious and racial nature which caused Pepsi to sever all ties with her. It became a # 1 hit (YouTube video here).

And, the tune was hijacked five years ago by our predecessor parodists, during the 2009 Parody show, which featured a spectacular primer on tort law entitled "Take Due Care." (We'll try to obtain a non-official, audience-recorded version of that masterpiece to post.)

The lyrics of "Don't Take Care" appear below. We will produce and post the video as soon as possible once final exams are done.



"Don't Take Care"

(Sung by President Obama)


Intro

I rule here in D.C.
Obama must rule alone
With some help from Ron Klain
And a pen and . . . phone

Chorus

When I sign my name
It's like a Royal decree
Get down on your knees
Because I don't take care

Free five terrorists
Let illegals stay
Shut down all coal plants
Make right-wingers pay

Amend Obamacare
To help out my friends
Give out free welfare
To achieve my ends

Verse 1

You hear my voice
It's like Adonis shouting
You have no choice
You hear my voice
And you're weeping . . .

I tell my lies
Yes you can keep your health plan . . .
Your doctor, too
I tell my lies
Gruber helps me!

Chorus

When I sign my name
It's like a Royal decree
Get down on your knees
Because I don't take care

Audit right-wing groups
Sell guns to Mexicans
Spy on Attkisson
Betray Americans

Verse 2

Took an oath . . .
I swore that I would take care
To faithfully
Execute laws
I was lying . . .

Don't say I'm wrong . . .
Ignore Andrew McCarthy . . .
Don't impeach me
Don't say I'm wrong
Boycott Limbaugh!

Chorus

When I sign my name
It's like a Royal decree
Get down on your knees
Because I don't take care

In the midnight hour
I can feel you cower
You got no prayer
Because I don't take care
When I sign my name
It's like a Royal decree
Get down on your knees
Because I don't take care

In the midnight hour
I can feel you cower
You got no prayer
Because I don't take care

[Bridge]

[Repeat intro]

I rule here in D.C.
Obama must rule alone
With some help from Ron Klain
And a pen and . . . phone     

[Outro]

I don't take care
My oath don't make me fair

I won election twice
I am D.C.'s Ray Rice

Just like a thug
Looking for who to mug

Just don't take care, I know
My lies make you beware

You got no prayer
I don't take care
It's like a joke to me

You got no prayer
I don't take care
It's like a joke to me
You got no prayer
I don't take care
It's like a joke to me

You got no prayer
I don't take care
It's like a joke to me
