Don't leave me swinging in the wind until November
I am here! I am not going away!
Hey, if I was you, I may want me to go away, too
You know, what the hell - do what you have to do
But don't leave me swinging in the wind until November, until November
Don't leave me swinging in the wind, the wind
Democrats, hey! And Republicans, hey!
As much as I love you, I am not going away
I violated the rules and I'm apologizing
For God's sake, I'm 80 years old
And all I'm saying is heck,
Have the ethics committee expedite this
This is an emergency
Democrats, hey! And Republicans, hey!
As much as I love you, I am not going away
He's still a contender
He will not surrender
Don't you leave him
Swinging in the wind until November
Don't leave me swinging in the wind until November, until November
Don't leave me swinging in the wind
Do what you have to do
But don't leave me swinging in the wind until November, until November
Don't leave me swinging in the wind, the wind
There's a lot of pain and anguish from people worried about this Islamic Center
What about these strip joints? strip joints? strip joints?
Are these people who are holier than thou condemning the strip joints nearby?
Let's take a closer look at the strippers to see if they got somethin to hiiiiiiiide!
Painting Islam with a broad brush makes our problems worse, worse, worse
Makes them wooooooorse!
And I don't like it, nobody should like it, like it
Painting strip joints with a broad brush makes our problems worse (worse), worse (worse), worse (much worse!)
It was done to the Jews before--that's why we have perpetual war
Blood and gore!
Perpetual war
Forevermore!
Perpetual war
Persecutin Islamic strippers
I don't like it
Puttin a ban on Halal liquor
nobody should like it
Burnin Qur'ans to get people pissed
I don't like it
Puttin Tinky Winkie on the no-fly list
I don't like it, nobody should like it
Republicans drove our economy into a ditch
We got in there and we pushed and we shoved
And these guys were standin sippin on a slurpee
And they got the nerve to ask for the keys back
I don't wanna give em the keys back
They don't know how to dri-don't know how to drive
When you wanna go forward in your car, what do you do?
You put it in D, they're gonna pop it in reverse
I don't wanna give em the keys back
They don't know how to dri--don't know how to drive
Our metaphorical car got no brakes and no gearshift
We'll go metaphorically far while we're standin in the ditch, bitch!
