To "They Can't Take That Away From Me"
(Music and Lyrics by George Gershwin and
Ira Gershwin)
Parody Lyrics by Marcy Shaffer
The way I got Al gored.
The way I-raq got free.
My yakkin' with the Lord.
No, no, they can't take that away from me!
The way I mis-cliché.
The way I diss D.C.
My Harvard M.B.A.
No, no, they can't take that away from me!
I will drill the Hill with Pioneers
In the time that I have still.
To the end contend that I'm no friend of Bill.
The way I ducked DeLay.
My "Pooty-Poot" esprit.
The way I got my way.
No, no, they can't take that away from me.
No, they can't take that away from me.
[MUSICAL INTERLUDE]
I have ruled the earth like none, and I'm
Sure before my time has run:
Won't get fooled again, or undone like 41.
The way I play with fact.
The way I nap at three.
Olé, Patriot Act!
Oh no, they can't take that away from me!
No, they can't take that away from me!
Can they take that away from me?
Gary Stockdale
