McCain Believes in Yesterday

Yesterday, all John's troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, John believes in yesterday.

Suddenly, he's not half the man he used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over him.
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.

Why voters had to go I don't know they wouldn't say.
He said something wrong, now John longs for yesterday.

Yesterday, Rove was such an easy game to play.
Now McCain's place is a hide away.
Oh, John believes in yesterday.

Why they had to go I don't know they wouldn't say.
He said something wrong, now John longs for yesterday.

Yesterday, Rove was such an easy game to play.
Now McCain's place is a hide away.
Oh, John believes in yesterday.
Mm mm mm mm mm mm mm.

If Obama paints a thousand words
Then what's McCain to do?
His words will never show,
A man you'd love to know -

If Barak can launch a thousand votes
And many more, we know.
There's no hope for McCain,
Just much more of the same -

And when my love for freedom leaves me dry
They come and pour Barak on me.

If the Democrats start the fighting
Spinning repubs down to die,
Obama knows what to do
And when the winning's through...

Then vote by vote
McCain will surely know,
That you and I...
Have let him fade away.



impressive Marquis...further evidence that "yesterday" is far and away the best song ever written for comic re-lyricing...

Thanks... Will be doing more in the future.

Enjoyable parody and nicely in meter.

I just want to say that if McCain "wins" this, it is time for us all to say,

We say we want a Revolution

I will be ready to revolt!

However, this is what I think will happen:

Since McCain is nothing but an old coot, and every day looks more like the ugly stepsister who doesn't get asked to dance, I predict that the Cheney-RNC will take over: I will not be surprised if McCain has a sudden heart attack (arranged by the RNC) and someone else takes the mantle, grabbing a "sympathy bump."

My prediction: the mormon
