Nancy ain't Settlin'

Along with trying to pass health care reform this week, Nancy Pelosi had time to write a new song for Sourland, her duo with Harry Reid. With apologies to Sugarland, here's my song parody.

A few more days to throw a bill together
Hey Mr. Right Now, the impact's forever
Don't know why they even try when they know how it ends
Going to twist enough arms so I get this win
I'm not leaving it up to fate
Here's the bill, the vote I'll take

I ain't settlin'
'til after recess
I've had enough Blue Dogs
For the rest of my life
Tired of hearing their whines
So raise the bar high
I want to get it all this time
I ain't settlin' for anything less than total control

Pick up these old ideas
And our big majority
Gonna push this thing right on through the House, you see
Maybe lose a few freshmen, that's how it is
With my mind shut closed
Yeah, I will push it through
I'm sitting in the Speaker's chair
Won't change my mind
Will destroy your world

I ain't settlin'
'til after recess
I've had enough Blue Dogs
For the rest of my life
Tired of hearing their whines
So raise the bar high
I want to get it all this time
I ain't settlin' for anything less than total control

I ain't settlin'
`Til September comes
I've had enough no-no
For the rest of my life
Keep shooting off my mouth
So Dems get in line
I ain't settlin'
No, no, no, no, no, no
So Dems gets in line with me

The video inspiration
