Logo stimulus

The Obama administration has plans to put a special logo on items that are part of the stimulus bill spending.
And transportation projects have their own logo. Why not it's own song parody?


With apologies to Rocky III's "Eye of the Tiger"


Fallin’ down, the economy
Voted Obama, took our chances
Watching stocks falling through the floor
He’s just a man with a will to spend more

So many plans, been ready to go
Then the economy got gory
Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
You must fight just to keep them alive


Here’s the sign of the Tiger, not the cream of the crop
Spending more, even more of your dollars
For the bikepaths, parks and sidewalks you’ll know by sight
Transportation pork is under the sign of the Tiger

Packed in tight, using mass transit
Hangin’ tough when you’re sweaty
We stacked the bill with our kind of pork
For the votes that we need to survive

Here’s the sign of the Tiger, not the cream of the crop
Spending more, even more of your dollars
For the bikepaths, parks and sidewalks you’ll know by sight
Transportation pork is under the sign of the Tiger

Risin’ up, budget over the top
Why pay when I get the glory
Economy’s tankin’ but I’m not gonna stop
I’m a man with a will to spend more
Here’s the sign of the Tiger, not the cream of the crop
Spending more, even more of your dollars
For the bikepaths, parks and sidewalks you’ll know by sight
Transportation pork is under the sign of the tiger


The sign of the Tiger (repeats out)…

most roadwork projects have had a sign saying "your tax dollars at work". how about one that says "your grandchildren's tax dollars at work" with a picture of the chinese flag?
