A lyrical letter to the president elect the night of this victory.

Please do not get shot.
Unveil some supersecret GOP plot, like maybe in 11 weeks you unziiip your skin revealing Sarah Palin.
I have noticed that you are both extremely charismatic minorities in physical prime and you're never in the same place at exactly the same time.

Which is to say...
Oh Obama don't break my heart.
The cynic inside longs to see a fresh time.
So give me some time to just adjust my paradigm,
now that the president is actually smart

What if all the terror threats are real
our war wounds just too deep to heal
is change a childish ideal?
Or can we overcome and

Grow Obama we look to you
For showing us what perseverance can do
And I hope that we can, and I hope you're the man
That this isn't too good to be true...

So buckle up, don't pass the buck, I hope your cabinet doesn't suck.
Restore global integrity, mend healthcare, the economy
Please invest in education and green power innovation to offset the mass inflation of the Bush administration.
Help to end discrimination.
Please exceed all expectation from the start.

And I know you can't do it alone
So teach us to each do our part.

And oh... oooh... Obama don't break my heart.
