Abrahama Obama - 10/26/08 Demo
Pre-election Version..

Lyrics:

Abrahama, he can walk on air
some days he can fly
campaigning, he goes everywhere
in the sea and the sky

from the heartland to big city streets
oh the people, they cry
Abrahama save us from despair
we need change or we'll die

Abrahama Obama
one day we'll be free
Abrahama Obama
we are the change we need

We want a grown-up president
who won't act like a child
We don't need any more bad dreams
or CEOs gone wild

election time is here again
vote hope over fear
let's make Obama president
for a better four years

Abrahama Obama
one day we'll be free
Abrahama Obama
we are the change we need
we are the change we need

I saw Ron English's image of "Abraham Obama" in a magazine. I couldn't get the image out my head and started to think of a song. So here it is! Like many people, I'm probably more in love with the idea of Barack Obama than with the reality of him as a person and as a candidate.

  • I wish I could have given this comment more than one thumbs up.

    People are slowly waking up to this fact. I'm like a broken record on this topic. They look different but they act exactly the same.

    Obama signed an executive order for CIA drones to bomb houses in Pakistan (as if Iraq and Afghanistan weren't enough), killing 22 people including women and children. That's the "anti-war" president? His emergency spending bill is even bigger than Bush's reckless spending. Change? More of the same!

  • It is important to consider the left/right paradigm where both parties are there to prop each other up and give the impression we have choice. It is the similarities and not the perceived differences which are bankrupting the United States. Whether Democrat or Republican, defense spending will increase. Whether Democrat or Republican, the size of the federal government will increase. Whether Democrat or Republican, citizens will continue to lose more freedom and liberty.

  • Abrahama, he walk on air. Barack, he seems to be a mere mortal man. Nice songs Painting Tasters on TheSixtyOne, especially Federal Reserve.

  • This is an awesome song!!!! Paintingtasters are the best!!!

    I love the way it captures the hope that we all feel, and the way it captures the American pop culture/serious revolutionary overtones in English's piece. Love it!!!!
