YOYO v WITT : McCain v Obama in Song!

By nightowl724 - Jun 1st, 2008 at 12:27 pm EDT

On May 15, John McCain delivered a speech in Columbus OH in which he fantasized about what the USA would be like after his hoped-for first term as President. Later that week, Barack Obama addressed supporters in Portland OR on his plans for retirement security. I conjured up a couple of campaign songs for the candidates based on the underlying principles they champion.

You’re on Your Own (YOYO)
(sung by McCain to the tune of To Each His Own)

So, to those who disdain and won’t vote for McCain:
BushCo’s lovely promise has come true.
You’re on your own. You’re on your own.
And, we now own you.

We’re in This Together (WITT)
(sung by Obama to the tune of So Happy Together)

Imagine me and you. I do.
We’ll stick together day and night. It’s only right,
To care about the world we love, to use our might.
We’re in this together.
