“If I Only Had A Spine”
by commenter Matt Osborne
Sung to the tune of “If I Only Had a Brain”
He could bring a bill to cloture
And heed the will of voters
Ending gridlock-grind;
For sixty votes we’d muster
There’d be no filibuster
If Harry had a spine!
Agendas would be simple
And leftward of the middle
Passing in good time;
Oh, the bills we would be passing
With an expedited fashion
If Harry had a spine!
Oh, who can tell me why
The GOP’s in charge?
‘Minority’ means not so large
So why is taking charge so hard?
He could be not quite so easy
An upright leader, you see,
Instead of flat-supine;
He would be friends with Jerry
Obama would be merry
If Harry had a spine!
