  • Are you cool?
    Well I'm cool
    Is everybody cool?
    Well let's get hot
    Grass roots
    All across this great nation
    And I am truly humbled
    And gratefully accept the nomination

    I'm gonna be President
    Of the United States
    First Tuesday in November
    Mark it down, and save the date
    Live music in the White House
    Strictly BYOB
    The public wanna get down
    It is our collective destiny

    I'm gonna kiss all the babies
    Maybe kiss their mamas too
    I don't need the secret service
    I know how to work a room

    I'm gonna be President
    Of the United States
    I was born to be President
    Of these United States
    On the day I was born
    All the nurses and doctors
    Take that boy out his crib
    And put him in the Executive Office

    First thing that I'm gonna do is disclose all those UFOS
    Put Jimi Hendrix on the twenty dollar bill
    And Bill Hicks on a five note
    Hot damn The democratic process
    What a time to be alive
    Oh, I'm ready to give the people what they want
    And what they want is straight talk and no jive

    We have exit polls coming in
    Rhode Island and American Samoa
    We have more results coming in
    From Puerto Rico and both Dakotas
    Breaking news
    Happening right now
    I believe we're ready to call it
    Do you want us to call it?
    (Yeah) I believe
    We have a winner

    Thank you very much
    I couldn't have done it
    I couldn't have done it without you
    Drinks on me

    Thank you very much
    I couldn't have done it
    I couldn't have done it without you
    Drinks on me

    First thing that I'm gonna do is go for a ride on a UFO
    Put Jimi Hendrix on the twenty dollar bill
    And Bill Hicks on a five note
    Hot damn The democratic process
    What a time to be alive
    Oh, I'm ready to give the people what they want
    And what they want is straight talk and no jive Writer/s: Dan Maines, Jean-Paul Gaster, Neil Fallon, Richard Sult
