Coming to a TMRM show in March 2009, is an abusive rendention of Bill Haley's "Rock Around The Clock". We had planned to cut back on political satire music to allow more time to talk with Ed Fox, but this song just popped in the head during lunch before the January 28th taping.

Ben is joined (thankfully) by Soul Survivor on performing this parody called "Mock Around Barack". It was a tongue-twisting song that had the performers, audience, and crew laughing. We hope you enjoy it too.

For those who like to steal the lyrics, they are below. (Note: We hear this was already done with the "McCain" version of the Clapton song, "Cocaine".)

Rock Around The Clock
Original - Bill Haley & Comets / Also SexPistols & Back Street Boys

One, Two, Three BARACK, people to BARACK flock,
Five, Six, Seven BARACK, DC has BARACK shock.
Nine, Ten, Eleven BARACK, hear BARACK crock,
We're gonna mock,  new PRES.,  BARACK tonight.

Money trouble done and less to come,
We'll have some fun when BARACK sends some.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHORUS:
We're gonna flock around BARACK tonight,
We're gonna hock, BARACK, crock 'till broad daylight,
We're gonna mock - around - PRES. BARACK tonight.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When BARACK warns terrorists two, three and four,
If they don’t back down, he'll make more war.

CHORUS:

When OBAMA stimulates billions - five, six, and seven,
They’ll be the middle-class folks he’s still forgetting.

CHORUS:

When the billions reach eight, nine, ten, eleven too,
They’ll be minimal wage jobs just waiting for you.

CHORUS:

When BARACK serves twelve we'll cool off then,
Wondering how “Pres” Barack ran again.

CHORUS:
