"FIFTY WAYS WE CAN RECOVER" (Parody of) Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover Don Caron



LYRICS to FIFTY WAYS WE CAN RECOVER (Lyrics by Don Caron - Music: Paul Simon) This problem is filling me with dread she said to me I believe we’ll find an answer, if we take it logically The first step to a remedy is that we all agree There must be fifty ways we can recover Public lands are up for auction, the EPA has been subdued Education’s been dismantled, the constitution misconstrued Corporations are on welfare, nonetheless, I will conclude there must be fifty ways we can recover, fifty ways we can recover Just kick out the Dick, quick Get congress on the job, Bob Be sure to vote out the louts, no need to explain We need a little swamp-romp, no circumstance or pomp Just locate the drain Jane, simple and plain Step up to the plate, Nate. Make a little call, Paul. Hold your rep to your will, Bill - that’s the art of the deal No alms for the rich, bitch I’m talking’ to you, Mitch If you’re tired of their spiel, Neil, then we'll take the wheel She said it grieves me seeing our country in such pain I wonder if we’ll manage to ever make it great again I said, I appreciate that, so would you please explain about the fifty ways She said, we’ve got a president who isn’t all that bright but our problems are much deeper, as has since been brought to light She smiled sadly, and I thanked her for her feminine insight There must be fifty ways we can recover - fifty ways we can recover Just kick out the Dick, quick Get congress on the job, Bob Be sure to vote out the louts, no need to explain We need a little swamp-romp, no circumstance or pomp Just locate the drain jane, simple and plain Step up to the plate, Nate Make a little call, Paul Hold your rep to your will, Bill - that’s the art of the deal No alms for the rich, bitch. I’m talking’ to you, Mitch If you’re tired of their spiel, Neil, then we'll take the wheel.

have you ever noticed that there do not seem to be any truly successful puke or conservative parodists or comedians?
