"What's bad for America is good my agenda," is one of the lyrics Ray Stevens delivers as President Obama in his newest political musical video, a catchy, humorous spoof arrangement titled, "Mr. President! Mr. President!" This video was just released on YouTube, Wednesday, September 28, after an earlier Fox & Friends exclusive premiere this morning.

In the video, Ray Stevens, singer and composer, is shown as several Tea Party Town Hall citizens, petitioning President Obama about the problems the country is facing in the economy, jobs, loans, small businesses expansion, and selling out to the overseas countries.
With a smile as broad as Rick Perry's Texas, the lyrics hit almost all of the issues members of the tea party, conservatives and independents have with the Obama presidency. It zeroes in on the economy and jobs, illegal immigrations and drug wars from across the border asking, "Mr. President, Mr. President! What__are__you__ going __ to__do?".
Following are the lyrics, transcribed directly from the video (lyrics unavailable elsewhere at this time):
Ray Stevens as a citizen:
Hey, Mr. President! Mr. President!
We got record foreclosures, people losing their homes
The banks are losing money but they won't make loans.
Taxes are bringing small business to their knees
and we owe our souls to the red Chinese.
Mr. President, Mr. President!
What__are__you__ going __ to__do?Ray Stevens as President Obama:
I'm gonna take off my coat and roll up my sleeves,
Turn on the teleprompter and give another speech.
Act real cool and talk real soft
And then go out and play another round of golf.
Throw a party at the White House and give a big show,
Board Air Force One and away I'll go -
Up to New York, take Michelle to a play
Then shoot a few hoops and call it a day.Ray Stevens as a citizen:
But Mr. President?
We got illegal aliens pouring 'cross our borders,
Drug lords committing mayhem and disorder.
States going broke trying to pay their benefits,
Bond markets in the parlor,
Job markets in the pits.
Mr. President, Mr. President!
What__are__you__ going __ to__do?Ray Stevens as President Obama:
Well, now listen real close and hear what I say,
Never let a good crisis slip away.
You gotta look at things, outta my window,
What's bad for America is good for my agenda.Ray Stevens as a citizen:
But, Mr. President! Mr. President!
What__are__you__ going __ to__do?Ray Stevens as President Obama:
I'm gonna take off my coat and roll up my sleeves,
Turn on the teleprompter and give another speech.
Act real cool and talk real soft
And then go out and play another round of golf.
Throw a party at the White House and put on a show,
Board Air Force One and away I'll go -
To blame George Bush and his capitalist ways,
Then shoot a few hoops and call it a day.
