Some of the lyrics I changed between during and after recording, this is one version, a few lines are different I think.

Song is here: The Confirmation Song by Sen. Robert "Dave Seville" Byrd and the Congressmunks [Byrd] Well Senators, as I'm sure you're all aware, its Confirmation Time once again, and just as sure as I hate miscegenation, I hate George Dubya Bush and all his evil works. So are you ready to stand with me, Congresswoman Pelosi, for pandering and demagoguing? [Pelosi] I'm ready [Byrd] Senator Boxer, for weepin' and a-wailin'? [Boxer] waaaaaaaaaahhh! [Byrd] And Senator Kennedy, you ready? Teddy? Teddy! TEDDY!! [Kennedy] Uh, yeah I'm ready [Democrats] Nomination time is here Time to sneer and time to jeer Kerry lost but we're not sad Ohio made a nice fundraising ad [Pelosi]I'll call Condi George Bush's houseslave [Boxer]I'll blame Gonzales for Abu Ghraib [Democrats]Our constituents salivate (When) Democrats demagogue and den-i-grate [Byrd] Well that was might fine, mighty fine Senators. Uh, Senator Boxer, you were a little flat on that weepin' and a-wailin' [Boxer] Won't somebody please think of the children? [Byrd] Nancy Pelosi, you might wanna shoot a little more Botox in your forehead, I think I discerned an emotional wrinkle. [Pelosi] Hehehehehehehe okay! [Byrd] Senator Kennedy, put down that Chivas and leave that intern alone. Teddy! Teddy!! TEDDY!! [Kennedy] BURP! Yassah! [Democrats] We can't win, don't have the votes But its Oscar time as Barb emotes Nine more hours of debate Make Moveon moonbats cyber-donate [Boxer]Next week its the Attorney Gen. [Pelosi]"Antonio trashed the Geneva Conven.!" [Democrats]But with Teddy's clout I'm sure we'll muster The votes to sustain a fil-i-buster We can hardly stand the wait For Hillary in oh-eight [Byrd] Well that was purty good.. [Pelosi] Hey, I wanna do my song now... [Boxer] Yeah I have a drum solo I play here, its really cool... [Byrd] Now wait.. I don't think the time is appropriate for... [Kennedy] My Stratocastah plugs into the Mah-shall and I do this 2 hand tapping technique... [Byrd] Now just a minute [divebomb] [Pelosi & Boxer] Inna Gadda Da Vida honey, don't you know that I love you?... [Byrd] Point of order, Mr. Chairman, Ms. Pelosi, Sen Boxer... Teddy! Teddy!! TEDDY!! [Boxer] Let's see Christine Todd Whitman play double kick fills like that [Pelosi] Kay Bailey Hutchenson, eat your heart out [Kennedy] Sh*t- broke a string [fade out]

It is creative and fun. We can tell you have done this before. They lyrics stick it too them very nicely.

Now, keeping in mind that you are the musician, and I am the commercial real estate broker/bomb blast consultant, help me understand something. I know you don't like MIDIs. That's fair. Uncleshag hates them.

You said mine didn't scan. I wrote it to a MIDI and I think it scanned perfectly with that MIDI.

Here is part of your effort:

Nomination time is here
Time to sneer and time to jeer
Kerry lost but we're not sad
Ohio made a nice fundraising ad
[Pelosi]I'll call Condi George Bush's houseslave
[Boxer]I'll blame Gonzales for Abu Ghraib
[Democrats]Our constituents salivate
(When) Democrats demagogue and den-i-grate

ORIGINAL:

Christmas, Christmas time is near
Time for toys and time for cheer
We've been good, but we can't last
Hurry Christmas, hurry fast
Want a plane that loops the loop
Me, I want a hula hoop
We can hardly stand the wait
Please Christmas, don't be late.

==========================================

Line 4 had 7 syllables; you put in 10. Line 5 has 7 in the original; yours has 9. It seems that you really had to force it to get in the words. What am I missing?

By the way, CLAN ON THE RUN would have been better. I'll give you that.
