LYRICS:
How dare you, sir? Yeah, you, yeah I said it
No respect for a bait and switch? Give us credit
Straight spitting fibs from the ghetto to Tokyo
You'd think we're Geppetto the way we're getting Pinnochios
We've heard the details, we've heard complaints aplenty
we've read your emails (not that you've sent us any…)
We know Obamacare is falling apart by any tally
It's crumbling so bad you'd think it's made by Nature Valley
But we got a new ad campaign across the world
We got one for dudes, we got one for girls
So if you press corps bores want to chance inquire
I hope you brought smores because these pants on fire
Sir, millions of people are trying to accept
the loss of their plans you told them could be kept
and one thing that's baffling folks around the planet
is how have these plans been canceled but Two Broke Girls hasn't?
I've tried and I've tried, but the effort is in vain
Never has a website inflicted such pain
for our wasted time is a bailout in sight?
For users of healthcare.gov? No, people who drafted Ray Rice
You said people could keep their plan but look where that led
We didn't say "plan." We said "fathead."
No, you said it'd be like Kayak or Amazon, like a laser, pronto!
No, kayaking on the Amazon with the mayor of Toronto
But you–can't comment, G. But you s–can't comment, cuz
Why can't you comment? I don't have Google Plus
But this is your law and now people need help
I mean you wrote the thing–did you just knockout game yourself?
Selling hope's like selling soap, son, I'll tell you why
You can't make either one without a little bit of lye
