Fiscal Cliff Sing-Along Songs

Ed Note: First wrote this in 2012, and here we are again, same circumstances. The Republicans just won't give an inch. At any rate, here are some songs you can sing around the campfire as the electric company has probably already shut off your energy supply. Thank God for those who still have a back yard.

Oh no, Oh no (Hi ho, Hi ho)

Oh no, Oh no
It’s over the cliff we go
No deal was struck
We’re outta luck
Oh no, Oh no, Oh no

Oh no, Oh no,
Our taxes are gonna grow
We’re in a pinch
Please, someone flinch
Oh No, Oh No…

Seal, Seal, Seal the Deal (Row, Row, Row Your Boat)

Seal, seal, seal the deal
Quickly as you can
Hurry, hurry, hurry or
The shit will hit the fan

It’s Beginning to Look a lot Like Deadlock (It’s Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas)

It’s beginning to look a lot like deadlock
On the Senate floor
Take a look the President’s face
He’s not in a pretty place
The Tea Party is headed out the door…

Boehner’s Turn to Cry (Judy’s Turn to Cry)

And now it’s Boehner’s turn to cry, 
Boehner’s turn to cry,
Boehner’s turn to cry-ay-ay,
Cause Harry don't like, Harry don't like
the deal…

Seal the Deal (Let it Snow)

Oh the President’s on the floor,
As prices begin to soar,
He’s making this one last spiel,
Seal the deal, seal the deal, seal the deal.

Bye, Bye the American Dream (Bye, Bye Miss American Pie)

So bye, bye the American dream
Your home is in foreclosure
And your bankbook’s a scream

Republicans and Democrats all are alike
Sayin’ we won’t have a deal by tonight…
