Buzz Ballad: Mr. Sandman

—apologies to P. Ballard, the Chordettes and “Mr. Sandman”

Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum
Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum

Mr. Sandman, you wrote a “Dream”
(Bum, bum, bum, bum)
But your composites were less than they seemed
(Bum, bum, bum, bum)
You promised lots of hope and changing
(Bum, bum, bum, bum)
But we don’t like your social rearranging

Sandman, we’re being boned
(Bum, bum, bum, bum)
By government, we’d rather stand on our own
(Bum, bum, bum, bum)
We want to repeal your healthcare scheme
Mr. Sandman, we reject your dream

Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum…

Mr. Sandman, you wrote a dream
But your composites were less than they seemed
You promised lots of hope and changing
But we don’t like your social rearranging

Sandman, we’re being boned
By government, we’d rather stand on our own
We want to repeal your healthcare scheme
Mr. Sandman, we reject your dream

Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum

Mr. Sandman (Yes?) it’s evident
Your ego’s too big for you to be President
You should regard your sand-sculpture’s erosion
Symbolizing your Presidency’s implosion

Mr Sandman, we want to hold
(We want to hold)
What we have earned in life for when we are old
We want to repeal your healthcare scheme
Mr Sandman, we reject, yes, yes reject
Mr Sandman, we reject your dream

Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum…
