Oh, I'm Just a Fiscal Bill

In the hopes that a catchy tune may help the House of Representatives pass the new fiscal deal more quickly, Schoolhouse Rock!, best known for its animated musical educational films, has released a spinoff of the hit 1975 song “I’m Just a Bill.” They’ve released the lyrics to The Gabbler first, but the song will reportedly be performed by rapper Jay-Z on Wednesday morning on the steps of the Capitol as an appeal to House Representatives as they cast their votes.
(Yeah. Uhuh. Yeah.)I’m just a bill.
Yeah, I’m only a fiscal bill.
But I’ll extend the tax rates for the richies,
And estate tax’ll increase to fifty.
I’ve benefits for the unemployed,
A “Doc Fix” and a break on green energy.
Will I pass? I hope I will,
But today I’m still just a bill.I’m just a bill
Yes, I’m only a fiscal bill,
And I’m as far as Senate on The Hill.
Now I’m stuck in HOR
But the GOP says “War!”
Boehmer’s shit his pants and Cantor
Says he’ll go down on Pelosi before I’m law!
If I pass with the Reps than I will,
But today I’m still just a lonely bill.Yeah, I’m just a bill.
Yes, I’m only a fiscal bill.
And I’m sitting here on Capitol Hill.
But me? I’m kinda cool,
Because I might possess the tool,
To stop the US from tumblin’ off a cliff
Of fiscal nature!
At least, Obama hopes I will,
But still on New Years Day I’m only just a bill.
