'Jefferson'

In my history class, we have a debate coming up between Thomas Jefferson and Alexander Hamilton. Yeah, I know it's stupid. We were supposed to treat it like a real debate, with signs and pins and posters.
And a song.
You see, I trust no one else on the planet but myself to write a decent song spoof, so I took the job. And it is a masterpiece. If you don't know the tune, click HERE for the Youtube video.

‘JEFFERSON’


An ingeniously crafted spoof on the song ‘Dynamite’.


I throw my hands up in the spacious skies

Sayin’ eee-o, I’m so freee-o

But then there’s people like Hamilton

Who want to fight, all your rights


I represent, sent, sent, sent

All the farmer’s rightful dissent, sent, sent, sent

Americans should be content, tent, tent, tent

Federalists should all repent, pent, pent, pent

This song goes on and on and on

And it goes on and on and OOOOON, yeaaah!


I throw my hands up in the spacious skies

Sayin’ eee-o, I’m so freee-o

But then there’s people like Hamilton

Who want to fight, all your rights


But we gonna fight right back

We gonna fight a ton

Because the president

Should be Tom Jefferson!


I came to send, send, send, send

The Federalists ‘round the bend, bend, bend, bend

The Constitution we defend, fend, fend, fend

Doesn’t want us to overspend, spend, spend, spend

This song goes on and on and on

And it goes on and on and OOOOON, yeaaah!


I throw my hands up in the spacious skies

Sayin’ eee-o, I’m so freee-o

But then there’s people like Hamilton

Who want to fight, all your rights


But we gonna fight right back

We gonna fight a ton

Because the president

Should be Tom Jefferson!


I’m gonna take ‘em all on

Federalists won’t know what hit ‘em

We will rule the world

Find one of them and get ‘em

America is awesome, and

America, it just wants it all

It just wants it all

My hands in the spacious skies

Hands in spacious skies,

Get your hands in the skyyyyy...


I throw my hands up in the spacious skies

Sayin’ eee-o, I’m so freee-o

But then there’s people like Hamilton

Who want to fight, all your rights


But we gonna fight right back

We gonna fight a ton

Because the president

Should be Tom Jefferson!


There you have it: My 'Dynamite' spoof, filled to the brim with pure awesome.

Bye!
