But What About Bob?

More Tea Party music, this time set to Bob Seger tracks “Like a Rock” and “Turn the Page.”

“They Liked Barack” is the better of the two. It had me laughing — sometimes by real intent. Whatever the reason, the softer approach than usual Tea Party material works.

“Change the Change” — hmmm, could’ve used a better central lyric. “Unemployed again …” is good, even though it confuses the crashed economy for the middle class with the arrival of Obama.

More! Much better than Worley’s “Keep the Change.”

Chuck Eddy and Myonga (two of my pals on ILM) will s—.

Note standard Tea Party obsession with Obama/Bill Richardson/Hillary Clinton photograph. He doesn’t have his hand over his heart!

Nb: The ChangetheChange fellow also rebrands Paul Simon’s Fifty Ways to Leave Your Lover as Fifty Ways to Save Our Country. The karoake track betrays him a little when the background singers come in. But it’s made up for by his swimming pool shot.
