Healthcare ByObama

 

In a dark room in congress, smoke filling the air

Pelosi and Waxman taking over health care

A few years in the distance, saw a terrible sight

Rationing and death panels causing people such fright

 

Messengers at the doorway, they’re ringing the bell

Asking elderly folks if they are ready for heaven or hell

Cancer treatment restrictions, just as had been foretold

No joint replacements, for you’re getting too old

 

Welcome to the Healthcare ByObama

You will stand in line (stand in line)

Watch your health decline

Plenty of wait at the Healthcare ByObama

It may take a year (take a year)

For an appointment here

 

Private sector is gone now, government’s in control

A seventh of the economy they craftily stole

They decide the treatments, there’ll be no appeals

See what happens when the liberals do their backroom deals

 

So they called up the records in the government database

“We see that you are handicapped, so we’ve decided to deny your case

You’ll never help society if you’re in a wheelchair

You go to the bottom of the list, maybe you should try prayer”

 

Welcome to the Healthcare ByObama

You will stand in line (stand in line)

Watch your health decline

We decide your fate at the Healthcare ByObama

If your value’s in doubt (value’s in doubt)

We won’t help you out

 

Medicare cuts all over, all your taxes will rise

Restrictions on your coverage, limited health supplies

Riots in the cities as the shortages increase

Grandma in her wheelchair will be stairing down police

 

Last thing I remember, I was needing surgery quick

But they loaded up the pain pills, it was a real dirty trick

'Relax,' said the pharmacist, ‘Soon there will be no pain’

As the government takeover sends our lives down the drain
