It's a Brand New Day

You'll have to listen to the Neil Patrick Harris original to get the rhythm and tune right. I promise to be all bipartisan and sweet to get along with after this one day of gloating that Allen West, Joe Walsh, Richard Mourdock, and Todd Akin all went down in ignominious defeat. Tommy Thompson, Scott Brown, and their ilk, I hope they stay in politics because even if I disagree with their agenda, reasonable people can do that.

You'll have to imagine Barack Obama staring into the camera as the guitars thrash:

What appeared as a sick electoral dilemma

'Cause at first it was weird
Though I swore to eliminate the worst
Of the lurch to the past that your party made
It's true I was vague on the how
So how can it be that you
Have shown us the light?

It's a brand new day
And the votes are in
Black Kenyan socialist
Is the one who wins
Oh and don't forget:
Lesbian SEN-A-TOR!
It's a brand new day....

All the times that you blocked my agenda I'll forgive
Single-payer torpedoed, in honesty I'll live
Mr. Hate, Mr. Rich, Mr. Bigotry are through
Now the future's so bright and I owe it all to you
You blew up the riight!

It's a brand new day
And the Senate's mine
Allen West is toast
Wall Street's just a punch line
I tried to compromise
Now I wonder why
It's a brand new day...
