The Lyrics
From the 1949 Rogers & Hammerstein musical, South Pacific; Ezio Pinza and Mary Martin were the stars of the Broadway production. My parody was written in late 1998, when the Republican impeachment drive against President Clinton resulted in their party losing Congressional seats
(instrumental intro)
Some will chant "impeachment"
You can see the danger
You can see the danger
Inside the Oval Room
And somehow, you know
You know even then
Republicans ranting again and again
Some will chant " impeachment"
You can hear Newt laughing
You can hear Newt laughing
About Bill Clinton's doom
Newt lost all those fights
Deranged were his dreams
Election disasters have reigned in his screams
Who can explain it?
Who can tell you why?
Starr gave his reasons
"Perjury means lie"
Some will chant "impeachment"
There's no evidence of
There's no evidence of
A crime - allow some room
Avoid taking sides
And get off the phone
Or all of your brain cells will turn into stone
Starr is confounded
He won't let it go
Starr is confounded
He... won't... let... it... go...
Some will chant "impeachment"
You can see the danger
You can see the danger
Inside the Oval Room
And somehow, you know
You know even then
Republicans ranting again and again
Some will chant " impeachment"
You can hear Newt laughing
You can hear Newt laughing
About Bill Clinton's doom
Newt lost all those fights
Deranged were his dreams
Election disasters have reigned in his screams
Who can explain it?
Who can tell you why?
Starr gave his reasons
"Perjury means lie"
Some will chant "impeachment"
There's no evidence of
There's no evidence of
A crime - allow some room
Avoid taking sides
And get off the phone
Or all of your brain cells will turn into stone
Starr is confounded
He won't let it go
Starr is confounded
He... won't... let... it... go...
