Poof, No More Soft Money
( Sung to the tune of Puff the Magic Dragon )
Bill the President Clinton lived in D.C.
and had a lawyer lady wife
and a daughter named Chelsea.
He took a lot of money
from folks from lands afar.
Republicans said that was bad,
Which made Bill laugh quite hard.
Poof, no more Soft money,
Campaign Reform is here.
Now Politicians tell the truth
and you don't get drunk from beer.
Republicans who couldn't buy
a Nineties President,
now tell their children on Bob Dole
Their inheritance was spent.
And little Newtie Gingrich
taught a college class,
He misused funds he got tax free
and his buddies let it pass.
Poof, no more Soft Money.
Campaign Reform is here.
Now Politicians tell the truth
and you don't get drunk from beer.
Those costly T.V. commercials,
campaign buttons and hats,
are just so damn expensive
say the Democrats.
For us to get elected
We have to beg for cash
at a White House slumber party
or a ten grand coffee Klatch.
Poof, no more soft money,
Campaign Reform is here.
Now politicians tell the truth
and you don't get drunk from beer.
Bipartisans their Credo,
Together now they stand.
Would you like to buy the Brooklyn Bridge
and some Florida swampland?
