A Remix of Short People

In honor of the Obamacare nightmare being considered in Congress.
Randy Newman's Short People

A Paddy Whack©
Old People

Old People got no reason,
Old People got no reason
Old people got no reason to live
They might need a hip
Or a Kidney too
They need to give up
Take the pill that's blue
They got aging hearts
And dentures for their teeth
Need a walker too
Just to stand up on their feet
Well, I don't want no old people
Don't want no old people
Don't want no old people 'round here.

Old people are not the same
As you and I (Why don't they just die?)
All men are brothers until it's time to die
(It's an Obama world)

Sick people got no lobby
Sick people got no lobby
Sick people got no lobby in Gov
They get waiting lines
And rationed care
There's a max amount
With Obamacare
He's got a health czar
That should help you sleep
Til that pesky life support goes
Beep Beep Beep
We say keep your grubby hands
Off of my health chart
But it doesn't matter now that you're an old fart
Well, don't want no old people
Don't want no old People
Don't want no old people 'round here.
