Blame it on the Cosa Nostra

Original song: Blame it on the Bossa Nova
(Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil)

Blame it on the Cosa Nostra
A Paddy Whack©

Barry took a chance, on an alibi
Standin’ on his own Bush to crucify
He began his reign, blamin’ Bush and Rove
And soon I knew he’d never let it go

Blame it on the cosa nostra Barry’s magic spell
Blame it on the cosa nostra that he weaves so well
Oh, It all began with chants of hope and change
But USA he plans to rearrange
Blame it on the cosa nostra
Barry’s plan for Gov

(Now was it a goon?)
No, no, the cosa nostra
(Or a velvet glove?)
Oh no, the cosa nostra
(Laws in the back room?)
Yeah, yeah, the cosa nostra
(His plan for Gov)

[instrumental organ]

Now I’m glad to say Barry’s on the wane
And the USA’s gonna rise again!
And when our kids ask how it came about
I’m gonna say to them without a doubt

Blame it on the cosa nostra Barry tipped his hand
Blame it on the cosa nostra woke a sleeping land
Oh It all began with chants of hope and change
And planning USA to rearrange
Blame it on the cosa nostra
Barry’s plan for Gov

(Now was it a goon?)
No, no, the cosa nostra
(Or a velvet glove?)
Oh no, the cosa nostra
(Laws in the back room?)
Yeah, yeah, the cosa nostra
(His plan for Gov)

[repeats and fades]
