When I wrote Barack’s middle name
All of the readers and writers came
They left a comment and voted in my poll
Oh, how I wish I was now a troll
It is so lonely writing about John McCain
Duncan Hunter has more fame
Now 10 comments is my modest goal
Oh, how I wish I was now a troll
Perhaps, I think, there is just no one here
But quickly I realize it is that they don’t care
For I have less hits then "pie" in some poll
Oh, how I wish I was now a troll
The umpteenth blog with "Yes We Can"
Has just attracted its umpteenth fan
As I sit and wait, a lonely soul
Oh, how I wish I was now a troll
Then someone cuts and pastes a story
And promptly receives all the glory
But it’s just some lines that they stole
Oh, how I wish I was now a troll
There are the numbers from the latest state
Informing us of the campaign’s fate
But I’d prefer something I can control
Oh, How I wish I was now a troll
I could criticize a candidate!
Hillary is the one they love to hate
I’ll get so many hits I’ll need a tip bowl
Oh, How I wish I was now a troll
But I know what will really bring them in
Bad mouthing Barack is considered a sin
They’ll rush to call me an asshole
Yes, Yes, I am going to be a troll!
I’ll pretend I care, but say "Hussein"
And even though that is just his middle name
They’ll think I’m a bigot, but hey, that’s my role
Fame ain’t easy when you are a troll.
