A fun little tune, written mostly in an inspired, silly moment after watching 'The Devil and Daniel Johnston' and seeing Obama's victory speech in Iowa (linked at the bottom if you like). It's an exciting time, join in. I'm selling a download of it, sliding-scale style. Suggested price is $20.08 , but obviously you can enter a more reasonable single-download price, anything you choose, all the way down to the normal download price of 79¢. Of course, all proceeds go to the Obama campaign.
Let's have fun with this and get involved.

everybody's talkin bout the change they can make
it's a big election year and it's a lot to take, so you can call them all liars and believe who you wanna
and i believe barack obama

the world is such a big place, plenty scary and confusing, all the crazy ways we're saying and the crazy things we're using, it's too easy to just give up and run and sleep and tell your mama, so i believe barack obama

crazy fundamentalists on the left and on the right
i'm lookin for inclusion, i'm not lookin for a fight
i don't pretend to know what's true, i just know that you don't either, and you don't get to put me down just because you call yourself a true believer
and there's a guy right now who feels the same, and he deserves a lot of commas
yea i believe barack obama

patient, so sincere, plenty driven, super-clear,
heartfelt, big vision, grateful, not afraid of fear,
a long list doesn't do it, you've just gotta

hear him when he says it, feel it in your heart,
remember what it was like before we came apart,
i don't believe bush or clinton when they talk about osama, but i believe barack obama

like mary j i say no more drama
and i believe barack obama
i believe in new things, comma,
and i believe barack obama
