Debate Highlights Songified - The Gregory Brothers

Obama

Romney

Ready, set, go

As president, I will sit down on day one

Sit down with leaders for a couple hours

Talk about the issues, talk about challenges

Part of being a leader is not just saying «I'll sit down»

But you have to have a plan

What it is that you intend to do

You have to have a plan

Okay, moving on now

Will the economy get better soon?

(Uh, uh, uh)

Or will I have to buy my Microsoft Zune?

(Uh, uh, uh)

The reason we’ve been in such a crisis

(Such a crisis, such a crisis)

Reckless behavior

Banks making money hand over fist

You couldn’t have people opening up banks

In their garage and making loans

You have to have regulation

It appears we got some agreement

(Oh shit)

I love Big Bird, I like PBS

I like you too, but I’m gonna stop the subsidy to PBS

I work to cut a trillion dollars out of our budget

Are you gonna tax rich people

The percentage that’s equal?

Or will you give them piles of cash

So they can use hundred dollar bills to wipe their ass?

Under Romney’s definition, Donald Trump is a small business

That kind of approach I believe will not grow our economy

It’s not just Donald Trump you’re taxing

It’s all those small businesses

You raise taxes and you kill jobs

I lowered taxes 18 times

Time for some closing statements

If you got something to say, you better say it

Bring down rates, broaden the base

Simplify the code, incentives for growth

Are we gonna double down on the top down?

America does best when the middle class does best

Bring down rates, broaden the base

Are we gonna double down on the top down?

Simplify the code, incentives for growth

Are we gonna top down on the double, double down on

The base
