LYRICS for CAPITOL HILL
Mitch McConnell sings Capitol Hill 2023 (Blueberry Hill)
I get no thrill
On Capitol Hill
On Capitol Hill
Where I am the boss
I’ve passed no bill
On Capitol Hill
I can’t get my will
On Capitol Hill.
Conservatives will push through
What’s bad for our land
And then we’ll shut down the place
So Dems understand
I’ll make Joe ill
On Capitol Hill
Got good laws to kill
On Capitol Hill
I will be magnanimous
And speak forcefully
Give sick people as-pi-rin
If they’re nice to me!
I’ve had my fill
Of Capitol Hill
So let Joe and Jill
Climb Capitol Hill!
