A music video of The Presidents song from the nineties animated series Animaniacs, with South Park-styled versions of each and every United States President, from George Washington through Barack Obama.\r
\r
Lyrics:\r
Heigh ho! Do you know,\r
The names of the US Residents\r
Who then became the Presidents\r
And got a view from the White House loo\r
Of Pennsylvania Avenue?\r
\r
George Washington was the first, you see\r
He once chopped down a cherry tree.\r
\r
President number two would be\r
John Adams and then Number three\r
\r
Tom Jefferson stayed up to write\r
A Declaration late at night\r
So he and his wife had a great big fight\r
And she made him sleep on the couch all night\r
\r
James Madison never had a son\r
then he fought the War of 1812\r
\r
James Monroes colossal nose\r
Was bigger than Pinnochios\r
\r
John Quincy Adams was number six\r
And its Andrew Jacksons butt he kicked\r
So Jackson learns to play politics\r
Next time hes the one that the country picks\r
\r
Martin Van Buren number eight\r
For a one term shot as chief of state\r
\r
William Harrisson, how do you praise\r
That guy was dead in thirty days!\r
\r
John Tyler he liked country folk\r
And after him came President Polk\r
Zachary Taylor liked to smoke\r
His breath killed friends whenever he spoke\r
\r
1850, really nifty\r
Millard Fillmores in\r
Young and fierce was Franklin Pierce\r
The man without a chin\r
\r
Follows next a period spannin\r
Four long years with James Buchanan\r
Then the South start shootin cannon\r
And weve got a civil war\r
\r
A war!\r
A war down south in Dixie!\r
\r
Up to bat comes old Abe Lincoln\r
Theres a guy whos really thinkin\r
Kept the United States from shrinking\r
Saved the ship of state from sinking\r
\r
Andrew Johnsons next\r
He had some slight defects\r
Congress each\r
Would impeach\r
And so the county now elects\r
\r
Ulysses Simpson Grant\r
Who would scream and rave and rant\r
While drinking whiskey\r
Although risky\r
Cause hed spill it on his pants\r
\r
Its 1877 and the democrats would gloat\r
But theyre all amazed when Rutherford Hayes\r
Wins by just one vote\r
\r
James Garfield, someone really hated\r
Cause he was assasinated\r
Chester Arthur gets instated\r
Four years later he was traded\r
\r
For Grover Cleveland, really fat\r
Elected twice as a democrat\r
Then Benjamin Harrisson after that\r
Its William McKinley up at bat\r
\r
Teddy Roosevelt charged up San Juan Hill\r
And President Taft he got the bill\r
In 1913 Woodrow Wılllllllson\r
Takes us into World War One\r
\r
Warren Harding, next in line,\r
Its Calvin Coolidge, he does fine,\r
And then in 1929\r
The market crashes and we find\r
\r
Its Herbert Hoovers big debut\r
He gets the blame and loses to\r
Franklin Roosevelt, President who\r
Helped us win in World War Two\r
\r
Harry Truman, weird little human\r
Serves two terms and when hes done\r
Its Eisenhower whos got the power\r
From 53 to 61\r
\r
John F. Kennedy, he gets shot\r
So Lyndon Johnson takes his spot\r
Richard Nixon he gets caught\r
And Gerald Ford fell down a lot\r
\r
Jimmy Carter liked campaign trips\r
And Ronald Regans speeches scripts\r
All came from famous movie clips\r
And President Bush said read my lips\r
\r
Now in Washington D.C.\r
Its democrats and the G.O.P.\r
But the ones in charge are plain to see\r
The Clintons: Bill and Hillary\r
\r
The next President to lead the way\r
Well, it just might be yourself one day\r
Then the pressll distort everything you say\r
So jump in your plane and fly away
