Hat tip to lyricist, TPM<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>To the tune of Billy Idol’s Dancing with Myself…<\/p>\n

In the ninth ward of New Orleans<\/span>
Where the water flowed like an ocean <\/span>
In the recent election<\/span>
Made an errant selection<\/span>
And we’re dancing with Ray Nagin<\/span><\/p>\n

In his mind he’s gone to play<\/span>
In his own Rue de la Paix
Cause we’re eating his cake
And c<\/span>leaning up his mistakes
<\/span><\/span><\/span>And we’re dancing with Ray Nagin<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>Dancing with Ray Nagin <\/span>
Dancing with Ray Nagin<\/span>
Cause he’s leaving New Orleans<\/span>
With his lousy performance<\/span>
And we’re dancing with Ray Nagin<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span>“Chopsley moves faster than FEMA”<\/span>
And “Fix Everything My Ass”<\/span>
If the mayor is talking<\/span>
Then the mayor is lying<\/span>
And we’re dancing with Ray Nagin<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So let’s sink a Coke and Jack <\/span>
And buy us back, Chirac<\/span>
Cause the levees are frayin’
And the governor’s prayin’
<\/span>And <\/span><\/span>we’re dancing with Ray Nagin<\/span><\/p>\n

Dancing with Ray Nagin<\/span>
Dancing with Ray Nagin<\/span>
Cause he’s leaving New Orleans<\/span>
With his lousy performance<\/span>
And we’re dancing with Ray Nagin<\/span><\/p>\n

Dancing with Ray Nagin <\/span>
Dancing with Ray Nagin<\/span>
Cause he’s leaving New Orleans<\/span>
With his lousy performance<\/span>
And we’re dancing with Ray Nagin …<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
