Kissing-up To Congress
Sung to the tune
"I Wonder Who's Kissing Her Now"

Ev'ry member of Congress has over the years
   been approached for a favor or two,
Has accepted the gift of a free lunch or dinner
   and said he'd see what he could do.
But there comes a time when the votes that he had
   disappear and he's forced to retire,
When reluctantly and with a catch in his throat
   he starts adding his voice to the choir.

I wonder who's kissing-up now –
I wonder who's being told how
Not to wonder, but vote
   for his blue skies,
   to buy his lies
   and his likewise –
I wonder who's lying for wine,
The wine that they once said was mine –
I wonder if he is kissed-up to like me –
Milk is cheaper when you buy the cow.
