Animaniacs President of the United States Lyrics

Yakko:
Heigh ho!
Do you know,
The names of the US Residents
Who then became the Presidents
And got a view from the White House loo
Of Pennsylvania Avenue

George Washington was the first, you see
He once chopped down a cherry tree

Dot:
President number two would be
John Adams and then Number three

Yakko:
Tom Jefferson stayed up to write
The Constitution late at night
So he and his wife had a great big fight
And she made him sleep on the couch all night

Wakko:
James Madison never had a son
then he fought the War of 1812

Dot:
James Monroe's colossal nose
Was bigger than Pinnochio's

Yakko:
John Quincy Adams was number six
And it's Andrew Jackson's b___ he kicked
So Jackson learns to play politics
Next time he's the one that the country picks

Dot:
Martin Van Buren number eight
For a one term shot as chief of state

Yakko:
William Harrisson, how do you praise
That guy was dead in thirty days!

Wakko:
John Tyler he liked country folk
Dot:
And after him came President Polk
Yakko:
Zachary Taylor liked to smoke
His breath killed friends whenever he spoke

Wakko:
1850, really nifty
Millard Fillmore's in
Yakko:
Young and fierce was Franklin Pierce
The man without a chin

Dot:
Follows next a period spannin'
Four long years with James Buchanan
Then the South start shootin' cannon
And we've got a civil war

All:
A war!
A war down south in Dixie!

Yakko:
Up to bat comes old Abe Lincoln
Dot:
There's a guy who's really thinkin'
Wakko:
Kept the United States from shrinking
Saved the ship of state from sinking

Dot:
Andrew Johnson's next
He had some slight defects
Wakko:
Congress each
Would impeach
Dot:
And so the county now elects

Yakko:
Ulysses Simpson Grant
Who would scream and rave and rant
Wakko:
While drinking whiskey
Although risky
Cause he'd spill it on his pants

Yakko:
It's 1877 and the democrats would gloat
But they're all amazed when Rutherford Hayes
Wins by just one vote

Dot:
James Garfield, someone really hated
Cause he was a__asinated
Wakko:
Chester Arthur gets instated
Four years later he was traded

Dot:
For Grover Cleveland, really fat
Elected twice as a democrat
Then Benjamin Harrisson after that
It's William McKinley up at bat

Yakko:
Teddy Roosevelt charged up San Juan Hill
Wakko:
And President Taft he got the bill
Yakko:
In 1913 Woodrow
All:
Wiiilllllllson
Takes us into World War One

Yakko:
Warren Harding he does fine
Dot:
It's Calvin Coolidge next in line
Wakko:
And then in 1929
The market crashes and we find

Yakko:
It's Herbert Hoover's big debut
He gets the blame and loses to
Dot:
Franklin Roosevelt, President who
Helped us win in World War Two

Wakko:
Harry Truman, weird little human
Serves two terms and when he's done
Yakko:
It's Eisenhower who's got the power
From '53 to '61

Dot:
John F. Kennedy, he gets shot
So Lyndon Johnson takes his spot
Yakko:
Richard Nixon he gets caught
And Gerald Ford fell down a lot

Wakko:
Jimmy Carter liked campaign trips

Yakko:
And Ronald Regan's speeches' scripts
All came from famous movie clips
And President Bush said "read my lips"

Dot:
Now in Washington D.C.
Wakko:
It's democrats and the G.O.P.
Yakko:
But the one in charge is plain to see
Dot:
Its Clinton, first name Hilary

Yakko:
The next President to lead the way
Well, it just might be yourself one day
Then the press'll distort everything you say

All:
So jump in your plane and fly away
