Animaniacs Presidents of the Usa Lyrics

Yakko:
Heigh ho, do you know
The names of the U.S. residents
Who then became the presidents
And got a view from the White House loo
Of Pennsylvania Avenue?

Wakko:
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
And he fought the War of 1812

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

Yakko:
John Quincy Adams was number six
And it's Andrew Jackson's b___ he kicks
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 Harrison, 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:
Eighteen fifty, 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 starts shootin' cannon
And we've got a civil war

YW+D :
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 shrinkin'
Saved the ship of state from sinkin'

Dot:
Andrew Johnson's next
He had some slight defects

Wakko:
Congress each
Would impeach

Dot:
And so the country 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 eighteen seventy-seven
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__assinated

Wakko:
Chester Arthur gets instated
Four years later, he was traded

Dot:
For Grover Cleveland, really fat
Elected twice as a Democrat
Then Benjamin Harrison; after that
It's William McKinley up to bat

Yakko:
Teddy Roosevelt charged up San Juan Hill

Wakko:
And President Taft, he got the bill

Yakko:
In 1913 Woodrow

YW+D :
Wil...
...son takes us into World War One

Yakko:
Warren Harding next in line

Dot:
It's Calvin Coolidge; he does fine

Wakko:
And then in nineteen twenty-nine
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 fifty-three to sixty-one

Dot:
John F. Kennedy, he got shot
Then Lyndon Johnson took his spot

Yakko:
Richard Nixon, he gets caught
And Gerald Ford fell down a lot

Wakko:
Jimmy Carter liked campaign trips

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

Dot:
Now in Washington D.C.

Wakko:
There's Democrats and the G.O.P.

Yakko:
But the ones in charge are plain to see

Dot:
The Clintons, Bill and Hillary

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

YW+D : So jump in your plane and fly away
