Tom has a song on Facebook that you might get a kick out of, it's aimed at Sara Palin. I hope he never gets mad at me!

I also loved "I'm changing my name to Fanny Mae". Steve Tilston's "A Pretty Penny" captures it from this side of the pond, It's here:- http://www.myspace.com/stevetilston .

And "Fannie Mae" of course is a recycling of Paxton's classic "I'm Changing My Name to Chrysler".

Sometimes, topical songs *don't* have such a short shelf life... 8-)

He also recycled "Lyndon Johnson told the nation" re the Vietnam war into one about Bush and Iraq!

It's hard to believe he is over 70.
