Ravens don't grin real well, but I liked seeing this, anyway.

I just had to sing it out. Don't think I've had that happen on a blog posting before.

I'm more partial to something with a more simplistic feel (to emphasize the utter stupidity of it) so, for your consideration:
(spoken, (US to California)
You're getting to be a big State
(California, singing)
Our state is just eight score
Each day we owe some more
Our debt is soaring
It’s CaIOU.
So many cuts to do
Each day is something new
To take away from you
It’s CaIOU.
Our state is turning (to crap)
Changing each day
With Governor Schwarzenegger
Making us pay! (for electing him)
Fixing things could be a breeze
Perhaps some taxes or some fees
But Arnie’s brought us to our knees.
It’s CaIOU, CaIOU, CaIOU
It’s CaIOU, CaIOU, CaIOU
That's us!
