Cliven

• Parody of "Levon" by Elton John
• Parody idea by Doug Senko in comments on Google+

Cliven's wounded pride is like a crown
He wears it for the media
Because he likes to blame
Other people for bringing him down.

Cliven, Cliven likes his cattle.
He has a lot, they say.
They spend their days grazin'...
On protected land 'cross the motorway.

He was born supported by a farm
That depended on
Bargain grazing rights
On land maintained by Uncle Sam
Cliven's gonna demand his slice today...

And his name is Cliven
And he's really a good guy
And his name is Cliven
Wants his share of the American pie
And his name is Cliven
And he's really a good guy
Cliven shall leech on!

Cliven sells cartoon morality
He's got a lot of buyers
Cliven invents history all day
Stands on a stage attended by his squires

And Cliven, he only wants what's his --
Believes that's everything in sight.
Pick up a gun and defend it
Because who ever has the guns has the right.

And his name is Cliven
And he's really a good man
And his name is Cliven
Ignore his anti-federal plans.
And his name is Cliven
Cliven shall leech on!

And his name is Cliven
And he's really a good man
And his name is Cliven
Never mind all his racist rants.
And his name is Cliven
And he's really a good man
Cliven shall leech on!
