In my office there are pictures of my children’s father
In my office there are pictures of my wife’s husband
In my office there are pictures of all the people of California
Who are six-time Mr. Olympia
And they look good
Pumping Irony
Pumping Irony
In the Land of No Smoking and the avocado
A big carnivorous cigar aficionado
You all know me as a person with enormous money
You all know me as a person with a lot of Hummers
So I’ll be the Governator of all the people of California
Which includes Big Business contributors
That’s Schwarzenegger with two G’s
Pumping Irony
Pumping Irony
He’s a Hollywood he-man who’s in touch with women
Who knows how many of them voted to put him in?
I won’t be swayed by special interest
Like experience or morals
My inclination’s never been to rest
Except upon my laurels
I don’t confer, I don’t negotiate
With my advisers I don’t associate
Don’t even thank my wife for all the crow she ate
I was welcomed with open arms a starving immigrant in California
So I voted for 187
To keep some Mexican from taking my job
Pumping Irony
Pumping Irony
He’s an alpha male Aryan for Populism
A conservative who’s liberal with his syllogism
In my office there are pictures of my wife’s husband
In my office there are pictures of all the people of California
Who are six-time Mr. Olympia
And they look good
Pumping Irony
Pumping Irony
In the Land of No Smoking and the avocado
A big carnivorous cigar aficionado
You all know me as a person with enormous money
You all know me as a person with a lot of Hummers
So I’ll be the Governator of all the people of California
