Have you ever wondered what it would sound like if Barack Obama sang the Rolling Stones’ Start Me Up but instead changed the lyrics to Lock Me Up?

Wonder no more, because I’ve got you covered.

I rewrote the song with my own “Lock Me Up” lyrics and then I got a Barack Hussein Obama impersonator to sing it…and the result is hilarious!

Yes, I know this is all a very serious matter and I do cover the hard news very seriously 99% of the day, but sometimes you just have to have a little fun and laugh!

So let’s laugh!

Here are the lyrics I rewrote:

LOCK ME UP

Uh, well now, uh, let me be clear
Uh, this is a little different, but hey
Uh, let’s do it…

(Chorus)
Lock me up
Lock me up inside
Oh, lock me up
I can’t run, I’ve tried
You make a grown man cry
Yeah, you make a grown man cry

(Verse 1)
Donald’s tweets, they fry my brain
Bars and chains, here comes the pain
Oh, lock me up, lock me up
Never stop—uh—never stop, never stop

(Chorus)
Lock me up
Lock me up
Trump’s got me cornered now
I was smooth, thought I’d always win
But the truth is, uh, closing in

You make a grown man cry
You make a grown man cry
FBI can’t save me now
Orange man’s the sheriff—wow, wow

(Bridge)
If you lock me up, I’ll never start
If you lock me up, uh, you’ll break my heart
Uh, Donny says he’s got receipts
Judge is pounding, I feel the heat

(Final Chorus)
Uh, lock me up
Lock me up
Yeah, lock me up
Don’t ever stop
Never stop—yeah—never stop, never stop
Lock me up, uh, lock me up

(Outro)
Orange jumpsuits on my chart
Uh, now folks…
That’s what I call… uh… change.
