The Hollows - Long Cool Poseur and a Black Pres



Candidate night I was uptown
Working for the DNC
Sitting in a nest of prog men
Backroom battles riling me

Boot-licking losers on the Left Coasts
Zealous people who are never wrong
Just about to call up the BC* man
When I spied this hipster packing a bong

The blare of smooth elides made me open my eyes
My leg tingle started to rise
He was a long cool poseur and a black Pres
Just a 6-1 beautiful tall
With just one look I was love madness
'Cause that long cool poseur had it all

I saw him ascending the dais
Well a tall walking big black cat
When Clinton said I hope that you're able, boy
Well I'm telling you we know where it's at
Well then suddenly we gunned the sirens
And everybody started to rush
Falling for the Hopes and Changes
Well I kept the press blaming the Bush

Well Joe Biden was pumping my left hand
And She was holding my right
Well I told her, "Don't get scared
'Cause you're gonna be spared"
Well I'm goin' expat livin'
If I wanna keep my earnings
From a long cool poseur and a black Pres
Just a 6-1 beautiful tall
With just one look I was a wetness
'Cause that long cool poseur had it all
Had it all, had it all, had it all...

*Bill Clinton, "the first black President"
