There's No Governor Like Our New Governor (Ronald Reagan Victory Song) - Allan Sherman

The man I chose to govern me

And twenty million others

Is not from Yale or Harvard

He’s from dear old Warner Brothers

Yesterday they told him he would not go far

Today in our state capitol we’ve stuck a movie star

There’s no governor like our new governor

He sings, he dances, he acts

He legislates our cares away

We stand in line to pay our income tax

There’s no capitol like our state capitol

It’s lit up like Broadway

And where our state house used to be

They’ve got a big marquee that seems to say

He’s a star, and he’s thrilling

And he’s humble, and he’s great!

And his agent said he was willing

To give equal billing to the name of our state

It’s in his contract

There’s no governor like our new governor

He smiles when we are low

(The governor of Michigan’s a real nice Joe)

But no one’s ever seen him on the late late show

(There's governors all over who have college degrees)

Ah, but have they got their footprints down at Grauman’s Chinese?

(There's governors all over in the newsreel pics)

Ah, but were they in «Gold Diggers of 1936»?

(There's no governor like our new governor)

Stupendous, colossal, gee whiz!

And if our state’s a turkey and it fades away

Our new governor’s gonna say

«Movie fans, we’re all seceding from the USA!»

Well, that’s show biz!
