A parody of 'Cheek-to-Cheek' about profanity in national politics.
Story behind the song
Suggested by my friend Madelyn Carroll, "Ef-fen" deals with the double standard of the use of profanity by public fisgure.

Ef-fen
A Parody of “Cheek-to-Cheekâ€
New Lyrics by Steve Bryant
Suggested by Madelyn Carroll
Ef-fen, he said ef-fen,
And he said it with conviction and aplomb.
With the same mouth that he used to kiss his mom,
When he’s out in public, dropping the f-bomb.
Ef-fen, he said ef-fen,
Though he doesn’t say it half as much as Rahm.
And Obama wishes that they’d both be calm.
And not out in public, dropping the f-bomb.
Well he’ll say it the bathroom,
While he’s putting on lip balm.
You can hear him every day and night,
Just dropping the f- bomb.
He’ll say it in the chapel,
While he’s reading through a psalm,
He loves his church, but not as much,
As dropping the f-bomb.
Curse with him, his language always is free,
No fines they’ll decree, from the FCC.
For…Ef-fen, he said ef-fen,
Bet he says it when he chaperones a prom.
Or when meeting heads of state from Vietnam.
He’s still out in public, dropping…out in pubic, dropping...
Out in public dropping the f-bomb.
