HO HO HOPE you become a Newgrounds Supporter this year!
We're working hard to give you the best site possible, but we have bills to pay and community support is vital to keep things going and growing. Thank you for considering!
I have a whole album of these dumb songs. It's called Classic Hymns for Funerals and it's available on streaming services everywhere. You can even put these songs on your darn tootin' TikToks and what-not. Listen to it if you want to, or tell your enemies to listen to it, if you want to shock them before you launch your deadly attack. If you Spotify, click the link below and discover what my real name is in real life.

WHO KILLED BARACK OBAMA?
Words by Mike Brooks
Artwork by Peter Fuss
Everyone’s got hope so I’m sorry to disappoint
It might seem a brave new dawn, but I think you’ve missed the point
That nothing has really changed, all the attitude’s the same
And someone’s gonna want to keep the status quo
Who killed Barack Obama? Yes a culprit must be found
Can we blame the CIA or a subversive underground?
A terrorism plot to destabilise the West?
The responsibility lies with us
If you make a man an idol he is judged beyond his means
Bound by law and due process, more limited than he seems
Expectation weighs down hard, feel the pressure of the past
And all too soon resentment creeps back in
Luther King was shot down in his prime before the dream got stuck
Kennedy is best remembered for not knowing when to duck
Guevara’s face is selling shirts for market stalls and band adverts
A symbol now detached from all meaning
Who killed Barack Obama? Yes a culprit must be found
Can we blame the CIA or a subversive underground?
A terrorism plot to destabilise the West?
The responsibility lies with us
Who can save us now?
Who can save us now?
We killed Barack Obama, yes it’s time to take the blame
Unrealistic expectations helped him to his grave
Not a saint and not your saviour, just as human as the next
The responsibility lies with us
The responsibility lies with us
