The enigma wrapped in mystery 

Barry is, without doubt, an enigma in American politics. So much promise, yet so much failure. So much apparent talent, yet such lack of accomplishment. His "signature" accomplishments, those things for which we as a culture voted to put him into the highest office in the land, were such abject failures. This piece was inspired by the Hope and the Failure.

You Can Call Me Barry

Intro]

Yeah... Hope and Change, that was the brand 

But whispers in the dark, across the land 

You can call me Barry... or question the tale 

Official mess-ups mixed with theories so pale 

[Verse 1] (rap, quirky flow with sarcasm) 

IRS targetin' conservatives, delayin' their game 

Tea Party apps buried, who's to blame? 

Lois Lerner bounced, millions paid in shame 

But hey, just a hiccup in my flawless fame 

Benghazi burnin', ambassador down 

We spun it as protest, wore that crown 

Security flops? Nah, minor frown 

Four lives lost, but I owned the town 

[Chorus] (soulful ballad croon, sarcastic and wistful) 

Ohhh, you can call me Barry 

The enigma wrapped in mystery 

Scandals official, theories wild and free 

Fast and Furious guns runnin' loose 

Solyndra solar dream turnin' to juice 

But smile wide, yes we can 

Transparent king of the plan 

[Verse 2] (rap, quirky energy building with shadowy whispers) 

NSA spyin', collectin' your calls 

Snowden leaked it, watch the empire fall 

Bulk data grabs, no warrants at all 

Privacy? Pfft, just give me a call 

Now Larry Sinclair spinnin' yarns from the past 

Coke and encounters, claims that didn't last 

Polygraphs flop, courts tossed 'em fast 

But whispers linger, shadows cast 

[Bridge] (slower soul whisper, quirky echo on conspiracies) 

Birth certificate PDF, layers they say 

White House upload, but doubts won't go away 

Born in Hawaii? Or Kenya's bay? 

Malik my brother tweetin' the fray 

Fake docs and trolls, what a play... 

And Michelle? They call her Mike in the shade 

Rumors twistin', no evidence made 

Quirky theories, never fade 

[Verse 3] (fast quirky rap, mixing official and theory) 

Half a bil to Solyndra, donors in line 

Bankrupt quick, taxpayer decline 

Official flop, but theories entwine 

Place of birth questioned, certificate line 

Brother Malik with a Kenyan sign 

Hoax or truth? Draw your line 

[Chorus] (soulful with ad-libs, fading sarcasm) 

Ohhh, you can call me Barry (Barry, yeah) 

Conspiracies swirl in the night 

Official blunders under the light 

Guns, loans, spies, and birthright fights 

But hope eternal, out of sight 

[Outro]

So you can call me Barry... 

The puzzle with pieces missin' 

Official and myth, forever kissin' 

Yes we can... or can we? (heh) 

Fade to black, end the vision...
