Northrop Grumman's Shelby
The Senate's shameless poster boy for "N0"

The Senate's reputation
    is for getting little done.
So does Congress need two houses,
    or could we get by with one?

The Senate's filibusters
    and its antiquated rules
Allow it to remain bogged down
    by antiquated fools,

Typified by Northrop Grumman's
    poster boy for "NO",
The Shameless Richard Shelby,
    who again has stopped the show.

In his Northrop Grumman role
    it's all about earmarks.
In his Friend-to-Bankers role
    he's a savior for loan sharks.

Shameless Shelby's pigeonholed
    seventy plus nominees
Why allow one twerp to think
    that he's that big a cheese?

Not only that, he's making sure
    our banks can rip us off.
Protection for consumers?
    Not from this dummkopf!
