I Became VP - !!!NEW!!!

frabjous day! Callooh! Callay! The day has come and he's finally gone. What better way to celebrate that with a parody in honour of the new second-in-command. 
Given her appointment can effectively be said to be thanks to the inspiration for this song's original focus, I figured it was rather apt.

I Sat On A Bus I Became VP not from Horrible Histories

I’m K Harris, Rosa’s heiress
I picked up on her old fight
Sexist bigot in charge, racist killers at large
It just was not all right
What could I do to attempt a reprieve?     
Why have you heard of me?
What could one little woman achieve?
We-e-e-ell

I became VP
(You became VP?)
I became VP
(You became VP?)
You want to know how?
(Go ahead, tell me)
I became VP
(You became VP)

Since Year ‘16, when Trump took over
We faced a grim outlook
(It’s sad to see)
Black blood was spilled, and innocents killed
Yet no one brought to book
(How can it be?)
Even though I am a mixed race girl
Joe picked me as his partner
(Filled us with glee)      
Trump tried to shout it’s not allowed
You’d think that he would be smarter
(No, not really)
He failed in this, still wouldn’t desist
Yet he could not beat me
Was here to stay - would persist
And so I

Became VP
(She became VP)
I became VP
(She became VP)
For all folks to see
(She won it you see)
So I was made VP
(She was made VP)
 

We started up a campaign to ensure a correction
To bring round all of the voters and to win the next election
The USA I’m sad to say
Was suff’ring from dejection
Cause decency was gone and prejudice was strong
(Oh, our poor nation)

We faced libel, lies and slander
Yet we kept soldiering on
Fought for the soul, to evict the troll
Just wanted Trump gone
It all came down to one big day
November the third
(Democracy)       
The vote was tight even so
We had the final word
(Majority)
Our time’s come we’ve finally won
Biden now leads the country
He is the forty sixth US president
 

And I’m the new VP
(She became VP)
I became VP
(She became VP)
I became VP
(For you and me)
I became VP
(She became VP)
I am, I am
(Our country will see
A woman VP)
I am, I am, I’m the new VP
(We’re glad you see
She’s our new VP)
I’m VP
(She became VP
For you and me
I became VP
She became VP
She became VP)

Not About You - !!!NEW!!!

 I know I've used this song for a parody before but I think this version is a valuable message.

All About You Not About You not by McFly

It's not about you (not about you)
It's not about you, baby (it's not about)
It's not about you (not about you)
It's not about you

Yesterday, you posted something about this “flu”
You still need to wear a mask, It's not about you
Though you replied to me saying you know it’s “true”
It’s really not much to ask, it's not about you

And I will answer all your queries
If you force me to
But if you persist with your crazy theories
I must unfriend you
So listen close to the science, like we all must do
Just please put on a facemask
It's not about you, yeah

And I will answer all your queries
If you force me to
But if you persist with your crazy theories
I must unfriend you
So listen close to the science, like we all must do
Just please put on a facemask
It’s really not much to ask
Don’t make me take you to task 
It's not about you

It's not about you (not about you)
It's not about you, baby (it's not about)
It's not about you (not about you)
It's not about you, baby
It's not about you (not about you)
It's not about you, baby (it's not about you)
It's not about you (not about you)
It's not about you
It's not about you
