And - after much ado - presenting McAncient....

It's a McMasterpiece as far as we're concerned.

John J King is the brains (& voice) behind this operation. He was helped by Andrew Roy, & Zac McIntyre (our musical talent) and Brendan Kara (he kept us honest - see here for the facts). Our videographer wants to remain anonymous but he did a great job. Stayed tuned...we've got lots more ideas up our sleeves....including an unplugged-uncut-sagging-all-over version of the song coming soon....

Seriously - it's all really younger than McCain

Well, mostly. Shopping malls - alright, fine, they’re older, but it rhymes…Hot Dog Weenies - we don't really know but it's funny. And, finally - radar was developed before McCain was born but really it wasn't used til WWII. Anyway - take a look below.

McAncient
Words and Music by John J King

INTRO:
John McCain will be 72 before the next election
Older than any other first-term president – I wonder if he still gets erections
He’s so old and seen so much, we thought we’d make a list and write this tribute song.
He’s older than a lot of things and so it’s really long

VERSE 1:
GI Joes, Barbie Dolls, The Air Force, Shopping Malls
The CIA and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves
Credit Cards, String Bikinis, Minute Rice, Hot Dog Weenies

Pop Tarts, Tupperware, Hula Hoops, Medicare
Nike Shoes, The Pentagon, Burger King, Teflon
Gatorade, Radar, Slinkies; and the urge to make it kinky

BRIDGE 1
Irish Coffee black with a big shot of Jack is even younger than “the Mac”

CHORUS:
Everything in this song is younger than John McCain
He can’t even get the facts right in his own campaign
He may be sleeping through the senate but hey I can’t complain
We could rent a better president…

VERSE 2:
Disney World, Disneyland, CocaCola in a Can
Sweet n’ Low, Tylenol, Batman and Thunderball
K-F-C, The Rubik’s Cube, Implants for your Boobs
The Atom Bomb, and “Under God” in the Pledge.

BRIDGE 2:
John McCain is older than the Golden Gate Bridge
He’s younger than Bob Dole but only by a smidge

Verse 3:
Frosted Flakes and Pizza Hut boyhood friends with King Tut
Alaska, Velcro, Air Bags, I guess that’s why his face sags
NATO, The United Nations; he’s as old as FM Stations
Israel, Rock and Roll, Keith Richards, Birth Control
He’s older than his wife and he’s younger than his mama
He’s old enough to be one and a half Barack Obamas

Bridge 3:
Spaghetti-O’s, Pinocchio, Firebombs in Tokyo
Casablanca, Bambi and the Wizard of Oz

CHORUS:
Everything in this song is younger than The Mac
He calls himself an expert but he keeps mixing up the facts
He’s either forgetting or he’s smoking too much crack
We could rent a better president
