A California Gubernatorial Election Theme

I had the wonderful good fortune to see Donald Fagen, Michael McDonald and Boz Scaggs plus an all-star band perform recently at San Francisco's Hardly Strictly Bluegrass festival.   They did a fantastic rendition of Steely Dan's "Peg".  I hate it when current news gets enmeshed with songs I enjoy.  The only cure is to write it down.  I don't have time to record this, so I'll just have to offer up the lyrics...

MEG (with many apologies to Steely Dan)
I've seen your picture
Your money surely bought it
This is your big debut
You’ve got 2thousand dollar shoes
So won't you smile for a camera?
they’ll need to photoshop it, Meg

I like your cheap shots

Nobody does them better

You run a skewer through
Cheap and mean that’s you

And when you lie for a camera
I know I’ll love you better

Meg
It will come back to you
Meg
It will come back to you
Then your campaign stalls
You see it all in 3-D
Jerry Brown’s your nightmare movie

I like your trick shots
Nobody shoots them better
Wherever you point them to
They ricochet on you
And when you lie for a camera
the voters will know better

Meg
It will come back to you
Meg
It will come back to you
Then your campaign stalls
You see it all in 3-D
Jerry Brown’s your nightmare movie
