Introduction (Narrator):

On Aught-One, Aught-Four in Aught-Seven
Pelosi descended from Heaven
as Speaker Elect
installed to confect
agendas to start in Aught-Seven.

So, apropos Washington spreads,
to K-Street Pelosi did tread
for vict'ry high-fives
accompanied by
what's left of the band, Grafeful Dead.

Nancy Pelosi speech in rhythm/rhyme::

As Speaker, in order to breakdown
opponents, a Grateful Dead "Shakedown"
I'll use on the trees
on K-Street where leaves
are dollars to harvest by shakedowns.

From shakedowns, a bounty I'll take
from "Truthers" and Lefists who make
conspiracy claims
in Grateful Dead strains
in tune with my own Dreadful Grate.

Though Bush says "withdraw" would be fatal
we must echew warfare that's hateful.
We're certain "to stop"
is right, but if not,
when Dead we would surely be Grateful.

A mere week after Nancy Pelosi's coronation as Speaker, PoliSat.Com's Washington Bureau Drawer Chief has exclusively obtained a video from "inside" the "Shakedown" on K-Street for Pelosi's celebration appropriately accompanied by a lively rendition of "Shakedown" by the remnants of the band, Grateful Dead. (The video is available on this page in a variety of size/connect-speed versions for in-page viewing using click-to-view images or for stand-alone viewing using links in lower portion of the box on the left.) Beginning below is a partial transcript of the video.

On Aught-One, Aught-Four in Aught-Seven Pelosi descended from Heaven as Speaker Elect installed to confect agendas to start in Aught-Seven. So, apropos Washington spreads, to K-Street Pelosi did tread for vict'ry high-fives accompanied by what's left of the band, Grafeful Dead.

As Speaker, in order to breakdown opponents, a Grateful Dead "Shakedown" I'll use on the trees on K-Street where leaves are dollars to harvest by shakedowns. From shakedowns, a bounty I'll take from "Truthers" and Lefists who make conspiracy claims in Grateful Dead strains in tune with my own Dreadful Grate. Though Bush says "withdraw" would be fatal we must echew warfare that's hateful. We're certain "to stop" is right, but if not, when Dead we would surely be Grateful.
