Thanks to our QTreeper realsauce who posted a great Tom Petty video, Won’t Back Down, here:

Suddenly I remembered one of my FAVORITE videos of all times – the one where Tom Petty understood FAKE NEWS, FAKE ENTERTAINMENT, FAKE SCIENCE and FAKE HISTORY literally DECADES before we did.
Here are the original lyrics, as nearly as I can tweak them to the ad libs of the video:
Tom Petty And The Heartbreakers Lyrics
“Jammin’ Me”
You got me in a corner
You got me against the wall
I got no – where to go
I got no – where to fall
Take back your insurance
Baby nothin’s guaranteed
Take back your acid rain, baby
Let your T.V. bleed
You’re jammin’ me
You’re jammin’ me
Quit jammin’ me
Hey you can keep me painted in a corner
You can look away, but it’s not overYou’re jammin’ me
Take back your angry slander
Take back your pension plan
Take back your ups and downs of
Your life in raisin-land
Take back Vanessa Redgrave
Take back Joe Piscopo
Take back Eddie Murphy
Give ’em all some place to go
You’re jamming me
You’re jamming me
Quit jammin‘ me
Yeah you can keep me painted in a corner
You can walk away, but it’s not over
Take back your Iranian torture
And the apple in young Steve’s eye
Yeah take back your losing streak
Check your front wheel drive
You’re jammin’ me
You’re jammin’ me
Quit jammin’ me
Take back Pasadena
Take back El Salvador
Take back that country club they’re
Tryin’ to build outside my door
You’re jammin’ me
You’re jammin’ me
Quit jammin’ me
Baby you can keep me painted in a corner
You can walk away, but it’s not over
Oh you’re jammin’ me
Quit jammin’ me
You’re jammin’ me
Well, you know what?
Time for an update.
STAND BACK!
Wolf Moon And The Deplorables Lyrics
“Scammin’ Me”
(Try playing the song while you read – it really helps!)
You got us in a corner

You got us against the wall

We got no – where to go

We got no – where to fall

Take back your crap insurance

With Obama’s guarantee

Take back your global warming

‘Cause we cut our T.V.s free

You’re scammin’ me

You’re scammin’ me

Quit scammin’ me

Hey you can keep us punched in a corner

But we will walk away, and it’s not over

You’re scammin’ me

Take back your patsy killers

Take back your gun grab plan

Take back your mind control of

Your lies in razor-land

Take back your crooked Clintons

Take back your fraud named O

Take back Loretta Comey

Give ’em all some place to go

You’re scamming me

You’re scamming me

Quit scammin’ me

Yeah you can keep us punched in a corner

But we will walk away, and it’s not over

Take back your Iranian cash grab

And our Apple as Tim Cook’s spy

Yeah take back your losing wars

Based upon your lie

You’re scammin’ me

You’re scammin’ me

Quit scammin’ me

Take back your Venezuela

Take back Paul Manafort

Take back your city slackers

You’re tryin’ so hard to import

You’re scammin’ me

You’re scammin’ me

Quit scammin’ me

Baby you can keep us punched in a corner

But we will walk away, and it’s not over

Oh you’re scammin’ me

Quit scammin’ me

You’re scammin’ me

The words are yours. The music is presumably somebody else’s. Enjoy.
