Speaking as an old, white, straight, ex British military male (is that the correct adjectival order?)- why is this man not running for President? I would vote for him without hesitation.
I believe it should be ex-military then British, otherwise it sounds like ex British. I turned 68 today, and I'd vote for Richard Nixon's ghost before someone as despicable and incompetent as Trump. Nixon was less crooked and *much* more presidential. ✌🖖
Randy is too smart to get into politics. His talents are being used right now where they are most needed. If politics is in his future then I’m sure he will be successful at it.
Though I am thoroughly behind Kamala and Tim, President Biden has done some great things, he is a great man, and I think we all need to be way more thankful for this.
I agree. The lyrics do him no credit. But I would probably have written it in the same style - it's simply how this works. And I have written dozens of parodies. Note: Dutch guy, @iamthesnark, most of my parodies are about Flat Earthers. Not too active now, I've even done some about Frauditors (first amendment "auditors"), about the war in Ukraine, and the last one is about Walz and Kamala. On @iamthesnark , if you are curious enough.
President Biden knew it was time! What he did was waiting for the right moment and sticking it to rump!! And he did it with a smile. He stepped down with dignity and he did it with the grace of a true American President for the people with love from a great American President!!!! Much love to President Biden and his family, the man's only fault was he didn't want to stop working for all of us He knew what trump is!!!!!!!
Deep thanks to President Biden for showing the courage and commitment to our country by holding up VP Harris as this year's Democratic Presidential nominee. He remains a man of honor, and I'm proud to have voted for him. I will also be thrilled to vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz!!! #HarrisWalz2024
Add a bad part is that's now the third time he stood down. One of the reasons I was always afraid of him running again was I thought he might step down.
@@td4190 I can understand that but he didn't have to come back against trump to start with. He could have stayed retired but he wanted to help pull us out of the disastrous spectacle trump's administration was. He chose the right VP and I think the only reason he felt confident to step down was because Harris could step up. Yeah I was pissed at all the backstabbing but if Harris had been overlooked for some other replacement, you wouldn't see a happy voter turnout for the democrats. #HarrisWalz2024
@@td4190 What were the other two. I've never seen him cowar down from anyone. President Biden has always done what was right and honorable for the country. Especially now.

One of Randy's best - don't forget to vote America - I'm Australian so it up to you to save the world from the disaster of another Trump presidency. It scares me that only about 60% to 70% of you vote. Here we have to vote or get fined, so voter 'turn out' is always in the high 90% - voter suppression is not a thing.
What a delight to see a new Randy Rainbow parody. No one can do it like him. Our American politics are so crazy, but artfully done humor helps reduce our stress, and Randy is an absolute genius at this! 💙
💙Yes need the stress relief! As if it wasn’t enough to live through a pandemic (bungled at the start by the former guy) now this nail-biting election! Childless dog lady **VOTING** for 💙💙HARRIS/WALZ💙💙
For years I thought you would never surpass your "He is the very model of a very stable gen-i-us" song, but this time I think you have actually done it. I loved the different rhyming patterns, sometimes simple a-b-a-b, then limerick style a-a-b-b-a.
I watched this dozens of times. There's the brilliant lyrics, the stunning vocals, and the hilarious content. I also carefully listened to the background vocals. If you listen carefully, when Randy sings "Then suddenly the Conman was a hero...", in the background he says, "Didn't see that coming". What an astute observation to put in to actual lyrics! Absolutely brilliant.
The repeated “I don’t wanna see” refrain is so good too. It matches the zeitgeist perfectly. Every morning I’m scared to wake my phone and find out what the heck has happened now (being 9 hours after west coast US time doesn’t help!)
OHHHHHHHH The Democrats were all a'getting skeered, But the MAGA got a jerk who was plain weird. Now the Democrats took fighting stance, the MAGA folk are soiling pants, Because the MAGA got that JD Vance.... VOTE BLUE FOR DEMOCRACY, FREEDOM, SANITY AND FOR RANDY RAINBOW!!!
Randy, I'm glad you had to re-write this six times. Despite how frustrating that must have been, this is one of your best parody songs ever. The lyrics are incredibly well done. A RR masterpiece.
I agree with all of the above. I've watched this several times. I posted the video to my FB page and a very conservative person I've been debating gave the video a face-palm image (the standard reaction to my liberal posts). We're reaching across the partisan divide!

I was also in Oklahoma :) (also 60yo) heh :D Brought back awesome memories! Also a high school theater kid all those years ago - which is why I love Randy Rainbow!
Always a fantastic production, if Randy ever decides to write a musical for broadway--I am in. As a cis old guy, I give credit to Randy for putting a smile on my face and a spring in my step. Forever grateful to you Randy, never stop what you are doing.
@@Kath1813here's what cis means. "Cis old guy" might refer to a cisgender man, which is a term that describes someone whose gender identity matches the sex they were assigned at birth. Cisgender is often shortened to "cis" and is pronounced "sis-gender" or "sis". Most people are cisgender, including those who are assigned male at birth and identify as men, and those who are assigned female at birth and identify as women. Hope that answers your question about cis.
Sadly Shady Vance is now the one that's really self-hating HIS FORMER life views & choices. And will be BANNING 🇺🇲people from freely pursuing their own choices 😔
wouldn't it be great if they had to all interview's speeches and debates in song what they say will still be crap but at least entertaining and maybe a catchy political song like of old
@@Erin-Thor Wow would that be fabulous! I hope that it comes true. I would also like him at the Democrats Convention doing his Randy for President! That would be hilarious! But if he doesn't then he can do a parody about Kamala's run for president in addition to this one!
@@Erin-Thor I wonder if they could get a big combo band for the DNC. Swift, Randy, Beyonce, Green Day, Against Me!, Cher ... The sort of band that has three drummers, 7 guitars, you recognise everyone, and they have to rotate lead singers *during* the songs.
My son had this happen 2020 primary. We were all mail in early voters. His ballot was a no show, so wasn't able to vote in primary but at least he was able to in the general He's voted for over 30yrs
I sent the new song to my grown kids. My daughter writes back that now she has Oklahoma in her head for the rest of the day. I don't know why she thinks I should be the only one with this song in my head. Randy you are the best.
Anti-MAGA conservative here: 1 - Yes we exist, in sadly low numbers 2 - This is gold start to finish Point aside, I'm here hoping we can do the best for Democracy.
We can respectfully disagree how tax dollars are spent or how competing interests are balanced. But we can agree that democracy and the US Constitution matter. Thank you for your honesty.
@@Zaft_K Good arguing leads to better answers, but the state of discourse right now outweighs any issues. The nature of democracy means we have the exact government we deserve, and we owe it to ourselves to vote better. For the next few years damn the parties, I need to be an American first last and only.
Affirmed liberal and progressive here. Let's hop on board the same train and expect our leaders to start actually fixing problems again! Gawd, wouldn't that be nice? Less egos, infighting, and endless wasteful lawsuits, and more solutions out of bipartisan cooperation, PLEASE!!
@brianparnell2256 - Robert Kennedy Jr may not be as despicably awful as tfg, but he is nuts and no prize package whatsoever. His siblings and his niece (an MD) have appealed to the public _NOT_ to vote for their brother.
These parodies are so brilliant and filled with great gag lines! I need to watch it over on slo-mo, almost, to catch all of them coz I'm ROFL at one line and miss the next one. You're a BLAST. Thanks for helping us live thru these hard times with less anxiety.
I always love Oklahoma. (another Brit here) and that song was one of my favourites from the show. Randy is such a genius and never puts a foot wrong in his songs, every word is totally right. When I get a notification of a new song it makes the day. We could do with a British version sometimes.
Randy's lyrics are as perfect as the original lyrics. And he matches the tune to the subject! Sedition! Speaker of the House! He is a national treasure.
I bet he could fix a lot of songs. JD is weird, a snake got in his beard... I went to Washington on a Friday, On Saturday I learned a thing or two. I learned that those Rethugs have got no idee, Of what the modern world is gonna do. Oh, what a creepy small rally, DonOld is blowing his wad, That's what he gets for pretending, He's even greater than God. All the cultists are cheering like robots, Regardless how Orange Clown reeks. They think he's better than Schlitz beer, And line up to kiss his butt cheeks.
Absolutely brilliant. I do hope these songs stay on the historical record. In his own unique way Randy Rainbow is a brilliant satirist in the vein of historical greats like Swift or Hogarth
I just watched this for a second time. The first time was for the razor wit. The second time I was overwhelmed by the wondrous tribute to Oklahoma! (Shout out to my late parents who played the Broadway cast recording over and over on our gigantic stereo.)
I can relate. Ours was a walnut finished, Danish Modern Magnavox! Two sliding tops. One side turntable and radio. Other side a well to store LPs. And stereo speakers! We children thought we were in the big-time when my parents bought that! What a childhood memory.
@@KCmidwest-wm9jd I inherited the console stereo my parents bought well over 50 years ago and works just fine. It's in my living room and plays NPR all day for my dogs while I'm at work (smart pups!).

What an absoklutely brilliant suggestion! I love it! Please I am begging you Please suggest it to Randy! We could get another song from your suggestion!
Pretty dang fine work there gurl!! A "B" side? No, that's one of my fave R&H songs. Oklahoma has such a feast of great tunes. Keep up the good work, and thanks for doing all this.
Wow, never thought I'd hear a retune of "The Farmer & the Cowman" from Oklahoma. I love almost everything from R&H, and even I didn't think that song could be reworked. Great job, Randy!
@@tamaraclaw Your welcome. I've been there with a few of Randy's, trying to place the name of the song, and _no one_ in the comments will say. That's irritating.
I once wrote a fanfiction version of all (most?) of the songs from "Oklahoma!" (Stargate SG-1, if anyone cares. Point being, I started with "Farmer & the Cowboy". The song is a natural for parody! ❤🎶
The original SNL skits? (That would fit the 1977 time frame; the movies came much later.) The Coneheads were among my favorites! (Plus Samurai Delicatessen, Killer Bees, Land Shark....) The writing was brilliant, and like nothing we'd ever seen. Happy 50th anniversary year, coming up this fall!
dang Randy.. I cannot get over your voice....I've watched you thru the years but this song knocks it out the ballpark... thanks for keeping us sane and laughing...AND WE ARE NOT GOING BACK
I grew up in the 50's and my mother would stack the record player with Rodger and Hammerstein, knew this song since the age of 7, as a golden girl, still sing the Cowboy and the Farmer from time to time while doing the chores. Thanks Randy!
And let's give thanks for the PHENOMENAL depth and breadth of Randy's knowledge of American musical theater!!!! Like you, I grew up on my father's Rodgers and Hammerstein musicals.....I've known this song for 60 years!
@@emilywyatt9340 the actual lyric is “the Farmer and the Cowman”, that’s why Randy’s version is so perfect, “The Lawyer and the Conman”. I know the show and music well and I designed the lighting for the 50th anniversary production, - tour.

Always a fantastic production, if Randy ever decides to write a musical for broadway--I am in. As a cis old guy, I give credit to Randy for putting a smile on my face and a spring in my step. Forever grateful to you Randy, never stop what you are doing.
@@strezztechnoid as an 81 year old white woman I love Randy! I should probably know, but I don’t….what is cis? 🙃
Cis, short for cisgender, means the same sex you were born with. Opposite of transgender.
@@Kath1813here's what cis means.
"Cis old guy" might refer to a cisgender man, which is a term that describes someone whose gender identity matches the sex they were assigned at birth. Cisgender is often shortened to "cis" and is pronounced "sis-gender" or "sis". Most people are cisgender, including those who are assigned male at birth and identify as men, and those who are assigned female at birth and identify as women.
Hope that answers your question about cis.
@@HolidayDecorator Thanks for the explanation! That’d be me, but as far as I’m concerned everyone else’s choice is none of my business! 😃
@@Kath1813 - Just like Governor Walz said at his introduction rally in Philadelphia!
Joe is the most patriotic statesman in modern history and probably beyond.
Statesman is correct. A true country over party LEADER
Frankly the best president in my lifetime......born'58
@@palmereldritch7777I agree. Born '56.
@@palmereldritch7777 I agree.
He is no statesman. He was forced out.
One of your best, Randy!
I FULLY support JD’s cross dressing lifestyle choices.
He wears that eyeliner so the couch will find him sexy.
Sadly Shady Vance is now the one that's really self-hating HIS FORMER life views & choices. And will be BANNING 🇺🇲people from freely pursuing their own choices 😔
Then vote blue! lol

who would win a "guzzling" contest between Randy, Tim, and Kamala
If you add that clip to the history books, future students will thank you for saving them hours of reading.
Exactly what I was thinking!!
Books? What's that?
Your comment actually made me laugh out loud!
The lawyer will be prez! Harris/Walz 2024 WE ARE NOT GOING BACK!
I'm predicting at least 12 points over Trump...ideally more like 20. Go USA !!!!!
HARRIS FOR PREZ!!! WOO-HOO!!!
Lets do our part to make it happen.
When I have had a difficult week and am in need of a genuine laugh, Randy never lets me down. He deserves a freaking MEDAL. 🥉
From now on, I demand all politics be explained to me in showtunes.
#Metoo!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🎤❤😂
wouldn't it be great if they had to all interview's speeches and debates in song what they say will still be crap but at least entertaining and maybe a catchy political song like of old
💙🩵 Not Going Back! 🩵💙
💙🩵Go Randy🌈Go!🩵💙
I’m hoping for a Randy Rainbow appearance at Harris’s inauguration ball! 💙💛
@@Erin-Thor Wow would that be fabulous! I hope that it comes true. I would also like him at the Democrats Convention doing his Randy for President! That would be hilarious! But if he doesn't then he can do a parody about Kamala's run for president in addition to this one!
@@Erin-Thor I wonder if they could get a big combo band for the DNC. Swift, Randy, Beyonce, Green Day, Against Me!, Cher ...
The sort of band that has three drummers, 7 guitars, you recognise everyone, and they have to rotate lead singers *during* the songs.
@@lillysmith6123 - That would be beautiful! 🥰
@@ElizabethEwins-mj9zu - Randy could also do a guest appearance at the annual press dinner. 😁🤣
Please dont sit and wait to vote once you are registered. I have discovered my registration was removed. I had to get it straightened out.
Good message!
Thank you for your attentiveness! May I ask which State you are from? Curious
@@s.terris9537 It may be a plant. But an absolutely righteous warning.
My son had this happen 2020 primary. We were all mail in early voters. His ballot was a no show, so wasn't able to vote in primary but at least he was able to in the general
He's voted for over 30yrs
I sent the new song to my grown kids. My daughter writes back that now she has Oklahoma in her head for the rest of the day. I don't know why she thinks I should be the only one with this song in my head. Randy you are the best.
Hey, I still have Camelot!/Kamala! in my head for the past two weeks, so I understand.
Oh thats right, now I know the tune, one of my favorite musicals….The Farmer or The Cowboy song……lol…thanks for jarring my memory
@@rejoyce318I had to buy Camelot DVD with Richard Harris, since i couldn’t get it out of my head!
@@piratessalyx7871 Not Robert Goulet?
He really does well with the Oklahoma! parodies. Maybe because they're really good music?
The minute I see Randy a smile comes to my face because I know it's going to make me happy.😂❤😂
Anti-MAGA conservative here:
1 - Yes we exist, in sadly low numbers
2 - This is gold start to finish
Point aside, I'm here hoping we can do the best for Democracy.
We can respectfully disagree how tax dollars are spent or how competing interests are balanced. But we can agree that democracy and the US Constitution matter. Thank you for your honesty.
@@Zaft_K
Good arguing leads to better answers, but the state of discourse right now outweighs any issues.
The nature of democracy means we have the exact government we deserve, and we owe it to ourselves to vote better. For the next few years damn the parties, I need to be an American first last and only.
Hi and welcome.
Glad to have you on our side
Affirmed liberal and progressive here. Let's hop on board the same train and expect our leaders to start actually fixing problems again! Gawd, wouldn't that be nice? Less egos, infighting, and endless wasteful lawsuits, and more solutions out of bipartisan cooperation, PLEASE!!
I don't recognize the Republican party any more. Truly, I'm sorry they've left you (and many others) for this MAGAt garbage.
"When you're a childless cat lady (like I am) ...!" ~ Randolph Rainbow ... What do you tell #Ur-persian? #Ground-news/Randy 🙀 0:29
@azjaguardesign - I read where the solid gold talent's real name is "Randy Rainbow". Was that wrong? Is it really "Randolph"?
@@MossyMozart : I think that's Randy's real birth name.
Randy Stewart Rainbow is on his birth certificate just read his wonderful book and it’s in there
@@DrKARock - Thank you!
From a Brit who doesn’t care who makes the prez as long as it isn’t the conman my highlight of any USA election is Randy. These videos are brilliant.
@brianparnell2256 - Robert Kennedy Jr may not be as despicably awful as tfg, but he is nuts and no prize package whatsoever. His siblings and his niece (an MD) have appealed to the public _NOT_ to vote for their brother.
@brianparnell2256 - Look up Kennedy and the dead baby bear cub. Nauseating.
These parodies are so brilliant and filled with great gag lines! I need to watch it over on slo-mo, almost, to catch all of them coz I'm ROFL at one line and miss the next one. You're a BLAST. Thanks for helping us live thru these hard times with less anxiety.
I always love Oklahoma. (another Brit here) and that song was one of my favourites from the show. Randy is such a genius and never puts a foot wrong in his songs, every word is totally right. When I get a notification of a new song it makes the day. We could do with a British version sometimes.
Randy's lyrics are as perfect as the original lyrics. And he matches the tune to the subject! Sedition! Speaker of the House! He is a national treasure.
It was GREAT!!! I think we all needed a little Randy tonight. 🌈🤠🎶🎶🎶
He’s my hero.
I bet he could fix a lot of songs.
JD is weird, a snake got in his beard...
I went to Washington on a Friday,
On Saturday I learned a thing or two.
I learned that those Rethugs have got no idee,
Of what the modern world is gonna do.
Oh, what a creepy small rally,
DonOld is blowing his wad,
That's what he gets for pretending,
He's even greater than God.
All the cultists are cheering like robots,
Regardless how Orange Clown reeks.
They think he's better than Schlitz beer,
And line up to kiss his butt cheeks.
Closest for British maybe " a very stable genius" 😊
Absolutely brilliant. I do hope these songs stay on the historical record. In his own unique way Randy Rainbow is a brilliant satirist in the vein of historical greats like Swift or Hogarth
💯
I was just thinking that same thought! Randy Rainbow is a genius.
I just watched this for a second time. The first time was for the razor wit. The second time I was overwhelmed by the wondrous tribute to Oklahoma! (Shout out to my late parents who played the Broadway cast recording over and over on our gigantic stereo.)
( pssst guess what RUclips has the musical free….oh yes..one of my favorites)
I can relate. Ours was a walnut finished, Danish Modern Magnavox! Two sliding tops. One side turntable and radio. Other side a well to store LPs. And stereo speakers! We children thought we were in the big-time when my parents bought that! What a childhood memory.
@@KCmidwest-wm9jd I inherited the console stereo my parents bought well over 50 years ago and works just fine. It's in my living room and plays NPR all day for my dogs while I'm at work (smart pups!).
@@susanchurella3634 That's cool. Glad it's still working. Not many of those old behemoths still around, especially in good working order. 😃
Hey Randy, thanks I needed your laughs today.
YES!!!! Another Randy Rainbow masterpiece!!!!!

As a proud cat lady, this made me so very happy. Since cats and cat ladies seem to be targets of the GOP, it would be awesome to see you do a parody of one of the songs from CATS!! Love you Randy keep making us smile!! 😊
He did years ago. Alternative Facts (Jelicle Cats).
Never, ever cross a cat lady (or in my case a cats and dogs lady)
yep cat lady's and couches
@@KineticWorksDance That's one of my favorites. All of the ones he does with Kellyanne Conway are hilarious to me and make her look crazy.

Protect this man at all cost.
"What are we supposed to tell our Persians?" Holy frock, the song hasn't even started yet and I'm already cackling🤣! I've been waiting for this song for literal months and Randy, you didn't disappoint. I can't even imagine how exasperated you've been attempting to get this song out while the crazy has been cranked up to 110%. May you be blessed with extra sparkles!
I still have KAMALA (Camelot) swirling in my head! I sing it while doing dishes, cleaning the catbox -Yes I'm one of those.

There are a lot of us around 😺😊

I don’t even like Camelot the musical but dang was that KAMALA catchy.

I just freaking love this guy. Randy -- you make it all better!
Thank you, President Biden!! You are our hero
Biden stepped back when he thought it was best for the country, trump roused up a revolt when he thought it was best for himself.
Agreed! Our selfless hero who put our country before himself. Unlike someone else I can think of… 😒
Yes, he is
How is he a hero?

Happiness is a new Randy Rainbow song!
Make America Fabulous Again!
I've always loved Oklahoma, but this sent my love for the musical through the roof. This is your best video yet,Randy.😂
Welcome back, Randy…we’ve missed you!
Why does our beloved Mr Rainbow not have at least 1 million subscribers?
Because he has been silent for months at a time lately. Hard to get new subs if you have no new material.
He doesn't put out shit that's why
@@CATSWITHKYLA exactly! everything he puts out is top notch, even if it takes a little longer to perfect.
Randy Rainbow is back, all is right with the world.
I SURE MISSED YOU, RANDY!! WELCOME BACK!
I AM SO HERE FOR THIS RIGHT NOW
Ah, another song by Randy unexpectedly. Even thought I should be asleep, it's worth the drag on the day just to watch this.
Giddy on up partner! Randy is back in town!
Pretty dang fine work there gurl!! A "B" side? No, that's one of my fave R&H songs. Oklahoma has such a feast of great tunes. Keep up the good work, and thanks for doing all this.
And it is up to us! Thanks, Randy🌈💙🌊💙🌊💙🌊💙
Wow, never thought I'd hear a retune of "The Farmer & the Cowman" from Oklahoma. I love almost everything from R&H, and even I didn't think that song could be reworked. Great job, Randy!
Thanks for telling the title of the song...I figured it was from "Oklahoma"
@@tamaraclaw Your welcome. I've been there with a few of Randy's, trying to place the name of the song, and _no one_ in the comments will say. That's irritating.
I once wrote a fanfiction version of all (most?) of the songs from "Oklahoma!" (Stargate SG-1, if anyone cares. Point being, I started with "Farmer & the Cowboy". The song is a natural for parody! ❤🎶
@@jantiquefielding6661 Yeah. I was boutta say, I'd be real impressed if you managed to squeeze "Poor* Judd is ----" in there
Edit: wrong word
I'll bet Randy could work wonders with "Everything's Up To Date In Kansas City."
Yes! Back in 1977, I wrote the Coneheads and the Gumbies. Love these.
You wrote the movies???! Just rewatched the coneheads movie a few days ago…
The original SNL skits? (That would fit the 1977 time frame; the movies came much later.) The Coneheads were among my favorites! (Plus Samurai Delicatessen, Killer Bees, Land Shark....) The writing was brilliant, and like nothing we'd ever seen. Happy 50th anniversary year, coming up this fall!
Gumbies as in Monty Python?
Brilliant! Thank you, good sir.
dang Randy.. I cannot get over your voice....I've watched you thru the years but this song knocks it out the ballpark... thanks for keeping us sane and laughing...AND WE ARE NOT GOING BACK
he must be doing a lot of throat exercises.
I grew up in the 50's and my mother would stack the record player with Rodger and Hammerstein, knew this song since the age of 7, as a golden girl, still sing the Cowboy and the Farmer from time to time while doing the chores. Thanks Randy!
And let's give thanks for the PHENOMENAL depth and breadth of Randy's knowledge of American musical theater!!!! Like you, I grew up on my father's Rodgers and Hammerstein musicals.....I've known this song for 60 years!
It’s the Farmer and the Cowman.
@@marciamadeira846I was wondering Thanks
@@emilywyatt9340 the actual lyric is “the Farmer and the Cowman”, that’s why Randy’s version is so perfect, “The Lawyer and the Conman”. I know the show and music well and I designed the lighting for the 50th anniversary production, - tour.
I sing it a lot too🙃
