Some of the lyrics I was able to make out in the Obama Song:
Yes, yes, yes it's time---we all come together. Ha ha. Barack Obama. Yes we can be. Barack Obama. We are together now. Barack Obama. Yea, yea yea. We all come together now. Barack Obama. Barack Obama is making history man. He's coming to the people saying yes we can...Barack Obama...Seize the day. Today is a new day. Come on and through your hands up every woman and every man now. Barack Obama. Yes we can be. Barack Obama. We all come together now. Power to the people. So that we may develop a sequel...This is the meaning of outreach...
Barack Obama...
Yes we can be
Barack Obama
We are together now
Barack Obama
Yea, yea yea
Barack Obama
I like to pay respect and love to he...
Take my hand
Lets take a stand...
Yes we can.
Yes we can. Yes we can. Yes we can
Yes we can. Yes we can. Yes we can
It's time for the revolution
every woman and man
They tell you, no you can't...you tell them---Yes we can!
Barack Obama
Yes we can be.
Barack Obama
We are together now
Yea, Yea Yea
It's been so long now
We all come together now
It's been so long now
We all come together now
It's been so long now
We all come together now

Barack Obama

What a wonderful, upbeat song. Preparations here in DC continue for the innauguration. The nearest available hotel room is in Pennsylvania!
I agree Anita, it is nice. I bet it's crazy in DC and certainly will be getting more and more so as the time draws nearer. I bet flights and hotel rooms were booked before the election. Will you be there for the inauguration? Wouldn't it be wonderful if Michael Franti actually performed at it?!
thanks for posting what you can distinguish of the lyrics - i've been trying to learn them ... one adjustment for you - where you have "seize the day" it's actually "si se puede" which is the motto of the United Farm Workers movement (Cesar Chavez et al) which Obama borrowed (with their blessing) for his campaign ("yes we can" is the english translation).
