With three musical remixes of his Iowa concession speech on the Billboard charts and his chances for the White House shrinking by the minute, Howard Dean announced that he will become a recording artist. "I'm bigger than CLAY AIKIN!" said the former governor.

I think I score SOME points for adapting the original, although you and Tiger both did find appropriate lines...
OK, a non-song lyric:
"I was taught this one by my good friend and supporter, Art Garfunkel. He also tossed in a little bag of seasoning inside it, but I can't tell if it's parsley, sage, rosemary, or thyme."

Jay Tea,
I did adapt the lyrics. I changed a 'would' to a 'wouldn't' and plural to singular.
(If I hadn't changed the lyrics, I wouldn't have apologized to Mr. Buffett.)
