First song I ever recorded, quality shows that fact... Election Parody of the Ramones "I wanna be Sedated"... A little sloppy, but fun. RIP Joey

Story behind the song
November 2000. My first recorded song ever. As with all the early songs, it is 100% on the BR-8. I was singing the words over coffee one day and decided to learn the Ramones ...Sedated so I could record my parody lyrics. Obviously, this was inspired by the 2000 election. It was challenging, especially given that I had not used the BR-8 yet.
Lyrics
I WANNA BE ELECTED
Twenty-twenty-twenty four lawsuits to go
I wanna be elected
If I dont win I got nowhere to go-o-oh
I wanna be elected
So put me in the Whitehouse send me to China
Hurry hurry hurry before Bills gotta go
I can't control the voters but can create some votes
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Twenty-twenty-twenty four lawsuits to go
I wanna be elected
If I dont win I got nowhere to go-o-oh
I wanna be elected
Just put me on a talk show hear me whine and moan
Hurry hurry hurry Theyll evict me from my home
Ive got so much ambition but dont know who I am
Oh no no no no no
Twenty-twenty-twenty four lawsuits to go
I wanna be elected
If I dont win I got nowhere to go-o-oh
I wanna be elected
Just get me in the Whitehouse it doesnt matter how
Hurry hurry hurry theyre coming for me now
I can't hold on much longer I can't grab all that power
Oh no no no no
Twenty-twenty-twenty four lawsuits to go
I wanna be elected
If I dont win I got nowhere to go-o-oh
I wanna be elected
Oh no no no no no
Waa-Waa WaaWaa Waa-Waa-Waa-WaaWaa I Wanna be elected
Waa-Waa WaaWaa Waa-Waa-Waa-WaaWaa I Wanna be elected
Waa-Waa WaaWaa Waa-Waa-Waa-WaaWaa I Wanna be elected
Waa-Waa WaaWaa Waa-Waa-Waa-WaaWaa I Wanna be elected
