((MAIN HOOK))

MC Utterbot:

I need a lever, cause yo, I've got a fever

     I need a lever, cause yo,
     I've got a fever

     Need some accessibility
     to the health care facility

     What's the public option
     when the option ain't publicized

     I'm still waiting in line
     you better recognize

     your health is mine
     to deny it's a crime

     50 million in urgency
     So check the emergency... **CRASH**

((SIREN SOUND on utter bot))

Professor Heathwaite:

     All the other wealthy industrialized countries have universal health care systems -- that
     means, every citizen has access to health care. Yo! MC Utterbot,
     I think they need some contents to make some sense out of this nonsense... [fill in]

((MAIN HOOK))

MC Utterbot:

     The clock ticks...
     I'm talkin' 'bout one-in-six

     Only hard to understand
     with insurance in hand

     When y'read they propaganda
     s'hard to understand-a

     They take our activism
     and they call it socialism

     Or portray the U.K.
     as a place with no x-rays
     where you wait in line for days
     but it's worse here I dare say... **CRASH**

((CAR ALARM SOUND))

Professor Heathwaite:

     Excuse me sir, we only assist robots in this emergency room ---
     WILL SOMEONE TURN OFF THAT CAR ALARM. What's that? You are a robot.
     Oh. I'm sorry but your insurance doesn't cover that procedure.
     Please see the secretary down the hall and fill out more paperwork... [fill in]

Please see the secretary down the hall and fill out more paperwork...

((MAIN HOOK))

MC Utterbot:

     My pre-existing condition
     was no health care access

     I had to treat myself
     based on my best guess

     While corporations are playing
     me like a game of chess

     Still I've got to say,
     nevertheless

     I want health care parity
     and solidarity

     A social contract yo
     this ain't no frickin charity

     Tell the blue dogs "no"
     They're gonna have to go
     and when I get to the do'
     I wanna hear something just like *ding*

EVERYONE:

     Hello...
     Hello...
     Hello...
     Hello...
     Hello...
     Hello...
     Hello...
     Hello...
