Menendez Crying Song Parody Contest Ends Tonight
Just a reminder that if you’ve been meaning to enter the Don’t Cry For Me Bob Menendez song paroday contest, you have until 6am tomorrow morning.
In case you missed it, we started the contest back on July 16 after U.S. Senator Bob Menendez started crying, “twice chocking back sobs” is how Politickernj put it, at a press event in Union City because Joe Kyrillos is the pro-woman candidate in the U.S. Senate race.
We’ve got 8 great entries so far. If you would like to one, tonight’s the night. Leave it in the comments of this post.
In honor of The Guess Who’s 1970 hit, “American Woman”

NEW JERSEY WOMAN
—(acoustic blues intro)—
Mmm, da,n,dada, Mmm, mm.
Bobby Menendez gonna mess your mind
Bobby Menendez, he gonna mess your mind
Oooh, NewJersey Woman don’t wanna waste her time
Mmm, Bobby Menendez, gonna mess a-your mind,
I say N, ooh i say E, say W, say J, say E, R, say S, E, ahh Y Mmm…
—(hard rock instrumental)—
Bobby Menendez, stay away from me!
Bobby Menendez, Bobby, let me be,
Don’t come a hangin’ around my door,
I don’t wanna see your face no more!
I got more important things to do,
Than spend my time growin’ poor with you!
Now Bobby, I said stay away,
Bobby Menendez, listen what I say -ay-ay!
—(electric guitar interlude)—
Bobby Menendez, get away from me,
Bobby Menendez, I say Bobby, let me be!
Don’t come a-knockin’ on my front door,
I don’t wanna see your shadow no more!
Tears and lies can hypnotize,
Go sparkle someone else’s eyes!
Now Bobby, I said get away,
Bobby Menendez, listen what I say!!
—(instrumental break with psychedelic flashing lights)—
NewJersey Woman, she said ‘go away!’,
NewJersey Woman, said ‘listen what I say!’
Don’t come a hangin’ around my door,
Don’t wanna see your face no more!
I don’t need your spending sprees,
I don’t need your health care schemes!
Tears and lies can hypnotize,
Go sparkle someone else’s eyes!!
Now Bobby, get away from me!
Bobby Menendez, Bobby let me be!
Go,
Gotta get away
Gotta get away, now go, go, GO!!
I’m gonna vote Kyrillos
I’m gonna vote Kyrillos
Bye, bye Bob
Bye, bye Bob
Bye, bye Bob
Bye, bye Bob
You’re no good for me,
And I see right through you,
I’m gonna look you right in the eye,
And tell you what I’m gonna do!
Ya’ know I’m gonna vote Kyrillos
Ya’ know I’m gonna vote Kyrillos!
Ya’ know you gotta leave,
Ya’ know you gotta go, Bobby,
I’m gonna vote Kyrillos!
Goodbye Bobby Menendez.
