Hannity In My Pocket
October 15th, 2010
Inspired by Christine O’Donnell Tells GOPers: ‘I’ve Got Sean Hannity In My Back Pocket’ (Howard Fineman, Huffington Post 10/14/10). Christine O’Donnell goes from channeling Christine Amphlett to channeling Alanis Morissette (check out my modified lyrics to her Hand In My Pocket below).
“I’ve got Sean Hannity in my back pocket, and I can go on his show and raise money by attacking you guys.” – Christine O’Donnell at a strategy meeting with GOP insiders

Hand In My Pocket |
Hannity In My Pocket |
|
I’m broke but I’m happy |
I’m broke but I’m happy |
|
I’m poor but I’m kind |
I’m poor but unkind |
|
I’m short but I’m healthy, yeah |
I think sex is unhealthy, yeah |
|
|
|
|
I’m high but I’m grounded |
I hate activist judges |
|
I’m sane but I’m overwhelmed |
But can’t name a single case. |
|
I’m lost but I’m hopeful baby |
I’m lost and I’m hopeless baby |
|
What it all comes down to |
What it all comes down to |
|
Is that everything’s gonna be fine fine fine |
Is that everything’s gonna be fine fine fine |
|
’cause I’ve got one hand in my pocket |
’cause I’ve got Sean Hannity in my pocket |
|
And the other one is giving a high five |
And he’s giving me a high five. |
|
|
|
|
I feel drunk but I’m sober |
I act drunk but I’m sober |
|
I’m young and I’m underpaid |
I’m young but I’m chaste |
|
I’m tired but I’m working, yeah |
I’m tired of campaigning, yeah |
|
I care but I’m restless |
I’m not like you heard |
|
I’m here but I’m really gone |
I’m me but I’m really you |
|
I’m wrong and I’m sorry baby |
I’m wrong and I’m sorry baby |
|
|
|
|
What it all comes down to |
What it all comes down to |
|
Is that everything’s gonna be quite alright |
Is that everything’s gonna be quite alright |
|
’cause I’ve got one hand in my pocket |
’cause I’ve got Sean Hannity in my pocket |
|
And the other one is flicking a cigarette |
And I can use him to raise money. |
|
|
|
|
And what it all comes down to |
And what it all comes down to |
|
Is that I haven’t got it all figured out just yet |
Is that I haven’t got it all figured out just yet |
|
’cause I’ve got one hand in my pocket |
’cause I’ve got Sean Hannity in my pocket |
|
And the other one is giving the peace sign |
And we’ll get those darn GOP insiders. |
|
|
|
|
I’m free but I’m focused |
I love eating meatballs |
|
I’m green but I’m wise |
I think lab mice have human brains |
|
I’m hard but I’m friendly baby |
Why aren’t monkeys are still evolving? |
|
I’m sad but I’m laughing |
I’m sad but I’m laughing |
|
I’m brave but I’m chickenshit |
I rave but I’m not a witch. |
|
I’m sick but I’m pretty baby |
I’m pure but I’m pretty baby |
|
|
|
|
And what it all boils down to |
And what it all boils down to |
|
Is that no one’s really got it figured out just yet |
Is that no one’s really got it figured out just yet |
|
’cause I’ve got one hand in my pocket |
’cause I’ve got Sean Hannity in my pocket |
|
And the other one is playing the piano |
And he never asks me any hard questions. |
|
|
|
|
And what it all comes down to my friends |
And what it all comes down to my friends |
|
Is that everything’s just fine fine fine |
Is that everything’s just fine fine fine |
|
’cause I’ve got one hand in my pocket |
’cause I’ve got Sean Hannity in my pocket |
|
And the other one is hailing a taxi cab |
I’ll go to Washington and do what you’d do. |

Here’s Howard Fineman last night on Countdown.
Here’s your theme music, Hand In My Pocket by Alanis Morissette. I was sure Keith would play Howard out with this, but since he didn’t, I’ll do the honors with my own little Hannity in My Pocket medley (thanks to the Young Turks for assembling some of the clips).
Feeling ambitious? Then use this karaoke version (or one of these) to re-record the song with the modified lyrics above (or your own), email me the link, and I’ll post it. In case you missed it, I worked some of the text from O’Donnell’s original ad (shown in full below, along with the text) into the song.
