Slow Jam the News (Live) - Barack Obama/Jimmy Fallon
Hit me eight times
It's been an honor and a privlidge to serve as your president
Over the past eight years
When I first took office
Our nation was facing one of the worst recessions in its history
Since then we've added more than 14 million new jobs
And lowered the unemployment rate to under 5
Through the actions of my administration
We were able to stimulate the economy
And get our country back on track
Oooh yeah
President Obama stimulating long term growth in both the public
And the private sector
In 2008 the country wasn't feeling in the mood
It was too tired stressed said it had a headache
Barack lit some candles and got some silky satin sheets
Silky satin sheets now
He told the American people yes we can
Yes we can it's alright
He created tons of jobs for you and me
He's got one more left for Hillary
As president I'm proud of the many progressive steps
Our country has taken in recent years
Both socially and environmentally
The united states has been a leader in developing clean energy
To ensure the health of our planet for future generations
Thanks to the affordable care act
An additional 20 million Americans now have access to quality health care
And same sex couples across the country now have a constitutional right to marry
In short climate change is real health care is affordable and love is love
Mm mm mmm
Commander and preach
You gotta listen to my man bar eezus
He's accomplished a lot in eight years
Even when congress tried to block him
He found a way in through the back door
When republicans gave him lemons
He made so much lemonade beyonce started calling him
Barack-y with the good hair
Barack-y with the good hair
His first two terms ended in such a hurry
Wish he could go for three like my man steph curry
Now now there will be no third term I can't stay forever
Besides daddy's got a Hawaiian vacation booked in about
223 days but who's counting
That being said the American people faced an important decision this fall
The entire world is watching and they look to for stability and leadership
Now I know some of the presidential candidates have been
Critical of my foreign policy
I don't want to name any names he's talking about Donald trump
But I believe it is of the upmost importance to work along
Side of the world leaders
That's why I signed Iran nuclear deal
That's why we reopened diplomatic ties with Cuba
And that's why I negotiated the new trade deal called the
Trans pacific partnership the TPP
Now hold on there prez dispenser
Are you saying you're down with TPP
Yeah you know me
Look jimmy the TPP allows American businesses to sell their products
Both at home and abroad
The more we sell abroad the more higher paying jobs we provide here at home
It's that simple
So so what you're is this trade deal will help put every day
Americans back to work work work work work
Put it back to work work work work work
He put it back to work work work work work
Now mr president since you're here I gotta ask
Have you been watching all the election covers this week about
Donald trump
No but I have been watching my new favorite show
Orange is not the new black
Woah woah woah
I'ma need you to netflix and chill
I get it if you're a little wound up after all this time
I mean I can't imagine what it'd be like to do
The same job for eight straight years
Jimmy you probably never will
Does Obama care cover burns
America's best days are still yet to come
Thank you Mr president for all that you've done
This country's on track and that is a fact
Once you go Barack you will never go back
Thank you for leading the red white and the blue
That is how we slow jam the news
Oh yeah
