- Who writes a book in which they brag about shooting an overly-excited puppy because it wasn't behaving according to a hunts-woman's expectations? Kristi Noem, the governor of South Dakota, that's who. It appears it's part of her ambition to be Trump's running mate. It also appears to be backfiring.

LYRICS
by Greg Trafidlo
How much is that doggie in the window?
Kristi hopes that doggie’s for sale
If she had that doggie in the window
She’d shoot him and cut off his tail.
If she had 100 Dalmatians
That's plenty of puppies to kill
It’s normal there in South Dakota
Says Governor Kristi de Vil
She still has a kitten and a hamster
They’re lucky if they stay alive
If ever they mess upon the carpet
They’ll meet with her Colt 45.
She says she’s not apologetic
That we are besmirching her “good name”
She’s packin’ to go off on a Safari
“Cause tigers and dogs are the same.
She did it to show Trump she is forceful
So don’t think she’s sorry. She’s not!
Her hope is he’ll choose her for his V.P
But it looks like her chances are shot.
Remember that puppy in the window?
The one you brought home for your kids?
Think back when that dog ate up your tax forms
Sent Fifi ‘cross the Rainbow Bridge
So hold your condolence for this Governor
And loss of a pet from her home.
I fear be it ever so jumbled
In D.C. there’s no place for Noem.
How much is that doggie in the window?
Kristi hopes that doggie’s for sale
If she had that doggie in the window
She’d shoot him and cut off his (waggly) tail.
ABOUT THE ORIGINAL SONG
"(How Much Is) That Doggie in the Window?" is a popular novelty song written by Bob Merrill and first registered on September 25, 1952, as "The Doggie in the Window". On January 27, 1953, its sheet music was published in New York as "(How Much Is) That Doggie in the Window".
The best-known version of the song was the original, recorded by Patti Page on December 18, 1952, and released in January 1953 by Mercury Records as catalog numbers 70070 (78 rpm) and 70070X45 (45 rpm) under the title "The Doggie in the Window", with the flip side being "My Jealous Eyes". It reached No. 1 on both the Billboard and Cash Box charts in 1953 and sold over two million copies. Mercury, however, had poor distribution in the United Kingdom. Therefore, a recording by Lita Roza was the one most widely heard in that country, reaching No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart in 1953. It distinguished Roza as the first British woman to have a No. 1 hit in the UK chart and was also the first song with a question in the title to reach the top spot.
"Doggie" was one in a series of successful novelty songs since the 1930s, following on the success of songs such as Bing Crosby's "Pistol Packin' Mama" and Merv Griffin's "I've Got a Lovely Bunch of Coconuts". Prior to the release of "Doggie", composer Bob Merrill penned "If I Knew You Were Comin' I'd've Baked a Cake". The original Page recording included the sounds of dogs barking, credited on the label as "Barks by Joe and Mac" (her arranger, Joe Reisman, and a violinist). The recording also features Page's signature multi-part tight harmonies, all sung by Page. Over the course of her career, she also recorded several other versions.
On April 4, 1953, singer Patti Page's rendition of "The Doggie in the Window" went to No. 1 in the US Billboard magazine chart, staying at that top spot for eight weeks. The song was wildly popular across a wide demographic. The song had school children "yipping", Mercury Records was besieged with requests for free puppies, and the American Kennel Club's annual registrations spiked by eight percent. In all, Page's record sold over 2 million copies. It was the third best-selling song of 1953.
Following the UK top ten debut of Lita Roza's cover version on March 19, 1953, the Patti Page version of the song was released in the UK on March 28, renamed "(How Much Is) That Doggie in the Window" (sans question mark), under Mercury's Oriole Records label. Given the delay getting to market in the UK, it was not as successful as the Roza version, entering the charts at No. 9 on April 2, before leaving the charts altogether five weeks later. The Roza version reached No. 1 on April 23, where it stayed for a single week. For five weeks between March 28, 1953, and April 25, 1953, there were two versions of "Doggie" in the UK's Top 12 singles chart. - ตลก
“The indifference, callousness, and contempt that so many people exhibit toward animals is evil first because it results in great suffering towards animals, and second because it results in an incalculably great impoverishment of human spirit.”
Ashley Montagu
Yep she's barking mad and we'd love to get hold of her in England!! We have a special way of dealing with people like her!
One might wish that the same service was available from the National Heath Service... Or was indeed compulsory. Well... Compulsory for some..."

@@magellanthecat Indeed! And one knows that Ian Richardson had the best one liners on tv, though I couldn't possibly comment!
@@bobbybigboyyes You might very well think that. You might very well think that indeed.
"He has that sort of cunning intelligence one finds in the lower classes."
"Thank goodness you were never so afflicted."
"Quite."
He had that rich voice and wonderful delivery... If Only he'd had more and better roles.
@@magellanthecat Indeed you Minxy Cat! I think that you should have a Lady Chapel named after you as well. Tis a tragedy of Shakespearian proportions that Ian Richardson and John Sessions are no longer with us. Ian had the best role ever in the tv series 'Porterhouse Blue' also starring David Jason and John Sessions. It is all on You Tube for free.
@@bobbybigboyyes Those were fun. Bell & Doyle aka midnight rooms was also quite fun.
Brilliant! I'm a dog lover; Kristi gives me nightmares.
Me too 😰😭
Because I love all animals 💘🐱🐶🐺🐼🐻🦊🐰🐩🐎🐒🐷🐏🐄🐿️🐔
Excellent and entertaining!! BRAVO!!
I hear she's up to 7 reservations that she's not welcome on also. She's decidedly painting herself in a corner.
Probably nearly everyone has reservations about Noem.
Bonnie: I can only imagine that the type of people who do like her must certainly be of the same mindset as her 😬🤢👿
So the first nation joke about a pot of stew. Always dig deep because the puppy is in the bottom. I dare not tell.🐕🐶
American politics has gone from Kind of Weird to Ridiculous, completely bypassing Sublime.

@@chuckheppner4384 Madness is is our current southern border situation
@@brrtool Tool, obviously someone has been blowing smoke up your ass. Our problems at the border ste4m from the fact that Republican donors are so dependent upon cheap labor.
If #PutinsPuppet had not instructed #PutinsGOP to vote against President Biden's Border Bill, there would be no problems whatsoever. Besides that, Southwest border crossings and apprehensions have plummeted since late 2023.
I kinda think “Kind of Weird” to frightening! This is the first time, in my lifetime, that America is experiencing serious danger. If we don’t all pull together and vote him GONE, our United States of America will suffer a huge beating. EVERYONE you have to make your vote count for the side of the USA and throw the troll down…..off Trump Towers should be good. ❤️🐈
Brilliant composition. Such a shame that the circumstances it's based on are unfortunately true 😢
You guys are the best, thank you....🥴😳🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶
What an excellent parody! Spot on! She refuses any responsibility, typical. 💔🙄😡
Vote Blue!
BULLSHIT
Loved it! You are amazing. Keep it up!
Another great parody, guys! Wonder how many viewers remember the original song and the Patti Page recording?
I remember the Doris Day version. So nice.
I do.
I remember the song. And it’s perfect for this parody!
So do I remember that song.
I remember the Finnish version, part of my childhood.
As a dog person myself, I very much approve of this song. Love your work. 💙 🐶
Oh, my, this brought back lots of very old memories. As a little kid back then, I loved those "novelty songs" for their silliness, even if I didn't always get the more adult subtext. Two other favorites of mine from that period were Eddie Cantor singing "Josephine, Please No Lean on the Bell" and Doris Day with "I Said My Pajamas (and Put on My Prayers)". My exceptionally tolerant parents probably wanted to sneak into my room at night and break all three records by the time that I eventually tired of them.
Oh, yes, lest I forget, Don and Greg's version is biting satire at its best. I have no love for Noem whose cavalier attitude towards the Covid-19 pandemic in her state and her disdain for public health measures probably contributed to many unnecessary hospitalizations and fatalities. She deserves this. Too bad about the poor dog, however.
I'm commenting for the algorithm because I couldn't possibly say it any better than you. Your comment covered the memories and the current despicable situation inspiring this wonderful parody. Hope you are having a lovely day/evening!
Don you’re incredible. I want to write with you! 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Brilliant, Don - when it comes to the temperature in politics these days, you act like an ice bath for a 105 degree fever patient! Just when I thought the situation was hopeless and our once-proud nation hitting the last swirl in the bowl, Don uploads relief and brings back my naturally positive vibes! ❤️🐈
If you knew how I spend my whole life doing every possible thoughtful thing for my dog (aka Buddy, in the profile pic) you would perhaps be shocked at how hard I laughed at this song. I just.... really needed a laugh. Thanks!
In Noem's head "shot" - contact lenses or crack cocaine ?! Another reason for weapon confiscation & jail !
Compare her look in the picture with Trump with her look now.
Thanks for the pick me up, I needed the boost. I know Cruella is the right sex, but her mental ability seems more aligned with Horace or Jasper Badun. Keep them coming, I greatly appreciate your efforts.
Wonderful video.
I felt guilty laughing at this, but I couldn't help it. Well done.
Thanks!
Welcome!
Whew!
This song has reduced me to a bucket of tears….i have loved this song since childhood, not certain I’ll ever hear it quite the same. You all continue to amaze me….
❤❤❤
Another solid hit from Greg and Don…I love it. The original song was on the radio when I was a kid, and this version is miles better than that one. You effortlessly crafted the words to fit that dreadful woman, just telling it like it is. Her story about doing special secret work on the tet offensive would make her older than me, which she definitely is not. So, she kills puppies, and has a complete fantasy life of all the important leaders she has met, and being some kind of secret agent. Well done you two…🖤🇨🇦
Thanks Tamarra!
i fear for her children if they disobey her. she's a monster.
Holy smokes Don! How horribly apt. This was so disturbing that it motivated me to rush out my own "short" parody on this same subject, based on the old Cher song - "Bang Bang (I Shot My Puppy Down)". Sometimes the only way to respond to something this horrifying is to laugh. Thanks!
I love my rescues at 2 and 5 yrs they are trainable
very well done. some people should never have children let alone pets. i wonder..........................
Its sad that there are so many people that treat a Dog, not Spelled DAWG as its pronounced among the imbeciles in my area, Since moving here in 28 years weve rescued 200+ dogs, dumped or escaped to our neighborhood... Weve had some exceptional dogs in our llives and would glady administer the treatment endured by the Dogs from their abusers... All the mire reason To continue to Vote Blue... Im sure all or beloved pets across the rainbow bridge are sing back up for your reminder that we the supposed dominate species on this planet, Need to continue to rage against the injustices and redeem the hope each pet gives with their love to each of us .. Thanks For an Amusing, Only to Real, Reasons to Vote Blue....lets save our Country, and all the pets that depend on us too.
Omg! This is very very funny
So is this Doggie gate
👌🏽😂!
This was good very very good. 🐈🐶🐴🐕🦺🦮🐕🐩🐈🐎
Brilliant
Very cute. Is the line about cutting off the tail a reference to bounties they used to have on wolves or coyotes? I would guess that many of your listeners might not know about that (as I don't really either).
Or trophies?
I do believe that there were bounties on wolves and coyotes because they were considered to be vermin and a danger to other pets and live stock.
I have an idea for a parody, the song the man from the daily mail? I was thinking maybe you guys could do a parody like the man from Fox News I don’t have lyrics of anything it’s just a idea that maybe you guys could put it into action
Keep Kristi away from that doggie!
Recommend PBS documentary "Saving the Animals of Ukraine".
Who let the dogs out???
Nice song for Cruella de Vil I mean Kristi Noem. However, not a single inquiry has been made on animal cruelty in this case. How sad. RIP Cricket.
Kristi is in a political doghouse who’s barking now 😂😂😂
Are the people in her State insane how did this woman ever become governor
Lol..
ZERO RESPECT FOR THIS PERSON....KRISTI IS POISION 🐾
That is insulting to toxins, venom, and poisons everywhere.
Incredible to think that ANYONE could imagine that a lack of compassion or pointed callousness would earn them respect! This is the level of insanity, and inhumanity, some MAGA politicians have sunk to since Trump became their 'leader'. God help us!!
She would just kill the doggie on a whim because s/he was waggling his tail too much - or something.......... Whatever 😬😭
Kristi Noem should be barred from owning pets or raising children.
💖💖
You forgot to mention her goat, who was shot for smelling like a goat!!!
Good luck to all her pets, big and small too bad she doesn’t seem to feel the same towards terrorists .
Vote blue
She knows Trump can't stand dogs.
Saddest thing??
IT'S ALL TRUE
Except perhaps for killing a Hamster
Funny not funny. Says a lot about a person. Clever parody.
She is horrible.
