I am looking for an episode of the Simpsons where they do a funny version of the school house rock cartoon.?

Question

I believe that it had an amendment on the steps of Congress and it was singing a song about how it is an amendment to be and that one day they will ratify him. Anyway I have the episode but I cannot find it in all of my stuff. If I had a name or episode number then it might help the search. Can anyone remember what else happened in that episode?

Answer 1

If I remember the precise name of the episode title, 'twas "The Day the Violence Died." Yes, that "Schoolhouse Rock" parody was LOL hilarious! I have that audio sample on a mixtape but I'm trying 2 save it on a audio file. Also, Bart and Lisa encountered their doppelganger rivals Lester and Eliza who beet them 2 the punch in restoring Itchy & Scratchy.

Answer 2

Lyrics
Kid: Hey, who left all this garbage on the steps of Congress?
Amendment: I'm not garbage.

(starts singing)

I'm an amendment-to-be, yes an amendment-to-be,
And I'm hoping that they'll ratify me.

There's a lot of flag-burners,
Who have got too much freedom,
I want to make it legal
For policemen to beat'em.

'Cause there's limits to our liberties,
At least I hope and pray that there are,
'Cause those liberal freaks go too far.

(spoken)
Kid: But why can't we just make a law against flag-burning?
Amendment: Because that law would be unconstitutional.
But if we changed the Constitution...
Kid: Then we could make all sorts of crazy laws!
Amendment: Now you're catching on!
Kid: What if people say you're not good enough to be in the
Constitution?

(sings)

Amendment: Then I'll crush all opposition to me,
And I'll make Ted Kennedy pay.
If he fights back, I'll say that he's gay.

(spoken)
Congressman: Good news, Amendment! They ratified ya!
You're in the US Constitution!
Amendment: Oh yeah!

It is indeed from "The Day the Violence Died" episode
