Thank you! I’ve been looking for that for years. I should have thought to check CSPAN.

There is no cool way to do the Macarena. But you do it anyway. Cause you have to. You must. It calls to you.

Because 6 7 means nothing and isn't funny. The Macarena is a (daft) dance. 6 7 is just a couple of numbers.

it's funny because the song is about a woman who is cheating on her boyfriend. it kind of set the tone for his second term.
