Get out your best Irish accent and start your feet a tappin’ …… To be sung to; MacNamara’s Band . . . Oh, me name is Grumblin’ Cheney , I’m the leader of the scam Although we’re few in numbers, we’ve control of all the land We play at war, intelligence, and stubbornly we stand It matters not that all of us once hid from Vietnam Oh, the bombs go bang and the symbols hang and the warnings blaze away O’Reilly pumps the telephone and the oil pipes away Insanity Hannity tootles ‘n hoots, his excuses something grand! A deficit that balances in Grumblin’ Cheney’s scam We shocked and awed and told you t’was star spangles in the air We blew off Ol’ Bin Laden and said “Hey, look over there” Not Saudis, North Koreans, Pakistan, but something grand! The sanction starved Iraq we thought you’d take for Ol’ Iran Oh, the bombs go bang and the symbols hang and the warnings blaze away Michael Savage came from Hades with a venom sac to spray Mush Limbaugh’s our Paul Bunyon and his Ox’s cotton too A dab’ll do ya’ Wolfowitz, adds Zion to the stew Oh, me name is Grumblin’ Cheney, I’m the leader of the scam Smarmy are my answers to our Enron energy plan St. John the Baptist Ashcroft fans the bleating of the Klan We claim a coward of a medalled man who served in Vietnam Oh, the bombs go bang and the symbols hang and the warnings blaze away Bubba Jeb’s an easy lay, whistlin’ Dixie while we prey What record? We don’t need one, we’ll just scream about the Gays Our world is all Orwellian, when it’s night it’s really day Oh, me name is Grumblin’ Cheney, I’m the leader of the scam Matters not that Halliburton took each American for several grand Ronnie proved to us they’re sleepin’, Arnie proves they’ve dumbed down to The point where they applaud at every stupid thing we do Oh, the bombs go bang and the symbols hang and the warnings blaze away The fleecing’s gone so smoothly you can’t hear the sheeple bray................ |

Again, good poetry....but it would be a nice gesture if you were to include an occasional fact. Facts aren't necessarily part of polemic verse, but they're a nice window dressing, and would probably have improved this one. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |
