PREZ SPEECH, JUNE 28, 2005
The President killed 'em
The way he always does
Laid them out on blankets
Past tense, they were what was
Gathered into piles
Arms and legs and eyes
Sitting at attention
While Georgie speechifies
There is no greater glory
Than to die for packs of lies
Hey, it ain't no secret
He who lives so truly, often truly dies
He wore his best mortician's suit
Wore makeup, was not pale
Georgie told America
"We got a tiger by the tail"
Got ourselves a President
A champion of the rich
He's a true friend to every shortcut
A profit margin's bitch
He should have his own show
Call it "Stump the Band"
Filled with all the Vets
Who've lost their legs and hands
Some folks suggest I'm bitter
Say I should cut him some slack
But too many dead and wounded
Too many lives attacked
It's not that I don't get it
This ain't no mystery
When a nightmare is played out
They call it History
