BUSH IT! A song by Darryl Cherney and the Chernobles (2002)

[NightTrain]

First they went and stole the election
The Supreme Court made the selection
The corporations gave the direction
They said, "Bush it!"

He went and hired his daddy's staff
And a few guys from Nixon's just for a laugh
Now the world is his oyster to split in half
"Bush it!"

Now though he'd never been to a foreign land
And a map of the world he'd never understand
Right up his back went the puppeteer's hand
Bush it!

Bush it! The old president's son
Bush it! That's the way it's done
Bush it! For all of your friends
Who knows where this whole thing's gonna end?

Then someone goes and topples the towers
Took years to build, destroyed in hours
The FBI and CIA said give us more powers
Bush it!

Then the puppeteer says hey I got a plan
Though the guys were all Saudis, let's bomb Afghanistan
And camp out with our friends in Pakistan
Bush it!

But that wasn't the end to these tragic attacks
Someone used the U.S. mail to send anthrax
Kinda funny how it just went to Democrats
Bush it!

Bush it! The old president's boy
Bush it! He got a brand new toy
Bush it! Down old Texas way
Hey now, look at Georgie Junior play

Vice President Cheney met with Enron, of course
On how to manage our oil resource
Give 'em rolling blackouts and a secret task force
We'll Bush it!

Then Enron goes bankrupt after stealing us blind
But they left a trail of campaign cash behind
When asked for his records, Cheney big-time declined
He said Bush it!

Now before 9/11 Bush wasn't too bright
Did Osama Bin Laden show him the light?
They're both CIA boys and they know how to fight
They Bush it!

Bush it! To the limit and then
Bush it! And the Bush it again
Bush it! And make no mistake
There is just so much that we can take

He's got two drunken daughters and a drug addict niece
But that doesn't matter, he'll just call the police
And say you can keep all the others, but I want their release
Bush it!

Now he did booze and coke and he doesn't deny it
But he said that he quit and he's on a new diet
Now he passes out on pretzels--does anyone buy it?
Bush it!

Now George is an artist and he's trying to sell it
He's a bit of a devil--doesn't think we can tell it
But it's piled up so high, it's hard not to smell it
Bush it!

Bush it! The new president's song
Bush it! You know he can't be wrong
Bush it! Out of the president's way
What more can a real American say?

1. Just about covers it all in one song.

Cuz I am so square, I never heard of Darryl Cherney but I checked out his site and it sounds like music I'd like. Thanks for the heads up.

2. I'm kicking this, dammit!
