Newt was working on his Contract late one night.
And the end result was an awful sight.
When Republican power began to rise.
And suddenly, to our surprise...

(We saw the trash!)
We saw the dumpster trash.
(The dumpster trash)
It was a junkyard mash.
(We saw the trash)
Gingrich did something rash.
(Allowed the trash)
We saw the dumpster trash.

From the lobbyists came money, which then greased.
All the legal bedlam, not of which was least
Were tools for mining their new mother lodes:
Weak pollution laws, and lower tax codes.

(We saw the trash!)
We saw the dumpster trash.
(The dumpster trash)
It was a junkyard mash.
(We saw the trash)
Gingrich did something rash.
(Allowed the trash)
We saw the dumpster trash.

The lobbyists were having fun.
Republicans had just won.
Their new laws now protected.
Anything that they'd done!

The seashores looked shocking; with digging, we found
Eyesores from new pollution laws unsound.
The critters were dying, or barely alive.
From a toxic soup that will give you hives!

(We saw the trash)
We saw the dumpster trash.
(The dumpster trash)
It was a junkyard mash.
(We saw the trash)
Gingrich did something rash.
(Allowed the trash)
We saw the dumpster trash.

Out from his office, Newt's voice did ring.
Seems he was bothered by critics' stings.
When asked what he did, he shook his fist and said,
"This is what happens to those on my list!"

(Newt's now been trashed!)
He caused the dumpster trash.
(The dumpster trash)
Critics gave him the lash.
(For dumpster trash)
He had done something rash.
(Did something rash)
He caused the dumpster trash.

Now fate can be cruel, Newt's no longer around.
And the dumpster trash has been cleared from the ground.
But we're not forgiving, we're reminding you:
What the polls are all for, tell them Al Gore sent you.

(Newt's now been trashed)
He caused the dumpster trash.
(The dumpster trash)
Critics gave him the lash.
(The verbal lash)
He had done something rash.
(He's in the trash)
Now he is dumpster trash.
