The Lyrics
SIC SEMPER TYRANNUS -Latin for "Thus Always to Tyrants"-
Ridin' Into Kuwait
Killin' all the Kurds
Sayin' he don't have nukes
Foolin' all the world
Gettin' oil
Gettin' wealth
Gettin' power
For himself
Gettin' mighty
Gettin' proud
I tell you folks
It's time he's taken down
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
If you think it's easy being number one
Try ruling in the land of sun
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
(Bagpipe & Guitar Solos)
Arms inspectors
He bluntly told "Goodbye"
Finally Bush had it
Said, "Now you're gonna die!"
Gettin' bombed
Gettin' had
Gettin' ousted
From Baghdad
Gettin' chased
All around
Hidin' in a hole
Livin' underground
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
If you wanna be ruled by a cruel regime
Look out 'cause it's rough and mean
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
Well, he fell a long way
Fell a long way (they tell me)
Fell a long way, such a long way
Killin' all the Kurds
Sayin' he don't have nukes
Foolin' all the world
Gettin' oil
Gettin' wealth
Gettin' power
For himself
Gettin' mighty
Gettin' proud
I tell you folks
It's time he's taken down
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
If you think it's easy being number one
Try ruling in the land of sun
Fell a long way from the top
Now he's living in a hole
(Bagpipe & Guitar Solos)

Fell a long way (they tell me)
Fell a long way, such a long way

5-5-5 bunker busters for you! Saddam Hussein is so bad, he doesn't even deserve Hell. Rather, he's gone to Taxachusetts (no, not Massachusetts, that's a diffent entity) along with Adolf Hitler, Mao Zedong, Kim Il-Sung, and other bastards who were too bad for Hell.
