Parody Song Title:

"War Contract Dealing"

Parody Written by:

William Tong

The Lyrics

Satire about the Bush Administration's policy of endless war and no-bid contracts to their business cronies such as Halliburton, Bechtel, Carlyle Group, etc.
(instrumental intro)

Troops' families mourning what Dim Son has done.
Funeral music; Bush stayed away.
Bush keeps himself among familiar throngs.
For war, sold lies; and gets ripped today...

(instrumental riff)

War contract dealing (war contract dealing);
With more war, Bush's cronies get more pay (war contract dealing).
Neocon scheming (war contract dealing);
Now just see Halliburton today...
See Halliburton give Cheney big pay...

(instrumental break)

So many soldiers have died and gone;
With lives they paid, through two years gone by.
Bush faces recall, as he blunders on.
Rove fears that Dim Son's goin' to say good-bye...

(instrumental riff)

War contract dealing (war contract dealing);
With more war, Bush's cronies get more pay (war contract dealing).
Neocon scheming (war contract dealing);
Now just see Halliburton today...
See Halliburton give Cheney big pay...

(instrumental break)

Get Bush fired; start thinking bold.
Decide to remove him, Election Day.
And dream of the world we used to know.
Expose Bush lies and just rip away...

Just rip away... just rip away...

(instrumental riff)

War contract dealing (war contract dealing);
With more war, Bush's cronies get more pay (war contract dealing).
Neocon scheming (war contract dealing);
Now just see Halliburton today...
See Halliburton give Cheney big pay...

(repeat chorus and fade)
