The Lyrics

"Never mind Bin Laden, Boys, we have priorities,
We'll vanquish evildoers to preserve democracy!"
So said Georgie Porgie as we sailed across the sea,
While we were marching through Baghdad.

(chorus) We saw, we saw no double ew em dee.
Hurrah! Hurrah! But we set Iraq free!
We were so victorious. We licked the Iraqi,
While we were marching through Baghdad.

How the muezzins sang out when the Yankees came to town,
We found evidence of mayhem everywhere around,
We even found Saddam Hussein hiding in the ground,
While we were marching through Baghdad.

(Repeat chorus.)

Yes, there were loyal Americans who sang a joyful song,
When they saw the Stars and Stripes over Babylon,
The Sunnis and The Shi'ites joined in with the happy throng,
While we were marching through Baghdad.

(Repeat chorus.)

"Dubya's armed forces are tilting at windmills.",
So the flaming liberals said - it really gave us chills,
They'd forgotton 'bout Kuwait and its oil wells,
While we were marching through Baghdad.

(Repeat chorus.)

So we struck another blow for freedom once again,
The world is now a safer place without Saddam Hussein,
Terrorists fled from us, now, they're in Afghanistan!
While we were marching through Baghdad.

(Repeat chorus.)
