The Lyrics
The media battle raging over Bill O'Reilly's Faulkand Island War experience is almost over
You say war zone. I say riot.
You say combat. I say can't buy it.
War. Riot. You're sellin. Ain't buyin'
Let's call the whole thing off.
You say dangerous. I say embellish.
You say bullets. I say bull pellets.
Danger. Embellish. Bullets. Bull pellets.
Let's call the whole thing off.
But oh, if we call the whole thing off.
Then lib and con will have no part
In finding out who cut the fart.
You say persecution. I say partisan hack.
You say bias. I say payback
Bias. Hack. "Do it live" no playback.
Let's call the whole thing off.
You say combat. I say can't buy it.
War. Riot. You're sellin. Ain't buyin'
Let's call the whole thing off.
You say dangerous. I say embellish.
You say bullets. I say bull pellets.
Danger. Embellish. Bullets. Bull pellets.
Let's call the whole thing off.
But oh, if we call the whole thing off.
Then lib and con will have no part
In finding out who cut the fart.
You say persecution. I say partisan hack.
You say bias. I say payback
Bias. Hack. "Do it live" no playback.
Let's call the whole thing off.

I was working nights during the 1980's so I missed out on the Falkland War. Had to go back and read about it later. When I was in high school I was hit in the leg by a ricochet from a pellet gun. Maybe I should parlay that "combat" experience into a lucrative career as a song parody writer.
