The Lyrics

As sung by Emperor Dubya, "deciding" to escalate his war on Iraq:
Oh, yes, I... am the Great Decider.
Deciding my war's going well.
I'll need more bucks, more troops, more trucks
If only, more war, I can sell.

Oh, yes, I... am the Great Decider.
Adrift in a world of my own.
I play war games, but I won't take blame.
Need cronies; can't scheme all alone.

I'll seal this war deal; no one makes us leave.
We'll wheel and we'll deal; what Big Oil wants, they'll steal.

Oh, yes, I... am the Great Decider.
Though staff leaves, and my polls went down.
I scream loudly, "Power I've got, for me!"
I'm playing my part; wear the crown.
Deciding when more bombs drop down.

I'll seal this war deal; no one makes us leave.
We'll wheel and we'll deal; what Big Oil wants, they'll steal.

Oh, yes, I... am the Great Decider.
Though staff leaves, and my polls went down.
I scream loudly, "Power I've got, for me!"
I'm playing my part; wear the crown.
Deciding when more bombs drop down.
