The Lyrics
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
End they sure did put on his reign
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
They gave a knell, the tyrant fell
away his horror did dispell
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Iraqis now began looting
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
and in the Baghdad random shooting
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
The only thing the Yanks did care
was oil and how did black gold fare
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Partisans took battle stations
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
terror began on the nation
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Bombs explode, with smoke shroud
EU Left did them applaud
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
"Yanks now get kicked on their asses"
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
yell the EU leftist masses
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Jacques Chirac Yanks did whack
he wants Saddam Hussein back
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Osama saw tables turned
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
a strike which really fear churned
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Bomb in Spain, in the train
bits of people fell like rain
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Partisans they do beheadings
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
they don't care a heck of pleadings
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
doors were shut, throats were cut
and all was filmed in obscure hut
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Bush now is in distress dire
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Iraq is a grand quagmire
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
soldiers die, people cry
"Get our boys back home alive!"
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Baghdad gov can only shiver
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Partisans car bomb deliver
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Partisans, they want war
then a tyranny hard-core
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Saddam should have been maintained
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
in discipline the land retained
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Bush was dork, with that fork
genie out did he uncork
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
What's the moral of the story
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
this war has produced no glory
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
tyranny or anarchy?
which is worse - you can now see
Yanks they toppled Saddam Hussein
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
End they sure did put on his reign
tra-la-la-la-la-la-la-la

Minus one for graphic description of violence but otherwise good.
Actually, the Yanks toppled something even more threatening to America: Pedro Martinez!
