Parody Written by:

The Lyrics

we're giving iraqis an election,
allowing them all to have votes
we're giving iraqis an election
protecting the poll sites with moats

they come to say who they want to run them
deciding who gives them the most
if George and Dick Cheney do not like him
you'd better believe he is toast

they're dancing in streets so democratic
spirits are high, much aplomb
but watch for the kid who's looking chubby
he's wrapped with a suicide bomb

so head in to vote in this election
and choose who you want to sell oil
we need several million barrels daily
get on with it, or we will boil

the oil for food program was an insult
we're sorry we can't take it back
i'll trade you a tank of super leaded
for fries and a shake, and big mac

we're giving iraqis an election,
allowing them all to have votes
we're giving iraqis an election
protecting the poll sites with moats

If it wasn't so true, this would be extremely funny. 5, 5, 5.
