The Lyrics
(instrumental intro)
On top are Bush cronies;
They all have to go!
Lives lost through Bush-lovers,
Katrina did show.
Whose friends robbed our treasure?
Pretender-in-Chief.
New Orleans discovered
They'd get no relief.
Mike Brown would snow-job you;
So clueless, this knave
Shirked blame when New Orleans
Became a wet grave.
"Great job!" said George W,
To Brown, who went bust.
Competence trumped by friendship,
We no longer trust.
Bush bugged by big issues;
He'll tell you more lies
'Bout Iraq and his failed road;
Policies we despise.
Mike Chertoff was waitin'
For people to flee
Before he took action
With his bureaucracy.
Inept cronies who dither
While poor people die;
No blame Brown was takin'
As he said goodbye.
On top are Bush cronies;
They all have to go!
Lives lost through Bush-lovers,
Katrina did show.
On top are Bush cronies;
They all have to go!
Lives lost through Bush-lovers,
Katrina did show.
Whose friends robbed our treasure?
Pretender-in-Chief.
New Orleans discovered
They'd get no relief.
Mike Brown would snow-job you;
So clueless, this knave
Shirked blame when New Orleans
Became a wet grave.
"Great job!" said George W,
To Brown, who went bust.
Competence trumped by friendship,
We no longer trust.
Bush bugged by big issues;
He'll tell you more lies
'Bout Iraq and his failed road;
Policies we despise.
Mike Chertoff was waitin'
For people to flee
Before he took action
With his bureaucracy.
Inept cronies who dither
While poor people die;
No blame Brown was takin'
As he said goodbye.
On top are Bush cronies;
They all have to go!
Lives lost through Bush-lovers,
Katrina did show.
