Sympathy for the W

A song for the outgoing administration, in Bush's voice. Didn't even have to change all that many words. I think you know the tune.

Please allow me to introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and haste
I've been around for a long eight years
sent many a soldiers' soul to waste

I wasn't round during 911
for our moment of doubt and pain
Made damn sure that Patriot Act
took our rights Gitmo stained our name

Pleased to meet you
Don't misremember my name
But whats puzzling you
Is the language of my game


Started a war in Baghdad
When I saw it was a time for a change
Killed Saddam and his Generals
in Abu Gharib, they screamed in pain
I wore a suit on a carrier plank
said "Mission Accomplished" while the bodies stank


Pleased to meet you
Don't misremember my name
Ah, whats puzzling you
Is the science in my game


I watched in shame
when Katrina came while New Orleans screamed in pain
I shouted out,
Where were the WMD's?
When after all
They were Dick and me


Let me please introduce myself
I'm a man of wealth and waste
I laid traps for Democrats
Who's bills I veto every day


Pleased to meet you
Don't misremember my name
But whats puzzling you
Is the failure of my game

Just as every immigrant's a criminal
And all right wingers saints
So like Poppy
Just call me Junior
cause I'm in need of some restraint


So if you meet me
Have some courtesy
Don't throw shoes at my face
Attorneys, support my policies
Or Alberto'll lay your jobs to waste

Pleased to meet you
Don't misrember my name, um yeah
But whats puzzling you
Is the thinking in my game

Tell me Rummy, whats my name
Tell me Condi, can ya guess my name
Tell me Wolfie, whats my name
I won't say it, but I'm to blame
