Pop Goes The Eagle
Up and down Sadr City Road,
In and out flies the Eagle.
That's the way our money goes,
Pop goes the weasel!
A tanker truck with gasoline,
A tanker truck with diesel;
Blow it up, we'll pay the price,
Ouch, goes the Eagle!
Georgie chased Bin Laden.
Al-Qaeda thought 'twas all in fun.
Pop! goes a car bomb.
Three hundred billion for the wars;
Nothing for the people.
Bend over, take it in the drawers;
Truth is, it's fecal!
William's Whimsical Words:
So, why do we put up with it?
