SIMON AND GARFUNKEL’S ‘THE BOLLIXER’ [View All]

[Don Davis]

I am just a rich boy
And my story’s often told,
I have squandered my existence
For the hellhole that is Baghdad,
Such is regime change,
Lies and obsessed
So a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest

Mmmmmmmmmmm - Mmmmmmmmmmm - Mmmmmmmmmmm

When I left my home
And my family,
I was no more than a man-child
In the company of right-wingers
In the chaos of a campaign
Running for Governor …
Using Rove,
Seeking out the poor Latinos
To try to boost my sagging polls,
Feigning interest in
Their pathetic tales of woe

Iraq goes BOOM! BOOM! — All our Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie - Lie, Lie, Lies, BOOM! — All our Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie — Lie-Lie-Lie-Lie-Lies

Asking only to be President
I come looking for some votes,
But I get no majority
Just a fix from all the whores
Sitting on the Supreme Court
I do declare,
There were times I screwed Al Gore so bad
I felt like I was queer

Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie

Wah, Wah — Wah-Wah-Wah-Wah — Waaaah — Waaaah — Wah-Wah-Wah-Wah-Wah

Iraq goes BOOM! BOOM! — All our Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie - Lie, Lie, Lies, BOOM! — All our Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie — Lie-Lie-Lie-Lie-Lies

Then I’m laying out my Crawford clothes
And wishing I was gone
Going home
Where the vicious D.C. press corps
Isn’t grilling me,
Drilling me,
Stumbling home

In the clearing stands a Cheney,
And a Neo-con by trade
And he wears a pair of blinders
To every fact that laid him bare
And undercut him – till he cried out:
“I don’t have any shame,”
“I’m invading, I’m invading”
But the mess he makes remains

Mmmmmmmmmmm - Mmmmmmmmmmm

Iraq goes BOOM! BOOM! — All our Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie - Lie, Lie, Lies, BOOM! — All our Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie - Lie-Lie-Lie-Lie-Lies, BOOM!

Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie - Lie, Lie, Lies, BOOM! — All our Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie, Lie - Lie-Lie-Lie-Lie-Lies
