A little levity for GD...my apologies to REM
Edited on Thu Apr-27-06 01:34 AM by blonndee
(To the tune of, obviously, Losing My Religion.)

Oh, my, my ratings
are lower than before
But you cannot see
The lengths that I will go to
Only PNAC can foresee
Oh no I've said too much
I've set it up

That's me with the backdrop
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my comprehension
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard God speaking
I think he told me to invade
I think I thought I saw Saddam.

Karl Rove's whispers
Every waking hour I
hear Dick Cheney's orders
Trying to keep his eye on me
Like I'm a dumb lost and blinded fool, fool
Oh no I've said too much
I've set it up

Consider this, consider this,
The end of my presidency
Consider this the slip that brought me
To my knees,
I failed

All my Oedipal fantasies have
Come crashing down
and now I've said too much

I thought that I heard God speaking
I think he told me to invade
I think I thought I saw Saddam.

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream

That's me with the backdrop
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my comprehension
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no I've said too much
I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard God speaking
I think he told me to invade
I think I thought I saw bin Laden.

But that was just a dream.
Try, fly, employ, destroy,
That was just a dream, just a dream, just a neocon dream.

1. Michael Stipe would be impressed.
That hardcore lefty would love the parody.

Hell, this hardcore lefty does.

4. Thanks, I was actually a little embarrassed about
how poor a job I did of it, but anyway! Wish I could do something like the "Decider" parody but I haven't the technology.

2. You lost me at "Oedipal fantasies".
I mean, come on. Some of us recently ate.
