| Parody Written by: | MasonR |
A serious parody. Dedicated to the troops in Iraq, doing their best under impossible conditions. May they stay safe and come home soon.
Condoleeza Rice: Huh? Quit Iraq?
Dick Cheney: What for?
George Bush: I'm trying to think
We were good, soldiers brave
"Mission accomplished"
All this PR buzz, bring 'em on
Showed our happy Humvees
Then we searched everywhere, no weapons
President screwed up, we fight on
And we can't go home
Our leave has been revoked
Mismanaged and tired and nothing has been gained
Mismanaged and tired and nothing has been gained
nothing gained
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're gunned down in Allah's name
Our mission is unclear
And we come home in a wood box,
Family tears
It's a wild war, built on great deceit
And we fight on, but we're running out of time
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
Now another soldier's dead
Must fabricate good news
Say he fought just like Rambo
Though that's not true
It's a wild war. Osama's still at large.
The old men make war. We're sacrificed again.
And we can't go home
Our leave has been revoked
Mismanaged and tired and nothing has been gained
Mismanaged and tired and nothing has been gained
nothing gained
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
Oh no! Congress tried
But veto signed
The dead meat club
Dick Cheney: What for?
George Bush: I'm trying to think
We were good, soldiers brave
"Mission accomplished"
All this PR buzz, bring 'em on
Showed our happy Humvees
Then we searched everywhere, no weapons
President screwed up, we fight on
And we can't go home
Our leave has been revoked
Mismanaged and tired and nothing has been gained
Mismanaged and tired and nothing has been gained
nothing gained
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're gunned down in Allah's name
Our mission is unclear
And we come home in a wood box,
Family tears
It's a wild war, built on great deceit
And we fight on, but we're running out of time
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
Now another soldier's dead
Must fabricate good news
Say he fought just like Rambo
Though that's not true
It's a wild war. Osama's still at large.
The old men make war. We're sacrificed again.
And we can't go home
Our leave has been revoked
Mismanaged and tired and nothing has been gained
Mismanaged and tired and nothing has been gained
nothing gained
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
We're the dead meat club
Oh no! Congress tried
But veto signed
The dead meat club

Hi MasonR! Love your parody. I love this 90's OS too.
good parody...too bad it had to be written though
Thoughtful and affecting piece of writing here, Mason. 555
Ironic: The real B-52s are considered obsolete by some, yet despite having been used since the Korean War, they're still quite serviceable as warplanes; it's Bush and Cheney who are obsolete. "Any entity that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of man -- that state is obsolete." -- Rod Serling. This parody is submitted, with my approval.
Thanks Poop, alvin & Kristof. I hope I'll have a reason to write something positive about this mess one of these days...
meanwhile Congress and the Prez are back home doing the hokey pokey...
pull our troops right out
keep our troops right in
pull our troops right out
have to wait til you get IN

Thanks Michael & stuart! Hokey pokey indeed.
Yell louder! Surely your Allah is a god! Mayhap he is deep in thought, or sleeping, or hath stopped by the wayside.
To the "silent minority" thanks for all the ones, in this case, I wear them as a badge of honor. Elijah: MY Allah? Wrong! If you're inferring that I'm on the side of Islamic terrorists, G-d forbid, then you've seriously misunderstood this parody.
Ai Chihuaua! Lookit all those 1's! This must've really rubbed some Bushies the wrong way! (Interesting how if someone disagrees with your politics they give you 1's on pacing, LOL!)
