Original Song Title:

"Johnny B Goode"

Original Performer:

Chuck Berry

  
Parody Song Title:

"Donny's No Good"

Parody Written by:

Phil Alexander

Such a shame that the most eloquent philosopher in the Bush government had to resign...
Way over in the US, Washington DC
Republicans have lost out, democratic'ly
The people there have spoken as we knew they would
Sending Bush a message, that Donny ain't good
He never ever learned to shoot or fight so well
So he made Iraq into a livin'-a hell

So go
Go Donny, go go
Go Donny, go go
Go Donny, go go
Go Donny, go go
Donny's no good

"Sorry, Donny, but I'm givin' you the sack
Voters do not like what you done to Iraq"
Many people hate to see the Sec. of Defence
Showin' to the world his lack of competence
Papers today all run the same headline
Sayin' Donny's no good: resign

Chorus

So Dubya told him next time we will need a plan:
You won't be the leader when we bomb Iran
Watching from the wings, no longer centre stage
Better face it, Donald, you're my daddy's age
Can't you hear the voices all around they're cryin'
Sayin' Donny's no good: resign

Chorus

Nice job, Phil...agree with alvin about it's "singability". Iraq - too bad it took so long for this change, two or three years ago it might have opened the door to some positive changes. I just don't know what's going to happen with that mess now...it might not be salvagable in any reasonable sense...our leader's arrograntly blundered into an awful, dysfunctional situation and have managed to make it even more so...exponentially, it appears. Sad...good parody, though...5's ~ ~ ~

Phil-osopher indeed. Hart Seely, a newpaper reporter, has compiled parts of some of Rummy's speeches, in metrical form, in "Pieces of Intelligence: the existential poetry of Donald H. Rumsfeld." E.g.:

As we know
There are known knowns
There are things we know we know
There are also known unknowns
That is to say
We know there are some things
We do not know But there are also unknown unknowns
The ones we don't know we don't know

Thanks, all :-)
I was trying to get the "known knowns" etc. bit in, but it's almost worthy of a parody to itself... the funny thing about that quote is that it actually makes a lot of sense, and he's been pretty well slated for stating it.
