The Lyrics
Satire about the now-infamous Downing Street Memo from Britain, transcribed from a secret British prime minister meeting in July 2002, proving to the world that Bush had been intent on making war on Iraq, while he and Tony Blair cooked intelligence reports and spread fear-mongering lies to justify their illegal war.
(instrumental intro)
Iraq was attacked by the Shrub and his pack
Through cooked intelligence and lying.
We know the neocons had lied,
'Cause the Downing Street memos said so.
Played on fear; heard Bush the Czar braying,
"We will teach Saddam to bow."
War hawks cheered the carnage and slaying,
The neocons are roasted by reports they disavow.
His war's gone wrong; polls have slipped;
Bush is failing, for war boner.
Iraq had no nuke "terra" we could see... (War shelling sprees)
Bush justified his lyin' with his oil-grabbing ploy.
Iraq was attacked, 9-1-1 his decoy.
Iraq was attacked by the Shrub and his pack
Through cooked intelligence and lying...
Using voodoo from his cuckoos; they're the neocons,
Still spinning lies.
(instrumental break)
Iraq was attacked by the Shrub and his pack
Through cooked intelligence and lying.
We know the neocons had lied,
Downing Street memos have said that's so.
Played on fear; heard Bush the Czar braying,
"We will teach Saddam to bow."
War hawks cheered the carnage and slaying,
The neocons are roasted by reports they disavow.
Things have gone wrong; polls have slipped;
Bush is failin' for his war boner.
Iraq had no nuke "terra" Bush could see.
Bush justified his lyin' with his oil-grabbing ploy
Iraq was attacked, 9-1-1 his decoy.
Iraq was attacked by George Bush and his pack
Through cooked intelligence and lying...
Using voodoo from his cuckoos; they're the neocons,
Still spinning lies.
Using voodoo from his cuckoos; they're the neocons,
Still spinning lies.
Iraq was attacked by the Shrub and his pack
Through cooked intelligence and lying.
We know the neocons had lied,
'Cause the Downing Street memos said so.
Played on fear; heard Bush the Czar braying,
"We will teach Saddam to bow."
War hawks cheered the carnage and slaying,
The neocons are roasted by reports they disavow.
His war's gone wrong; polls have slipped;
