Bush

Our soldiers are overseas

and we’re told what for,

is that it benefits us

to be in this here war.

It’s kind of sureal

being against the ropes,

in honor of our raised flag

they’ve falsly raised our hopes.

So there we go and here we are

fighting on foriegn soil,

and after all the casualities

we’ve raised the price of oil!

Support all of our servicemen

when shove comes down to push,

but who we can no longer support

is our President, George Bush.
