George Bush's AmeriKKKa the Beautiful
by FSN Friday, Aug. 15, 2003 at 1:35 PM

A parody song

George Bush�s America the Beautiful

Oh beautiful for specious lies
And fake bin Laden tapes
For yellow-cake uranium
and evidence that�s baked.
America, America
There�s oil don�t you see?
Though it�s a sham,
I�ll bomb Saddam
So there�ll be more for me!

Oh beautiful for corporate crime
For Enron, Brown, and Root
For Gates and Lay and Uncle Dick
God bless the Carlyle Group!
America, America
Your pensions have been spent
On drugs and clothes
For CEOs
You�ll never see a cent.

Oh beautiful for PATRIOT Act
That makes dissenters fear
If they protest
Their false arrest
We�ll lock them up for years.
America, America
With Bush you must agree
You�d best suck up
Or get locked up
For all eternity.

Oh beautiful for greenhouse gas
And glowing toxic waste
For Yucca Mountain �s majesty
And air that you can taste.
America, America
Who needs clean air or trees?
They�ll be no snow
In Idaho
But check out Boise Beach!

Oh beautiful for deficit
It�s bigger by the day
For joblessness and homelessness
And debts we cannot pay.
America, America
You�ll need that SUV
When you�ve no bed
To rest your head
Fold down that big, back seat!

Oh beautiful for mushroom cloud
Spreading o�er the plain
But I�ll be safe beneath the ground
While you�re sucking black rain.
America, America
I cannot tell a lie
Just buy duct tape
And plastic drapes
And kiss your ass good-bye!
