The Ballad of Bushie (from "The Ballad of Irving")

[Frazzled Educator]

He was short and dumb and came out of the west
With a fifth of Jack Daniels in his silver spoon vest.
He was mean and psycho right clear through
Which was kind of weird, cause he was a neanderthal too

They called him Bushie
Dumb Bushie
Big Dumb Bushie
Big Dumb Drunk Bushie
The #1 dumbest leader in the world

He came from the old Western Texas spread
With shit for brains and his father's bread
He always worked and so he toiled
But in oil rich Texas, he never found oil.

Bushie.
Big Dumb Bushie
Spoiled brat Bushie
The #1 dumbest leader in the world.

The rest of world knew he was a boob
Especially when he sat and watched the tube.
He was so dumb he can't watch TV and eat.
He even choked himself with a pretzel of wheat

Bushie
Big Dumb Bushie
Retarded Chipmunk Bushie
The #1 dumbest leader in the World.

One day, bad OBL stumbled into town
His goal was to knock the Twin Towers down.
He could have led and helped us fast
But he sat real scared in a Kindergarten class.

Bushie
Big Dumb Bushie
Uber coward Bushie
The #1 dumbest leader in the World.

He looked at the military as one of his toys
He didn't care if they died, they weren't his boys.
New Orleans drowned and the Middle East's crap
But where is Bushie? Oh, taking a nap!

Bushie
Big Dumb Bushie
Lazy Dumbass Bushie
The #1 dumbest leader in the World.

So finally, the world has gone all to hell.
And he still croons that all is well.
In November '06, this clown will get what's best.
Then we'll impeach the prick and clean up this mess!

Bushie.
Big, Dumb Bushie.
Big lame duck Bushie.
Big lame duck, dust bin of history Bushie.
The #1 dumbest leader in the World.
Really.

1. No apologies necessary. And Welcome to DU!

I heard this with the voice that performed "Irving", and yours is priceless!

Now, *one* of us has to provide a link to an audio so folks know what we're hearing... :)

2. LOVED IT!!!

Heard the original Ballad of Irving and its sequel The Ballad of Seymour (Son of Irving) on Dr. Demento.
You are right up there with The Nixorcist and I Ran From Iran.
:applause:

Only one thing...this verse:

He came from the old Western Texas spread
With shit for brains and his father's bread
He always worked and so he toiled
But in oil rich Texas, he never found oil.

IIRC, Bush has never actually WORKED a day in his life.
Exerted himself physically, yes; but worked? No way.
Otherwise, you are right on!
