SADDAM SHAME
(from the album "This Machine: The Best of Roy Zimmerman")
words and music
copyright © 1991, 2006 by

Thank God we finally had us a war
It's what Neocons have been hankering for
Rivers of gore we can wave the flag o'er

Flaunting our Superpower status
Wringing our hands saying, “Why do they hate us?”

And thank God, we’re finally nabbed you, Saddam
You horrible threat to our dear Uncle Sam
After you spent nine months eating goat on the lam

While we liberated your country
Slashing and burning and saving just one tree...
The Minis-tree of Oil

    Saddam Shame, Saddam Shame
    We all had to learn your damn name
    Only three questions remain:
    Who's sane? Who's sane? Who's sane?

Iraq is the front in the War Against Terror
Might be because we invited ‘em there, or
Perhaps there’s some terrible clerical error

Maybe a faulty equation
Like “911 equals US invasion”

We are not nation builders, we know that for certain
We’re building the sovereign state of Halliburton
Ignoring the guy there behind the big curtain

Driving around feelin’ groovy
A star spangled banner on every SUV

    Saddam Shame, Saddam Shame
    We all had to learn your damn name
    Only three questions remain:
    Who's sane? Who's sane? Who's sane?

We shocked ‘em and awed ‘em and went to the showers
Mission Accomplished! Hey, where’s all the flowers?
The tyrant is vanquished and Bagdad is ours...
I mean, theirs … the incoming Iraqi government…
Or as they say, the Iraqi government - Incoming!

    Saddam shame, Saddam shame
    We all had to learn your damn name
    Only three questions remain:
    Who's sane? Who's sane? Who’s sane?

    Yes, only three questions remain:
    Who's sane? Who's sane? Who knows?
