(A Chorus From the Bush Administration Sings Another Republican Sea Chantey)
We weren't impressed with FEMA when we came--
Too set on fitting jobs to skills precisely.
It's loyalty we needed at the top.
We thought a horse show judge would do quite nicely.
'Cause government's the problem, lads,
Americans would all do well to shun it.
Yes, government's the problem, lads.
At least it is when we're the ones who run it.
