(The "Matchmaker" knockoff song in the new Iraq musical Gunslinger on the Roof)
Blackwater, Blackwater,
You can attack.
Spray them away.
Whack whom you'd whack.
Forget all the people whose lights you've put out,
'Cause you've got Republican clout.
So shoot them,
Stonewall the hassle.
Remember
That it's all authorized.
Don't worry: Government brass'll
Explain that our killing's been privatized.
