He’s lost support and stirred up people’s fears
With plans to fiddle with their golden years.
Iraq’s a mess, and, everyone agrees,
Schiavo exploitation failed to please
The folks who thought our way of life forebore us
From meddling in other people’s tsoris.
With gas too dear to start a truck up,
His only answer is some Saudi suck-up.
DeLay, it’s clear, is wallowing in graft,
And Bolton seems at least a little daft.
(Forgiveness, Khrushchev, surely is your due
If our guy starts to rant and pound his shoe.)
So Bush’s numbers tumble toward the floor,
Reminding us of what we’ve seen before.
But why is that? Why does this path seem trodden?
Remember what Bush was before bin Laden.
