[00:00.000] 作曲 : Tom Paxton
[00:04.420] I got a letter from old George W.
[00:06.174] It said "Son, I hate to trouble ya,
[00:08.169] but this war of mine is goin bad.
[00:12.170] It's time for me to role those dice,
[00:14.417] I know you've already been there twice,
[00:16.418] but I am sending you back to Baghdad."
[00:20.673] George W told the nation
[00:22.673] "This is not an escalation,
[00:24.676] this is just a surge toward victory.
[00:28.929] Just to win my little war,
[00:30.915] I'm sending 20, 000 more,
[00:32.922] to help me save Iraq from Iraquis."
[00:38.914] And so I made it to Iraq,
[00:41.164] in time for one more sneak attack,
[00:43.418] and to my old battallion I was sent.
[00:47.421] We'd drive around in our Humvees,
[00:49.676] listening to the Black Eyed Peas,
[00:51.673] and speaking fondly of our president.
[00:55.935] George W told the nation
[00:57.925] "This is not an escalation,
[00:59.919] this is just a surge toward victory.
[01:04.164] Just to win my little war,
[01:06.172] I'm sending 20, 000 more,
[01:08.188] to help me save Iraq from Iraquis."
[01:14.427] Celebrities all come to see us,
[01:16.677] grateful they don't have to be us.
[01:18.675] Politicians play the best faced card.
[01:22.921] Where is Bubba?
[01:24.167] Where's our Leader?
[01:25.177] Where's our favorite lip reader?
[01:27.420] Awol from the Texas National Guard.
[01:31.667] George W told the nation
[01:33.665] "This is not an escalation,
[01:35.661] this is just a surge toward victory.
[01:39.668] Just to win my little war,
[01:41.664] I'm sending 20, 000 more,
[01:43.920] to help me save Iraq from Iraquis."
[01:50.174] If you're hunkered in Fallujah,
[01:52.416] wondering who it was who screwed ya,
[01:54.421] wondering what became of shock and awe.
[01:58.419] You are feelin' semi-certain,
[02:00.670] it has to do with Haliburton,
[02:02.675] Dick Chainey's why you drew that fatal straw.
[02:06.920] But, George W told the nation
[02:08.921] "This is not an escalation,
[02:11.175] this is just a surge toward victory.
[02:15.416] Just to win my little war,
[02:17.167] I'm sending 20, 000 more,
[02:19.421] to help me save Iraq from Iraquis."
