GONE WITH MY WIND
Wake up! Get down here quick! / The president’s had too much to drink / His days of power are about gone / He’s been talking to paintings in the hall / He says, “I’m finished, so what the hell? / My life is ruined, what matters now? / I’ve always itched for that last great thrill / If I die all of you should too” / Chorus: Gone with my wind / Out with a bang / I’m gonna end it all right now / Gone with my wind / Out with a bang / You’re coming with me, oh wow / My bombs will rain down on D.C. / We’ll nuke our enemies while they’re asleep / We’ll be safe in the ground below / And laugh and drink ‘til the cows come home / So c’mon, John, whadya say? / It’s been dancing in my head for years / What’ll happen if I push this button? / Let’s start World War III for fun / (Chorus) / Mr. President, just sit down / We should talk a little while, I’ll pour another round / What about your memoirs’ TV rights? / Sit tight-and watch the fire / Let go of me. Do you think I’m mad? / To tell the truth, sir, I’d rather not say / Just keep your paws inside your pockets / And planet earth will be OK. / But you reached for the button anyhow / I had no choice but to knock you out / That’s just last night’s bump on your head / On to the next crisis, it’s another day / (Chorus)
