Knockin' Around The Budget Bill

Knockin' Around The Man Named Bill
(Sung to the tune of "Rockin' Around the Christmas Tree" by Brenda Lee)

Knockin' around the budget bill
Won't the Grand Old Party stop?
Missles are built that we don't need
The environment gets the slop

Knockin' around the budget bill
Is a mean-spirited thing
Letting the social programs die
While the funds are narrowing

Gingrich hates the sentimental liberals, but he fears
He will lose through his own folly
He wrecked the fall in one big volley

Knockin' around the budget bill
Near the federal holiday
If they get furloughed, this time they may not
Get retroactive pay

(instrumental break)

Gingrich hates the sentimental liberals, but he fears
He will lose through his own folly
He wrecked the fall in one big volley

Knockin' around the budget bill
Near the federal holiday
If they get furloughed, this time they may not
Get re-tro-act-ive pa-a-ay!
