Veto
Scuffle Satire about warmonger Bush's
failed checkbook diplomacy to bribe and blackmail poor nations to support
his U.N. resolution to attack Iraq - France and Russia have already promised
to veto (Sung to the tune of "Lido Shuffle" by Boz Scaggs)
(instrumental intro)
Vetoed U.N. vote; they say, "Do not attack." Said Dubya, so pissed, "I'll still bomb Iraq!"
Bush assumed thus far, as appointed czar, no one could
stop
His strongman bluff; as U.N. vandal, he's a flop.
They dissed his crown;
Vetos smacked Dubya down - lost control.
He said, "Some more checks... oughta get it. Buy more votes - they're indebted..." Bush has been slowed...
Vetoes... two states said "No-o-o-o...!" Bush flashed his money; wants war to go. Vetoes awaitin', telling him to slow.

(instrumental break)
Vetoes said "Non" and "Nyet," not "Bon,"
so Bush lost his vote.
Wouldn't toe his line, Bush blew it; but Saddam's still
the goat.
Bush is fakin' like he's divine; changin' Iraq's borderline.
Blowin' his smoke.
Sayin' "Some more checks... oughta get it. Buy more votes - they're indebted..." Bush has been slowed...
Vetoes... two states said "No-o-o-o...!" Bush flashed his money; wants war to go. Vetoes awaitin', telling him to slow.
