A Pocketful of Worms *
Sung to the tune
"I've Got A Pocketful Of Dreams"

Look who's in the catbird seat.
Got a 'mandate', got conceit,
But he's got a pocketful of worms.

Lucky, lucky him
Gets to deal with Little Kim
Adding to his pocketful of worms.

Blessed by nine-eleven
He could do no wrong.
Thought he'd gone to heaven.
Before that? Proved he don't belong.

Watch his voter ratings drop.
He's a lousy border cop
For he's got a pocketful of worms.

Illegal immigrants: all his.
Tries to satisfy big biz
Adding to his pocketful of worms.

Scalia's slimy, squiggly.
DeLay's proving piggly.
Privatizing's doubtful.
Bolton's looking loutful.

Lucky, lucky we,
For we've got another three
Years of his pocketful of worms.
