Attrition, He Says
Being sung by Bushie to Frank Loesser's
"Murder, He Says"
(He says, "Murder," he says, ev'ry time we kiss…)

He says, "Attrition," he says.
"That's how we plan to win it,"
He says, "Attrition," he says.
"So Snow won't have to spin it,"
He says, "Attrition," he says.
"No longer do we got to
Pull troops out like we ought to."

He says, "Attrition," he says.
"Dictates what we ought not to."
He says, "Attrition," he says.
"When we ain't got a lot to."
He says, "Attrition," he says,
"Means no Shia re-emergin'
Unlike with Cheney's surgin'."

He says, "Attrition," he says.
"Of course that might mean fewer coming back,"
He says, "Attrition," he says.
"But that should placate those left in Iraq."
He says, "Attrition," he says,
"Would help reduce troop levels like we ought to,
Plus we'd still outnumber Shia,
Back hea',
Like we got to."
