Bail, Baby, Bail!
A lecherous Old Mac covers his ass

My Friends:
"We must, of course, bail out the Swiss
    and any corporation
Headquartered for tax purposes
    in someone else's nation."

"But is it patriotic to
    make voters foot the bill
For greedy CEOs with
    foreign fingers in the till?"

These proposals like my others,
    I admit, have just one aim
Each makes me seem a hero
    when I make the counterclaim.

Why not let Bushie's good old boys
    spend billions on morale?
"Heck-of-a-Job-Henry"
    will be ev'rybody's pal.

He'll spend your cash on Wall Street's trash,
    then turn around and hire
The same misfits to manage it
    who started this damn fire.

You think I'll solve this crisis?
    You think I've got a clue?
I only know what's best for me.
    Not what's good for you.

Am I an opportunist?
    Does it matter who gets what
As long as I'm supportive
    and watching Sarah's butt?
