The Senate's DeLay *
Sung to the tune "Doin' What Comes Natur'lly"

Here's a twist, it isn't Frist who's running Bush's Senate –
To ensure their bonhomie, they've always delayed natur'lly.
Can't pass muster? Filibuster – that has been their tenet
But Tom begs to disagree: "Shut them up immediately."

You don't have to know what is wrong or right
To try to get a quorum in the middle of the night.
You don't have to be from a prestigious school
To know that you you can violate an ethics rule.
That comes natur'lly, and to him too easily.

This Congressman from Texas has put most pols to shame.
That law he passed protects us? If Tom DeLay's your name.
Will Senators who know the law put up with his malarkey,
Or keep his grace in lower case, and do what comes natur'lly.
