Wave A White Flag, Joe
Being sung by Connecticut voters to the hymn
"Battle Hymn of the Republic"
(Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord)

For Lieberman the glory of the office is that he
Gets a chance to hob nob with the Bush nobility,
Ignoring what's important to the likes of you and me –
So why keep him on?
Glory, glory, hunky-dory.
Sing a Joey bed-time story.
Disregard more con amoré.
Make sure Joe is gone.

Joe's slow to realize just how badly Bush and he
Misjudged how most Iraqis feel about democracy
Having seen how little he and Bushie disagree –
Whose side is Joe on?
Glory, glory, hunky-dory.
Sing a Joey bed-time story.
Disregard more con amoré.
Make sure Joe is gone.

Slow Joe is in the middle, which means apparently
He has no views at all, so thank God he's not VP,
Just one heart beat away from 'Whatever-did-we-see?'
Why'd we keep Joe on?
Glory, glory, hunky-dory.
Sing a Joey bed-time story.
Disregard more con amoré.
Make sure Joe is gone.

Electing Joe would add a stench to DC's potpourri,
A monkey wrench who'd warm the bench, for Joe's nonentity
Would foil attempts to unentrench the Bushie GOP –
Joe be gone, be gone.
Glory, glory, hunky-dory.
Sing a Joey bed-time story.
Disregard more con amoré.
Make sure Joe is gone.
