Can't go anyplace Now I'm losing face. People yell and swear, "Why are you still there?" Who'd have guessed why we've not left yet ? Chalabi needs us around. He's agreed to meet Condi tout de suite. He and Rummy speak By cellphone once a week. And though we've messed up we've not left yet. Chalabi needs us around. We've mended our relations And fostered indications We're planning an indeterminate stay. But when his pumping stations Can guarantee our rations Of oil, why go away? Americans take heart. Here's the clever part. With him on our side Chavez is nullified. At his request we haven't left yet. Chalabi needs us around.
