Why Go To War? III
To be sung with Helen Morgan to the Jerome Kern tune
"Why Was I Born?"
(…Why am I living?)

Why go to war?
A Bush vendetta?
Pot shots at Pop?
He thought he'd better.
Cheney, who'd tried once before
   but didn't finish,
Could not diminish
His need for oil.

The reason for
His secret summit?
Big Oil's supplies
Would start to plummet
If two damn fools
Did not try to
Sieze them more oil
Well revenue.
