Verse When you're part of a party of fools Refusing to play by the rules, You can't let folks know you're upset By Bush antics the world ridicules. It's important as things fall apart, With boo-boos ev'ry day, To project an air of complacency, And sound blasé. Chorus Have you heard how Orrin Hatch Was badly burned by a safety match? Wow, was he evah! What a grand old party this is. Have you heard how Tom DeLay Was eulogized when he drank bugspray? Wow, was he evah! What a grand old party this is. Another farce So watch your arse. Although we've gaffed We're great at graft What a grand old party this is. Have you heard how Mike Chertoff Waterlogs with each goof-off? Wow, does he evah! What a grand old party this is. Have you heard how Cheney, Dick, Steals awards for farcical shtick? Wow, does he evah! What a grand old party this is. A mighty wind And no one sinned. A little stealth Adds to our wealth. What a grand old party this is. Have you heard how Doctor Frist Only is gay when his arm is twist? Wow, is he evah! What a grand old party this is. Have you heard how Gonzales, Al, Was burned at the stake by a childhood pal? Wow, was he evah! What a grand old party this is. We can't have lost. Look what it cost! Some say we suck. It's just bad luck. What a grand old party this is. Have you heard how Condi Rice Finds Fallopian tubes an enrichment device? Wow, does she evah! What a grand old party this is. Have you heard how Stevens, Ted, Drove off a bridge on an Eskimo sled? Wow, did he evah! What a grand old party this is. A minor lapse. We need our naps. But no slam dunk Can't mean we flunk. What a grand old party this is. Have you heard how Rummy, Don, Takes Viag'ra to be just like Genghis Khan? Wow, does he evah! What a grand old party this is.
