The Lyrics
I should have written this weeks ago. The flavor of the month has melted. Not that this was an endorsement anyway.
Last night i watched TV after dark.
They had a guest, General Wesley Clark.
They had some fun on MSNBC.
They played some "Hardball."
He got some questions from that Chris Matthews.
He wanted to hear all the General's views.
And when they stopped, he looked real good to me.
His polls are flying up! Like a rocket ship!
Down! Like a rollercoaster!
Fast! Like a loop-de-loop on the Democratic merry-go-round!
He is a guy Howard Dean can't stand.
John Kerry told him, "Talk to the hand!"
And Dick Gephardt, the General gave him a slug
in the populist gut!
You'll never know how great the race can feel
when Bush sees a man whose military record's real.
And I found my choice: He's my pal Wesley Clark!
(instrumental bridge)
He is a guy Howard Dean can't stand.
John Kerry told him, "Talk to the hand!"
And Dick Gephardt, the General gave him a slug
in the populist gut!
Yeah, you'll never know how great the race can feel
when Bush sees a man whose military record's real.
And I found my choice:
He's my pal Wesley Clark!
He's my pal Wesley Clark!
He's my pal Wesley Clark!
(repeat 'til fade)

And now Clark's fade is well underway. Maybe Kerry will appoint him Secretary of Defense. After all, Clark shouldn't have trouble getting his fellow Republicans to confirm him in the Senate.
