Over the Tigris and Through the Dunes

(tune of “Over the River and Through the Woods”)

 

 

Over the Tigris and through the dunes

It’s into Iraq we go!

The tanks lead the way,

We’ll carry the day

And be home for lunch, you know!

Over the Tigris and through the dunes

Oh how our weapons glow!

We’ll pound Saddam

Into the sand

And be home next week, you know!

 

Over the Tigris and through the dunes

And now it’s springtime here.

I’m doing fine,

It’s a hundred and nine

And there’s sand fleas in my ears.

Over the Tigris and through the dunes

To bring peace and democracy,

With bombs and guns

And uranium

But I’ll surely come home this year!

 

Over the Tigris and through the dunes

Looking for WMDs.

There aren’t any here

We’ve been looking for years

And they’ve cancelled all my leave.

Over the Tigris and through the dunes

Oh how this war does blow!

George Bush, he lied

And thousands died.

This quagmire’s got to go!
