Sic Semper Tyrannis
Saddam Hussein, shortly after capture 12/13/2003
In the Bad Old Days
Ladies and Gentlemen...
Ladies and Gentlemen
We got him!!!!
And the world erupted with joy
At the same time, some mother's boy
was enduring the sand, and a lonely night
anxiety-ridden; waiting to fight
It's not over. Hasn't been over -
never will be over for them.
And while I'm thrilled that we got "him"
his followers are out there,
plotting, planning, making bombs
angry, violent, and very aware
that our sons and daughters are
still over there.
Before it's all over
Before it's all done
There'll be one final casualty,
someone's daughter or son.

Saddam: Center Stage
Saddam…Saddam
...formerly Iraq’s great
Where have you been
...Hiding in a hole
...making us wait
while freedom’s music did ring
and the whole world was waiting
just to hear you sing
...Didn’t you hear our music
Weren’t you home…were you sick
...You missed your cue
...so we brought the show to you
We are all impatiently waiting
to hear your sweet voice
You will be the critic’s choice
Now sing for this crowd...sing real loud..
Come on Saddam…you don’t have to be shy
...but remember we don’t want no lullaby

Really, Saddam
Saddam, it's sad, dam sad,
the way you look is pretty bad -
Imagine, a famous leader like you
hiding in a spider hole, out of view.
Everyone's a thief in your beady eyes.
Now, Saddam, even you must realize
that not everyone's a thief, and even so,
torture and hangings aren't the way to go.
Would you judge yourself, as you did them?
Do you still see yourself in the same old light
Or is the light beginning to grow dim?
Old Saddam, you're a coward; you did not fight.
You said I want to "negotiate."
Negotiate what, you reprobate?
You're a strange and cruel man
and I can't pretend to comprehend
how you came to be this way.
But you will be treated better in the end
than the ones you killed, tortured and maimed
I think a deep hole was the right place for you
I mean, really, Saddam, aren't you ashamed?
I cannot even pray for you
and I'm sure you wouldn't want it
You committed unspeakable acts on men
you waved your rifle; your power was flaunted.
Now, if only we can find
Osama Bin Laden - who's next in line
The two of you could share a cell
and live side by side in a fiery Hell.
