In Saddam’s World

In Saddam’s World

In Saddam’s world there’s bombs, I know
My Poppy sold them years ago
To bloody killers, on the sly
When he was chief of every spy
Who turned against the world we know

We are the Rich. Short days ago
We traded stocks, we tooted blow
Screwed and were screwed, and told a lie
In Poppy’s world

So fight our war, ‘cause I won’t go
Nor all the pampered friends I know
But guard the oil, as it runs dry
Our promise to you was a lie
When you need help, we’ll tell you “no”
In Dubya’s world.

Apologies to John McCrae
I mean actual, real apologies.
To all the veterans
who fought and who died,
who returned and were forgotten.

1. Let's give this another try.

I know it's parody and doggerel but I spent an hour on it, dammit!
