Now that Iraq is a memory. I wrote this song for you. |

It's not a memory. I mean that in the most sarcastic sense.
Thanks for the memory Of things I will regret Renditions on a jet Our wond’rous week in Abu Ghraib And Fallujah and roulette How unlucky I was
And thanks for the memory Of Hummers and Chalabi Dawn in Tikrit We had a pad in Baghdad But we didn’t stop for WMD How cozy it was
Now since they stood up Alone on a gray morning-after I long for the purple thumbs and laughter And then I see the laugh’s on me
But thanks for the memory Of every IED a thrill Body armor would have spared a kill Geraldo got embedded not His line in the sand and still I miss you so much
Thanks for the memory Of how we used to jog Even in a depleted uranium fog That barbecue with Garner Away from Shock and Awe How rainy it was
Thanks for the memory Of allies I destroyed No-bid contracts we enjoyed Tonight the way things look I need a book by sigmund freud How brainy he was
Gone are those stories of Niger yellow Together we’d go to the UN show But now I begin with the Daily Show And wish that you Hadn't mentioned the aluminum tubes
I know it’s a fallacy That Cheney never cries Fox news never lies We had our hidey hole of roses But forgot that roses die And thank you so much

It's funny that you are from Tiburon. I was in a friend's boat one afternoon, and when we approached China Camp, there was a very large group of people singing Frank Sinatra tunes. It was very weird.

3. Bumping because I thought it was pretty good. If I say so myself. |
