Old Tune - New Words

We didn’t start the meltdown

We Didn’t Start the Meltdown


Lyrics by ME - You choose the music

(Apologies to Billy Joel for use of meter)


We didn’t start the meltdown

So just please don’t blame me

It was Bush and Cheney


We didn’t start the meltdown

Blame that squat sick possum

Known as W’s Turd Blossom


W won’t take advice

Doesn’t stop and then think twice

Doesn’t listen to his aides

Even though he had low grades

Won’t believe in any facts

Of Bin Laden’s planned attacks

Feels the fear rise in his throat

While he finishes, “My Pet Goat”


We didn’t start the meltdown

So just please don’t blame me

It was Bush and Cheney


We didn’t start the meltdown

But the gun was loaded

Kerry got “Swift Boated”


Katherine Harris’ ugly face

True official of disgrace

Hanging chads caused a stir

President then picked by her

Start the ball toward personal gain

Right wing sings same refrain

Plan your targets to get oil

Even when on foreign soil


We didn’t start the meltdown

It’s what we expected

When Barack was elected


We didn’t start the meltdown

But with determination

We can save the nation


9-11 sneak attacks

Showed what W really lacks

Cheney took complete control

Relishing war monger role

Mapping out retaliation

Halliburton salivation

Calling up the National Guard

Sending youth to death not hard


We didn’t start the meltdown

So just please don’t blame me

It was Bush and Cheney


We didn’t start the meltdown

But we lived right through it

Freedom’s light is still lit


Trample on the Constitution

Always find a fake solution

Wire taps

Truth gaps

Never mind congressional saps

Calling things acts of sedition

Use of tactics called rendition

Water boarding just for fun

Boy you had a real sick run

AIGs killing me

When will we all be debt free?

Unemployed and out of luck

Former boss was such a schmuck


We didn’t start the meltdown

So just please don’t blame me

It was Bush and Cheney


We didn’t start the meltdown

But with determination

We can save the nation


Health Insurance really blows

Cobra costs are through the nose

Congress sits back on their butts

I sit home just going nuts!

Rush Limbaugh and friend Glenn Beck

All the other Fox News dreck

Cantor Vitter Foley Hatch

What a stinking sorry batch

Condoleeza Chavez Myers

Rumsfeld Cheney all were liars


Show these losers to the door

I can’t take it anymore!


We didn’t start the meltdown

But with determination

We can save the nation


We must end the meltdown

And tell the Party of No

There ideas must all go.
