[hometext] => "What? ME wrong?"
[bodytext] => It’s a common tale and we know it well In all our everyday lives Egotists believe their dreams should come true They have such powerful drives They are so full of self-importance And so full of self-belief They think their thoughts are naturally There to bring relief They have no doubt at all No doubt, so easy, just do as I say Simple solutions to complex problems Why? Because I see it that way! And when it all goes horribly wrong Do they stand up and say, “I goofed”? No, they simply say the plan was great It was the EXECUTION that floofed Heaven preserve us from these men And their egos the size of moons For it's others who die and are maimed By the action of these goons They sit happily safe and sound Back in their comfy chair If it goes wrong they simply groan I was RIGHT! Why should I care? Now we see Bush playing this game It doesn’t PAY to be WRONG Just keeps saying “I was RIGHT!” It’s an age-old litany this song It’s the typical political tune We’ve heard it oh, so many times But eventually they do trip and fall And there’s an end to all their rhymes But hear the echo as they go down In a last pathetic fight He’s still shouting as he falls “I’m RIGHT. I’m RIGHT! I’m RIGHT!!!” [comments] => 2 [counter] => 173 [topic] => 41 [informant] => Steeleyes [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => political )
