Send George Bush a Pretzel
Copyright 2002 by Darryl Cherney, Antonia Lamb and Kay Rudin
George was in the White House
Watching his TV
Chewing on a pretzel
And drinking his ice tea
When suddenly he choked and
Passed out upon the ground
There was a bruise upon his cheek
And scratches all around
Chorus:
So send George Bush a pretzel
Send one every day
Send it with best wishes
And send him on his way
Then the secret service came
They took the pretzel in
They kept the pretzel up all night
Interrogated him
The pretzel said I'm innocent
My story you must hear
It wasn't an ice tea he drank
It was an ice-cold beer
Repeat Chorus
The pretzel got a lawyer
>From the ACLU
The media just ate it up
The rumors wildly flew (it's true)
The president responded
In a twisty wisty way
The pretzel is a terrorist
Send him to Guantanamo Bay
Repeat Chorus
Some say that the pretzel
Was sent here from Iraq
Some say North Korea
They know it for a fact
But the pretzel and the president
Are brothers yes they are
No matter what their differences
They both start with PR
Repeat Chorus
Now George said send one dollar
So Afganie kids can eat
But the only thing he sent them
Was a cluster bombing treat
But if you want to feed them
In their starving neighborhood
Send George Bush a pretzel
And do those kids some good
Repeat Chorus

Ever since hearing about the pretzel incident, I keep envisioning seas of banners and posters crying out, "Get that man a pretzel!" I see people joyously dancing, see whole families clapping and rejoicing. And I suppose my wishing him a pretzel will put me onto the FBI's pretzel hit list!
