The Lyrics
Events leading up to the Iraq war...and outcome
Saddam Smart, US Smarter
(Parody: Man Smart, Women Smarter - Harry Belafonte )
by Steve Gail
Verse 1:
Of the UN security council
who do you think is smarter?
some say France, but I say no
they just stop most anything with their Veto.
Not me, its the UN they say, that keeps letting Saddam just lead them astray, but I say, that the Iraq of today, Hiding massive weapons everyway.
Bridge
That right, the US is smarter
we'll fight the war with no partner.
That's right the US is smarter.
That's right.
That's right.
Verse 2:
Send inspectors to look around,
No massive weapons can ne're they find.
The inspectors keep saying ther're not even warm.
So then where are the weapons left from dessert storm.
Not me, but its the German and French, that keep using vetos that even those two can't explain, or how lame, that this leader called Huseein is smarter then the French are anyday.
Bridge
But still the US is smarter.
The war will come when we start(her)
That's right the US is smarter
That's Right! That's Right!
Verse 3:
US army is kicking ass.
War be over and pretty fast.
Saddam get pissed, try to cause us harm.
US get pissed, and drop atomic bomb.
Not me, its the UN they say, That keeps letting Saddam and that damn Iraq get away, but not after today.
We're gonna kick his ass in everyway.
Bridge
That's right the US is smarter.
We give you chances to barter.
That's right the US is smarter
That's Right!
That's Right!
( repeat, fade and out )

How come this song got all 1's from someone. How can it be reated so well then get one's looks like sabotage. I have seen this on several other songs as well. Please explain Thanks
Well O'Hooligan, it looks like we arrived just a little too late to nab the "1s Guy". He's claimed another innocent parody writer. As the Who once said, "You ain't the first, and you ain't the last". Welcome to the neighborhood, Noddy.
I wonder if this writer is going to come up with a Sequel or another Belafonte Tune after the election and if we ever get the hell out of IRAQ - Great verse, internal rhyme very very good....WHO gave him the one..probably Saddam - (LOL) Excelelnt parody
The internal rhymes were fantastic....very very clever...especially the Not me, but its the German and French, that keep using vetos that even those two can't explain, or how lame, that this leader called Huseein is smarter then the French are anyday. I can;t wait for writer's sequel to come out after the war or election HAHAHA
To parody police: I'll bet that the 1s voter was a decade cop or someone noticing that it should have been placed in misc (since TOS came out before 1960). People like that have nothing better to do. Not me, though; i voted 5s on it.
