The Lyrics

For the benefit of Ray Nagin,
now the rescue can begin what a scene
the FEMA people will be there,
red cross people in the air, they'll all clean
over levees, dykes, and roofs the waters
rushed right through that old town, like a fire
in this way, Mr Ray, you'll blame all the world!!
the celebrated Mr. Ray,
grabs the microphone to say that Bush is bad,
the governor, for all she's done,
blames the "bad" republicans it's all so sad...
Mr Ray is great, he says his fate is worse because he's black
and not number one...
and of course ,back of a horse, he was the one!!!
the Prez comes by to survey here
how the looting crime and fear, made it's way
and "w" will demonstrate,
his leadership and undertake, make things ok
passing bills for cash with legislation,
recovery now is guaranteed for all,
and the left, always bereft, can kiss my ring

Ain't it funny that in the weeks before Katrina hit, Nagin himself stated it would be every man for himself if a hurricane hit...that the city could not evacuate everyone....and then blames everyone but himself when his citizens are shooting at rescue workers. This is a great parody Mr Higgins.

I totally disagree, but some great lines here, especially the horse part (and which specific horse part).

"Kiss my ring!" Ho ho ho! That could be taken sooo many different ways.

I still think we could recoup some losses by turning New Orleans into New Venice, though.
