The Lyrics
Bush Advisor Karen Hughes abruptly leaves the White House for Texas
(instrumental intro)
No, Bush can't face future meetings,
'Cause his ace, Karen Hughes, was leaving.
Without Karen's spin, his flaws will be exposed.
He'll try to smile and fake he's wise, but it looks posed.
It looks posed...
Bush has sold out our tomorrow.
Wasted trillions we can't borrow.
But he doesn't care; what Big Oil says must go.
Dubya doesn't dare reveal what we all know...
What we all know...
(Chorus)
He's a stiff... while speaking without Hughes.
He's a stiff... he can't lift any more.
A stiff... while speaking without Hughes.
He's a stiff... he can't lift any more.
No, Bush can't face future meetings
'Cause his ace, Karen Hughes, was leaving.
Without Karen's spin, his flaws might be exposed.
He'll try to smile and fake he's wise, but it looks posed.
It looks posed...
He's a stiff... while speaking without Hughes.
He's a stiff... he can't lift any more.
A stiff... while speaking without Hughes.
He's a stiff... he can't lift any more.
(repeat chorus and fade)
No, Bush can't face future meetings,
'Cause his ace, Karen Hughes, was leaving.
Without Karen's spin, his flaws will be exposed.
He'll try to smile and fake he's wise, but it looks posed.

Bush has sold out our tomorrow.
Wasted trillions we can't borrow.
But he doesn't care; what Big Oil says must go.
Dubya doesn't dare reveal what we all know...
What we all know...
(Chorus)
He's a stiff... while speaking without Hughes.
He's a stiff... he can't lift any more.
A stiff... while speaking without Hughes.
He's a stiff... he can't lift any more.
No, Bush can't face future meetings
'Cause his ace, Karen Hughes, was leaving.
Without Karen's spin, his flaws might be exposed.
He'll try to smile and fake he's wise, but it looks posed.
It looks posed...
He's a stiff... while speaking without Hughes.
He's a stiff... he can't lift any more.
A stiff... while speaking without Hughes.
He's a stiff... he can't lift any more.
(repeat chorus and fade)
