The Lyrics

(instrumental intro)

Almost drifted off to slumber; boring football game broadcast.
Dubya grabbed a piece of pretzel, and he tried to eat too fast.
Well, he didn't even know how his mug of beer fell out of his hand.
By then, he wasn't conscious - off in la-la land.

(Chorus:)
He was reelin' in the beers.
Soakin' away the time.
Enron scandal is what he fears.
Folks might blame him for the crime.
He was reelin' in the beers.
Soakin' away the time.
Enron scandal is what he fears.
Folks might blame him for the crime.

Well it doesn't take a genius to know Bush isn't keen.
More bruises on his face were covered up and left unseen.
He doesn't have much knowledge; he can't understand.
As leader, he is useless - he can't run this land.

He was reelin' in the beers.
Soakin' away the time.
Enron scandal is what he fears.
Folks might blame him for the crime.
He was reelin' in the beers.
Soakin' away the time.
Enron scandal is what he fears.
Folks might blame him for the crime.

(instrumental break)

Bush spent a lot of money, and he spent a lot of time.
It didn't do him any good, to train his puny mind.
After all the things he's said, so dumb, does he have any plan?
As leader, he is useless - he can't run this land.

He was reelin' in the beers.
Soakin' away the time.
Enron scandal is what he fears.
Folks might blame him for the crime.
He was reelin' in the beers.
Soakin' away the time.
Enron scandal is what he fears.
Folks might blame him for the crime.

(repeat chorus and fade)
