The Lyrics

Embattled Attorney General Alberto ("Gonzo") Gonzalez's was pummeled by Republican and Democratic Senators who sharply questioned his role in the political firing of 8 U.S. Attorneys; he answered "I don't recall" to nearly 100 questions
(instrumental intro)

Gonzo grilled in the Senate, got panned
For his evasive answers, in the end, could get canned.
Before Congress, Gonzo's grilled.

Gonzo's grilled; who got the knife?
Eight U.S. Attorneys; he cause this strife.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

CHORUS:
Gonzo's grilled, Gonzo's grilled.
Jobs for U.S. Attorneys, Bushies filled
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

Why was he appointed? Was he the best?
No, Gonzalez was loyal; passed Bush's test.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

Prosecutors scandal, all hell's broke loose.
Gonzo's grilled, Senate said "Vamoose!"
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

Gonzo's grilled, Gonzo's grilled.
Jobs for U.S. Attorneys, Bushies filled
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

Now it's clear as crystal, Al has no charm.
Al Gonzalez is clueless; his party's alarmed.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

So, Gonzalez said sorry, but will not take blame
Fired U.S. Attorneys would not play his game.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

Gonzo's grilled, Gonzo's grilled.
Jobs for U.S. Attorneys, Bushies filled.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

Gonzo's grilled on Capitol Hill
For inept performance, career he will kill.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

Gonzo's grilled; he looked so bad
The worst round of questioning he ever had
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

Gonzo's grilled, Gonzo's grilled.
Jobs for U.S. Attorneys, Bushies filled.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.

Gonzo's grilled, Gonzo's grilled.
Jobs for U.S. Attorneys, Bushies filled.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
