Wartime President Song

My old man, he had oil... so I'd never have to toil !
With a knick-knack, bomb Iraq... all your money's spent.
I'm a wartime president!

My old man, made a call... so I didn't go to 'nam at all!
With a knick-knack, bomb Iraq all your money's spent...
I'm a wartime president!

Did my time in the Guard... went AWOL... It wasn't hard!
With a nick-nack, bomb Iraq... all your money's spent...
I'm a wartime president!

DUI? I made bail... then Daddy sent me off to Yale!
With a nick-nack, bomb Iraq... all your money's spent...
I'm a wartime president!

We won the war, wave the flags... just ignore those body bags !
With a nick-nack, bomb Iraq... all your money's spent...
I'm a wartime president!

I'm in charge. I'm the Prez... cause I do just what Cheney says!
With a nick-nack, bomb Iraq... all your money's spent...
I'm a wartime president!

I'll do fine in the end, cause Halliburton is my friend !
With a nick-nack, bomb Iraq all your money's spent...
I'm a wartime president!
"Wartime President Song" c. 2004 Jenpet Music (ASCAP)

I believe that this is a rip off of an original. I found a download for this at:

http://www.robrob8.com/song_parody/war-pres-bush.htm

Which incidently caused my computer to crash and burn when I attempted to download it.

PP, the download you found links to exactly the same site. What makes you think it's a rip off? J/P, the song's OK but I get put off by stuff like 'this song is a hilarious romp' - I'm reading it now aren't I? You don't need to sell your song when someone's already clicked on the page. Incidentally, you should link performances to the recordings archive.

By the way, what does AWOL stand for? "Ask Where's Osama bin Laden"!
