This is a rewrite of "Letter to LBJ" which was recently posted on tompaxton.com by the
himself.
This transcription is purely my fault since I couldn't find one around for either this
or the original Letter to LBJ version.
Enjoy.
=============
Capo 2nd Fret
[Verse 1]
I got a letter from old George W.
It said "Son I hate to trouble ya
But this war of mine is going bad.
It's time for me to roll the dice;
I know you've already been there twice
But I am sending you back to Baghdad."
   [Chorus]
     But George W. told the nation
     "This is not an escalation;
     This is just a surge toward victory.
     Just to win my little war
     I'm sending twenty thousand more
     To help me save Iraq from Iraqis.
[Verse 2]
And so I made  it to Iraq
In time for one more sneak attack
And to my old battalion I was sent.
We drive around in our Humvees
Listening to The Black-Eyed Peas
And speaking fondly of the president.
   [Chorus]
     But George W. told the nation
     "This is not an escalation;
     This is just a surge toward victory.
     Just to win my little war
     I'm sending twenty thousand more
     To help me save Iraq from Iraqis.
[Verse 3]
Celebrities all come to see us
Grateful they don't have to be us
Politicians show their best face card.
Where is Bubba? Where's our leader?
Where's our favorite lip reader?
AWOL from the Texas National Guard
   [Chorus]
     But George W. told the nation
     "This is not an escalation;
     This is just a surge toward victory.
     Just to win my little war
     I'm sending twenty thousand more
     To help me save Iraq from Iraqis.
[Verse 4]
If you're hunkered in Fallujah
Wondering who it was who screwed ya
Wondering what became of “Shock and Awe!”
You are feeling semi-certain
It has to do with Halliburton
Dick Cheney's why you drew that fatal straw.
   [Chorus]
     But George W. told the nation
     "This is not an escalation;
     This is just a surge toward victory.
     Just to win my little war
     I'm sending twenty thousand more
     To help me save Iraq from Iraqis.
