A Make Over
Sung to the Fats Waller favorite
"I'm Gonna Sit Right Down And Write Myself A Letter"

I'm going to waste your time to say things will get better
And make believe the war is through.
I'll try to make it sound so sweet
You'll never know that we've been beat –
That defeat's around the corner,
That Baghdad is a goner.

I'll ditch my smile and prob'ly take a header.
I'll try to make myself brand spanking new.
I'll deny I'm born again and that Moses wrote all ten,
And make believe that I'm like you.
