Blackwater

Blackwater, Blackwater,
The answer to his prayer?
Blackwater, Blackwater,
How dangerous you're there.

Confronting criminals with hymnals –
What? You say that isn't you?
You're paid lackeys in Bush khakis?
Who'd you say was your guru?
Blackwater, Blackwater,
Stay the hell away.

Blackwater, Blackwater,
Conservative as hell –
Blackwater, Blackwater,
Liberty's death knell.

Your boss gave dough to Tom DeLay
And financed Rick Santorum.
His sister married into Amway –
Now there's an influential quorum.
Blackwater, Blackwater,
Stay the hell away.

Blackwater, Blackwater,
Three hundred bucks a day?
Blackwater, Blackwater,
To keep bad guys at bay?

That's why we have the National Guard,
The State Police and local cops –
But mercenaries in our yard?
Let's hope it's for Bush photo ops.
Blackwater, Blackwater,
Stay the hell away.
