"Chess With Chavez"

(And a much deserved retaliatiion coming anytime soon)

Hugo, Hugo Chavez, that's el Presidente's name.
Playing chess with oil moguls? Chess is his game.
Chess wasn't the game of Big Oil's oil moguls.
Ogling oil fields was their claim to fame.

Ogling somebody else's, of course they want it.
They want it, they take it. It's as simple as that.
Public relations, assassinations and bribes
To the right people as they go to the mat.

Until they met Hugo, el Presidente,
Who announced to the moguls, "I'm told you have plenty
In Swiss bank accounts and stock portfolios.
How much more do you need? It's coming out of your noses"

"But what of our shareholders? They're sure to bitch
If you increase your share, how'll they stay filthy rich?"
So they had Chavez abducted and their puppet sworn in.
Chavez people revolted; puppet's gone the next mornin'.

They checked the country's el Presidente,
But have been unable to checkmate him.
Impoverished pawns to the rescue.
Has Hugo enough? El Presidente's got plenty.

A business vacation in Venezuela?
Company planes? Why not bring their wives?
Not any more after the abduction.
Not if these oil moguled couples value their lives.

One bullet can cause considerable havoc,
Shot in Venezuela and now if shot here.
Looking over their shoulders in Bergdorf's and Saks,
Oil mogul's wives' eyes should be filled with fear.

Venezuelans love the NRA's PR
Making it easier for them to blend in.
More and more "Good Guys" will be licensed to carry
Before gun restrictions start to kick in.

Venezuelans packing in taxis and stores –
Beware, oil mogul wives; beware, oil mogul whores.
Oil moguls themselves picked a great way to live:
A shot in the back, or perhaps just a shiv.
