Just Got Back From Uh 'Raybee
John McCain singing about his Iraq trip
to Irving Berlin's "Steppin' Out with My Baby"
(Steppin' out with my baby. Can't go wrong 'cause I'm in right.)

Just got back from uh 'Raybee.
Viet Cong will lose this fight.
Heard no if, and or maybe.
Casualties remain Bush-Light.

Fifty years, could be hundreds,
Bushie's through with sawing wood –
Hist'ry books will say he pulled out?
Naw, he wouldn't, if he could.

One brief chat with Maliki.
Same as Bush, liked what I saw.
Like with me, one can't be picky.
Claims he, too, enjoys a war.

Expect smooth sailing with no trimming of sail.
Their economy has no Bear Stearns left to fail.

Mortgage money in Iraq's
Plentiful and rates are good.
New gold mine for Goldman Sachs –
Paulson claims Bush said they could.

Waiting now for Petraeus –
Is he ready for Iran?
Not much time to not betray us.
Cheney's betting that he can.

Two more stars ought to do it –
Will that be four, five or six?
Lucky stars, he'll be thankin',
Stars that got Bush in this fix.
