Look How They're Distracted
Sung to the Rodgers & Hart tune
"Isn't It Romantic?"
(Music in the night: A dream that can be heard.)

Look how they're distracted –
Seems like Congress might
    find its inquiries deferred.
Look how they're distracted –
An immigration fight
    so they forget I've overheard

Ev'ry little thing they're saying,
Now that I have bugged their phones –
What their lobbyists are paying –
Who's throwing them the biggest bones.

Look how they're distracted –
How soon they forget
    that they should be fighting back.
Look how they're distracted –
They've found something else to sweat
    instead of bugging and Iraq.

By leaving borders broken
I have guaranteed they will
Leave me alone
List'ning on the phone.
