Shameless Shelby's Lifted Leg
Doggedly attempting blackmail

Northrop Grumman's been served notice
    that Boeing's sick and tired
Of the earmarks they've been buying
    with the Senator they've hired.

For Shelby's "Hold" on nominees
    is blackmail straight from Wall Street's book
And sets their industry up for
    that kind of donnybrook.

What if Aetna's Dodds discovers
    flying tankers are passé
And aren't needed by the drones
    flown by the C.I.A.?

Yet here's Northrop Grumman's Shelby
    with lifted leg aimed at a tree.
Won't someone please inform him
    that he's peeing needlessly?
