This Is Sam Brownback, Mrs. Falk
To be sung to Irving Berlin's
"This Is The Army, Mr. Jones"
(…No private rooms or telephones)

This is Sam Brownback, Mrs. Falk.
Did you know that embryos can talk?
Some wonder if their stem cells would help blind folks see,
Or would they become Senators like me.

This is your Bushie, Mrs. Jones.
Guess you're stuck with your arthritic bones.
Brownback claims the embryos he's talking to
Would like to help, but he's said, "No can do!"

So do what the Senator commands
Unless a Signing Statement from my office countermands.

This is Sam Brownback, Mrs. Beets.
I'm concerned with padded potty seats.
No more pinched bottoms for this Senator,
And Ms. Merkel's safe from any Bush encore.
