Cheer Practice
 
 
Sean February 2004
 
   
  The troops are lined up to show off military power
  It's an election year let the doubters glower.
  Soldier's lined up for Bush number 2
  No one can drop out with a case of the flu.
   
  It was a drill practice to march on the beat
  No liberal allowed to sound a retreat.
  Snap to attention now at parade rest
  A photo op is ready to show the best.
   
  Now it's time for the hip, hip hurrah
  But voices fell silent failed to obey.
  Oh my God, the camara is rolling
  Cut, cut the sergeant was cajoling.
   
  Prop up the pres - we've got to rehearse
  We'll stay all night - a bit of coerce.
  I don't know but I been told
  Cheer practice for Bush is getting old.
   
  If you want R and R do it right
  Got to show our military might.
  We will drill till WMD is found
  Three cheers abound was it profound?
  Or a chilling, shilling ra ra killing sound.
