Iraq
The Night They Pulled Old Soddie Out
2003-12-31
Too funny to pass up.
Commissar in musical mood these days. Maybe is so-called bourgeois "holiday spirit." Here is song for glorious Fedayeen comrades (apologies to Joan Baez):

The Night They Pulled Old Soddie Out

Muammar Q. is the name,
and I served with the Fedayeen,
’Til Rummie’s Air Force came
and bombed ole Iraq again.

In the winter of double-oh-three,
We were worried, especially me.
By April the ninth, Baghdad had fell,
It’s a time I remember, oh so well,

The Night They Pulled Old Soddie Out,
and AK’s were ringing,
The Night They Pulled Old Soddie Out,
and the people were singin’.

They went
Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha,
Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha,
Ha, Ha,

Back with my wife in Tripoli,
When one day she called to me,
"Muammar, quick, come see TV,
The 4ID pulled out old Soddie!"
Now I don’t mind makin’ nukes,
and I don’t care if the weapon’s no use.
Ya take what ya need and ya leave the rest,
But they should never have taken the very best.

The Night They Pulled Old Soddie Out,
and AK’s were ringing,
The Night They Pulled Old Soddie Out,
and the people were singin’.

Like the Colonel before me,
I will rule my land,
Like my brother above me,
who took a rebel stand.
He was just sixty-six, proud and bold,
But a Yankee pulled him outta his hole,
I swear by the sand below my feet,
You won’t pull Muammar back up
when he’s in defeat.

The Night Muammar Made Nice,
and the Dems were cryin’,
The Night Muammar Made Nice,
and the Lefties were screamin’.

They went
No, No, No, No, No, No,
No, No, No, No, No, No,
No, No,

She was probably against the war, so I wouldn't worry about it. ;)
