"PEOPLE"

 

Special Lyrics

By Alan & Marilyn Bergman

 

PEOPLE

I MEAN G - O - P - EOPLE -

WHO'D BELIEVE THERE'S SUCH PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD?

BUSH SEEZA

LOTTA CONDOLEEZA,

THEY'RE DIVIDING THE PLANET'S OIL

ACCORDING TO RICHARD "POIL"

AND THEY'RE ALL JUST TRAINEES

OF CHENEY'S.

 

RUMSFELD,

WE MUST GET RID OF RUMSFELD -

HE'S THE SPOOKIEST PERSON IN THE WORLD.

AS FOR POWELL -

HE'S NEITHER FISH NOR FOWL.

HE'S IN THE BACK OF THE ROOM,

WHILE THEY'RE ALL FIDDLING WITH DOOM.

NO ONE'S MINDING THE STORE.

WHAT'S MORE,

LET'S DISCUSS THIS WAR WE'RE LOST IN,

DON'T ASK WHAT IT'S COSTIN' -

WHAT'S A TRILLION OR TWO TO RULE THE WORLD?

 

(Second chorus)

THE SENATE

HOW I WANT THE SENATE!

ALL WE NEED IS TWO PEOPLE IN THE WORLD!

I SEEA

ANTONIN SCALIA.

HOW I DREAD EV'RY TIME HE SITS -

SCARED OUT OF MY WOLFOWITZ.

TIME THOSE NEO-CON GUYS

WERE GONE GUYS.

 

THEY'RE LYING -

WHILE THE GLOBE IS FRYING -

AND THE FISHES ARE DYING IN THE WORLD.

THEIR SOLUTION

FOR ALL OF THE POLLUTION:

IS JUST TO BEAR IT AND GRIN,

AND PRACTICE NOT BREATHING IN.

BUT THINGS ARE GONNA BE GREAT.

JUST WAIT -

WHEN THE WHITE HOUSE STATIONERY,

READS PRESIDENT JOHN KERRY -

WE'LL BE THE LUCKIEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD!

 

Original music: Jule Styne

Original lyrics: Bob Merrill
