Tweaked on Treachery
To the tune of Raised on Robbery -- Joni Mitchell I couldn't find a .midi sound file for this song. I'd appreciate someone putting me on the track of one. © 2005 Dennis Mansker He was sitting in a cell at the graybar hotel, Wondering how he got there, Feeling sorry for himself. A little secret-telling, giving up a name, It was just a lady, Valerie Plame. I said she's going down, Wilson alone is such a shame, He gets the blame, she gets the killin' flame. I was a joker, I claimed it was just a game. Hey, Dubya, you got lots of clout, I want out of prison, And you can get me out. Ain't no need of thinkin', I was tweaked on treachery. I talked to Bob Novak, But I didn't say her name, I said Joe Wilson's wife, But it could be any dame. I try and I try, I can't make any sense. They're calling me a traitor, I thought the truth was a defense. I'm mean and I'm schemin', I was tweaked on treachery. Joe Wilson went to Niger once, Was lookin' all around for yellowcake. There wasn't any for Saddam to buy, Showed our evidence was all fake. He wrote a story in the New York Times Put Bush in the ditch, I won't get any rest, That son of a bitch, His wife's life's risky-- I was tweaked on treachery. You know I'm not bad lookin', But I do feel like a dope. The guys call me honey, When they want to play some "drop the soap". Bush, where you goin'? Don't go yet, I'm still in prison, you're in my debt. You said I'd be pardoned. I was tweaked on treachery. |
