VINTAGE rick

It was nearly unimaginable back then: Israelis and Palestinians shaking hands on the White House lawn. It's even harder to imagine now. Remember September of '93 in this Vintage Rick!

That's How You Play Iraq

By Rick Horowitz

You put battalions in,
You pull battalions out,
You put battalions in,
And you throw 'em off your track,
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you hope they cut you slack,
That's how you play Iraq.

You put the benchmarks in,
You pull the benchmarks out,
You put the benchmarks in,
Then you say they're out of whack,
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you hope they cut you slack,
That's how you play Iraq.


You put statistics in,
You pull statistics out,
You put statistics in,
Till it's never white or black,
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you hope they cut you slack,
That's how you play Iraq.

You put your Shiites in,
You put your Sunnis out,
You put your Shiites in,
And they still don't have the knack,
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you hope they cut you slack,
That's how you play Iraq.

You put predictions in,
You pull predictions out,
You put predictions in,
And you toss 'em in a sack,
You do the Hokey Pokey,
And you hope they cut you slack,
That's how you play Iraq.

You put commercials in,
You pull commercials out,
You put commercials in,
Just to give the Dems a smack,
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you hope they cut you slack,
That's how you play Iraq.

You put your "kick ass" in,
You put your "kick ass" out,
You put your "kick ass" in --
Shake your sacroiliac!
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you hope they cut you slack,
That's how you play Iraq.

You put your future in,
You put your future out,
You put your future in,
And someday you're on a plaque,
You do the Hokey Pokey
And you pray they cut you slack,
That's how you play Iraq!
