Bonus Post: The Text of the song

If anyone wants a copy without a talk up just email me and I'll mail you the MP3

I am the very model of a bad attorney General

I've information criminal immoral and unethical

I know the chief executive I have supported him for years

Even when he would do cocaine and used to drink a lot of beers

I'm very well acquainted, too, with all matters political 

I wrote the defense of torture though it is hypocritical

I invented the theory of the unified executive

Whatever my boss wants to do, is only his perogative

Whatever his boss wants to do, is only his perogative

Whatever his boss wants to do, is only his perogative

Whatever his boss wants to do, is only his peroga-agog-ative

I'm very good at mangling anything that is logical

I argued habeas corpus was not quite constitutional

In short, in matters criminal immoral and unethical

I am the very model of a bad attorney General

In short, in matters criminal immoral and unethical

He is the very model of a bad attorney General

To me those checks and balances are merely something trivial

And the Geneva conventions are merely something optional

International laws I feel should be considered much more vague

Or one day we will be on trial for war crimes in front of the hague

I believe all abuse of power is thoroughly acceptable

I even fired prosecutors for reasons quite political

I data mine your phone records, your wire transfers and other things

I feel its quite acceptable to spy upon our citizens

He feels its quite acceptable to spy upon our citizens

He feels its quite acceptable to spy upon our citizens

He feels its quite acceptable to spy upon our citi-citi-zens

Then with a simple signing statement I can just ignore a bill

Even though legislation is supposed to come from on the hill

In short, in matters criminal immoral and unethical

I am the very model of a bad attorney General

In short, in matters criminal immoral and unethical

He is the very model of a bad attorney General

When testifying I may seem to know almost nothing at all

To congress I can only say that I just really can’t recall

They’ve really made a fool of me, though I am the president’s voice

I’ll never be a supreme court justice because I am pro-choice

Even John Ashcroft thinks that I have overstepped my legal role

And turned the Department of Justice into the worst kind of hole

In short, when my record is looked at in the light of history

You'll say a worse Attorney General had never sat a gee

You'll say a worse Attorney General had never sat a gee

You'll say a worse Attorney General had never sat a gee

You'll say a worse Attorney General had never sat a sat a gee

My history is one of hard work and one of due diligence

A lowly son of immigrants who has risen to prominence

But still, in matters criminal immoral and unethical

I am the very model of a bad Attorney General

But still, in matters criminal immoral and unethical

He is the very model of a bad Attorney General
