NOW...that hanging around is about to take on a whole new meaning

How did Saddam leave his hole

Did he go out in a fire fight
Did he go out in a blaze of Glory
No we went out like a bully
Who made himself the hero

In all of his own stories

********

Did he blow himself up
Like he asked others children to do
No he went out for a dental exam
And to get himself a bowl of stew

Did he go out in a battle
Of rockets bullets and guns
No he went out for a hair cut
And left that to his sons

Did he go down fighting
Even if it came to hand to hand
No he went out for a change of clothes
And an unrepentant man

Did he go out meeting his maker
Did he go out dust to dust
No he went out to say he was a ruler
Who was firm but just

********

Did he go out like his Armies
That he sent to their death
No he went out for some fresh air
And to catch his breath

Did he go out like the Kurds
He had Chemical Ali kill
No it seems he found himself
Another destiny to fulfill

********

Did he go out in a fire fight
Did he go out in a blaze of glory
No he went out like a bully
Who made himself the hero

In all of his own stories
