Cheney's Got a Gun

Dick Cheney, right, accepts his "straitshooter award" from Aerosmith

News Item: Vice President Dick Cheney shot a man while hunting in Texas. Now, according to Daley Show sources, his handlers have contracted Aerosmith to help deflect the blame.

Dumb, dumb, dumb, Dick, what have you done
Dumb, dumb, dumb, it's the sound of a gun
Dumb, dumb, dumb, Dick, been drinkin' rum
Dumb, dumb, dumb, it's the sound, it's the sound...
Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah....

Cheney's got a gun
Cheney's got a gun
His poll numbers come undone
From thinking about the Iraqi sun
What did his rich pal do?
What can we say that sounds true?

We'll say the quails they were nested
Dick found them underneath some grass
His friend, he had it comin'
Now that Cheney's got a gun
It don't matter he was orange vested

Cheney's got a gun
Cheney's got a gun
His hunting day had just begun
Now the story is being spun
Tell me now it's untrue
What did his rich pal do

He shot the little bitty quail
(That man donated to our last campaign)
We'll say the tall grass he was under
No signal, it was his blunder
We all know the veep wasn't to blame

Run away, run away from the blame
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Run away, run away from the blame
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away

Cheney's got a gun
Cheney's got a gun
His hunting day had just begun
Now the story is being spun
What did his rich pal do
It's Cheney's last big fuck you

He followed the quail nice and easy
And shot but missed, what a shame
He said 'cause Harry didn't see me
That man got peppered pretty good
Now his face ain't never gonna be the same

Run away, run away from the blame
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away

Cheney's got a gun
Cheney's got a gun
Cheney's got a gun
The truth is on the run
