Description:
This is a song written because of a suggestion of Mikki Taro. She thought up the title. It is a fun song about a sad time in American history. I think that the history books will show not just that Bush was our most incompetent president but that he wasn't even the real president, Cheyney was. This is a man who got upset because a news commentator asked him about his daughter's lesbianism and said it was over the line, but thoght nothing of inflicting rape, torture and destruction upon the daughters of Iraq. Most of whom were guilty of nothing except being in the wrong country at the wrong time. Pray it never happens here.
We should be celebrating his conviction of a felony but instead power rules all until supplanted by a greater power.

Lyrics:
Am G AmCheney's got a gun, Cheney's got a gun, they say it's a real big one, you better
watch out, you better watch out
He even shoots his friends, he even shoots his friends, got an itchy trigger finger,
you better watch out, you better watch out
He thinks your head is a bird, he thinks your head is a bird, he's got a real big urge,
you better watch out, you better watch out
Cheney's got a bomb, Cheney's got a bomb, they say it's a real big one,
You better watch out, You better watch out, if your country has oil
Cheney loves freedom, Cheney loves freedom, But you better watch what you say
Just don't get in his way, got an itchy trigger finger, you better watch out because
Cheney's got a gun!

"He thinks your head is a bird"... hehe. I like the imagery that provides... crazy and evil.
It is a sad time indeed. My jaw hit the floor so long ago I just don't know how to react any more to the insanity of it all and it's been relentless.
I figured a long time ago that their strategy for getting away with it all is to innundate us with it so much that we just can't keep up with it and it just becomes like white noise to the public. Sort of like Goebles' "Big Lie" concept.

Yeah I liked singing that line also. And I agree with your "Big Lie" theory. Whenever someone questions something outrageous they always say "well if it was true you couldn't keep something like that secret." True, it isn't secret they just surround it with so much disinformation that unless you spend a lot of time on research you have no idea what is true and what is not.

Tom,
That is one scary picture of the V.P. , he does shoot at
anything that moves (or is Democratic) A proper exile
to Iran or Iraq would be a fitting end to the Bush/Cheney
Regime.Maybe Scooter will talk in his Hotel Suite Jail
Cell.
I hope D.C meets Janie....
sorry for the delayed response...come on, i thought you were going to rock all out like Aerosmith...cool lyrics, bronco...the picture...ugh! it's one of those images that make you want to choke on a pretzel...hey, check out this music video/cartoon...thanx for sharing the tune...
bronco
Thanks for stopping by Mikki! Glad you liked the lyrics. As far as copying Aeorosmith that is something I am just not capable of. I are what I are which is an acoustic singer/songwriter and a country bluesman. Get Johnny to do an Aeorosmith framework and we will re-record it.
Don't turn your back on these guys! Good tune Tom. I always enjoy your vocals. The phased lead riffs were especially pleasant. Love the change-up in the middle. Bravo. Cheney may have a gun, but Tom Bronco has a guitar, a voice and a heart!
Be well!
bronco
Glad you enjoyed it. Should have been posted closer to the accident and it would have gotten more attention. Had fun doing it and didn't really expect a big reaction.

I Have always considered this guy to be a mean stupid idiot. I am so tired of their definition of freedom."freedom is good as long as you agree with us".. Lets hope the guy suffers in another life.
bronco
It was a funny, honest portrait of a horrible person, yes?
selters
YES!
