I wrote and performed this (open mike night at The Ark in Ann Arbor, see
http://www.a2ark.org/ , a place where Gilda Radner and countless others have performed) around October 2004.
It has a striking coincidental resemblance to "Lay Lady Lay" by Bob Dylan of Victoria's Secret advertisement fame. So feel free to play, or hum, that song while reading the lyrics to my version.
Note I wrote this almost a year ago, so it has a certain "prophetic quality" to it...
(You can also find it online on my website, at
http://d-bo.com/LayLayDeLay.html .)
Perhaps I'll record it and offer a DOWNLOADABLE VERSION for folks... !!!

Lyrics to "Lay Lay DeLay":
Lay lay DeLay, someday you'll be indicted
Hey Tom DeLay your 3 friends got caught instead
Before being in Congess you exterminated bugs
Now you're just some common criminal thug
(more DeLay below fold)
Lay lay DeLay don't lay on my big brass bed
Hey hey DeLay, investigated by the Feds
Your hands are dirty though your clothes are clean
You're the sorriest thing that I've ever seen
Bay-bay DeLay just what are you tryin' to do
You're no better than some fifth-rate Texas prostitute
Watching you try to pompously orate
Is like watching a chicken try to masturbate
Lay Tom DeLay, your mama wishes you were dead
Hey hey DeLay, sometimes I wonder if you're gay
Sweet menage-a-trois, with you and Dubya and Chey-nay
That special look that you get in your eyes
When by Halliburton you are sodomized
Hey Tom DeLay, buddy you are gonna pay
