'Walk Away DeLay' by the Right Banke

My pal Will Bunch over at Attytood has penned these clever lyrics, which are to be sung to "Walk Away, Renee" in honor of a certain disgraced Texas congressman.

All together now . . .

And when I see the cash that flowed one way
The tribes we used to rip off . . . every day

Just walk away DeLay
They weren’t gonna vote for you back home
The empty K Street office suites are not the same
Jack’s not to blame

From deep inside the tears you’re forced to cry
Now when you grab a meal . . . you’ll have to buy

Just walk away DeLay
And hope a defense contractor buys your home
Now as a plane takes off for Scotland’s finest links
Not there . . . it stinks

Your name is still atop a . . . kids’ charity
Now we all know its aid was . . . meant for thee

Just walk away DeLay
And pray federal agents aren’t at your home
Now as your aides have flipped . . . against your crooked scam
They’ve burst your dam

Just walk away DeLay
The right wing won’t follow you back home
An empty cell awaits . . . to end your life of fame
Who will you blame?
