He's Gone
(Sung to the tune of "She's Gone" by Hall & Oates)

Dedicated to former House Majority Leader, Tom DeLay (R-TX), who has quit Congress rather than run for re-election, after being indicted in a series of scandals, with more legal troubles to come

Sorry, no MIDI music is available

(instrumental intro)

Once was riding high, helped rule the nation.
Tom DeLay was tryin' to sell our country, frightfully... yeah...
He wants a drink after court's decision.
He f*cked up, you see, illegally...

He's gone! (He's gone!)
Hurrah! Hurrah!
DeLay will burn and get wasted.
He's gone! (He's gone!)
He was a devil; they've replaced him.
He's gone! (He's gone)
Hurrah! Hurrah!
Things went wrong...

Tom ignored the warnings; crook who used terror.
Propped up the Fool Bush, through his... House command.
New race? He's hasn't any hunger.
He can only flee; law's shaken this troll, totally...

He's gone! (He's gone!)
Hurrah! Hurrah!
DeLay will burn and get wasted.
He's gone! (He's gone!)
He was a devil; they've replaced him.
He's gone! (He's gone)
Hurrah! Hurrah!
Things went wrong...

(instrumental break)

Crooked; his temerity gets no pity.
Abramhoff and DeLay's cronies, through gifts, bought their way...
DeLay's great power now is just a memory.
He will never be... what he was (was), 'cause he's (he's)...

He's gone! (He's gone!)
Hurrah! Hurrah!
DeLay will burn and get wasted.
He's gone! (He's gone!)
He was a devil; they've replaced him.
He's gone! (He's gone)
Hurrah! Hurrah!
Things went wrong...

(instrumental break)

He's gone! (He's gone!)
Hurrah! Hurrah!
DeLay will burn and get wasted.
He's gone! (He's gone!)
He was a devil; they've replaced him.
He's gone! (He's gone)
Hurrah! Hurrah!
Things went wrong...

(repeat chorus and fade)
