(instrumental intro)
Gonzo grilled in the Senate, got panned
For his evasive answers, in the end, could get canned.
Before Congress, Gonzo's grilled.
Gonzo's grilled; who got the knife?
Eight U.S. Attorneys; he caused this strife.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
CHORUS:
Gonzo's grilled, Gonzo's grilled.
Jobs for U.S. Attorneys, Bushies filled
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
Why was he appointed? Was he the best?
No, Gonzalez was loyal; passed Bush's test.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
Prosecutors scandal, all hell's broke loose.
Gonzo's grilled, Senate said "Vamoose!"
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
Gonzo's grilled, Gonzo's grilled.
Jobs for U.S. Attorneys, Bushies filled
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
Now it's clear as crystal, Al has no charm.
Al Gonzalez is clueless; his party's alarmed.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
So, Gonzalez said sorry, but will not take blame.
Fired U.S. Attorneys would not play his game.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
Gonzo's grilled, Gonzo's grilled.
Jobs for U.S. Attorneys, Bushies filled.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
Gonzo's grilled on Capitol Hill
For inept performance, career he will kill.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
Gonzo's grilled; he looked so bad;
The worst round of questioning he ever had.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
Gonzo's grilled, Gonzo's grilled.
Jobs for U.S. Attorneys, Bushies filled.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
Gonzo's grilled, Gonzo's grilled.
Jobs for U.S. Attorneys, Bushies filled.
That was why Gonzo's grilled.
