ON TOP OF MOUNT RUSHMORE

On top of Mt. Rushmore,
All covered with snow,
Some want to add Reagan,
But why I don't know

He'd like to take credit,
For the Commie's big swoon,
If he could he'd take credit,
For the sun and the moon

Invading Granada,
And helping the rich,
Don't make it in my book,
Though some say I bitch

But the deficit widened,
And the debt it did soar,
Don't forget Iran-Contra,
Should I mention some more?

The S&L scandal,
Cost billions it seems,
And it happened while Ronnie,
Passed out jelly beans

But let's not be hasty,
It wouldn't be fair,
To judge in a vacuum,
Who else is up there?

There's Abraham Lincoln,
He got lots of raves,
For saving the Union,
And freeing the slaves

George Washington led us,
Beat the Brits who were mean,
If it weren't for old Georgie,
We'd still have a Queen

What about Thomas Jefferson?
It says on his grave,
Declaration of Independence,
He authored - he gave

And lastly there's TR,
So bully was he,
He busted the trusts, boy,
And parks gave to thee

So there are four giants,
No if, ands, or butts,
To them you'd add Reagan,
I think that you're nuts

Besides which there's Nancy,
Why didn't you ask?
Her astrologer told her,
It's not time to blast

So best to forget it,
There just is no point,
If you have to add something,
Add Slick Willie's joint
