The networks give Bush knocks or mocks. They paint him stubborn as an ox And clever as a box of rocks. So set the channel, please, to Fox.
Some commentators on the box Like making us the laughingstocks. Upon foul PBS a pox! Just set the channel, please, to Fox.
That CNN will broadcast crocks On Arabs managing our docks And deaths in wars and other shocks. Now set the channel, please, to Fox.
For me, the news that really rocks Confirms beliefs held by our flocks. My mind remains quite closed, with locks. So set the channel, please, to Fox.
