Clinton and NRA Trade Schoolyard Taunts

President Clinton is a big fat liar
Says the NRA
(As if that news will set the world on fire)

The NRA uses intimidation
Says the lame-duck prez
(As if that's news to this shell-shocked nation)

Slick Bill wants to kill the Second Amendment
Says Moses Heston
(As if that could never get our consent)

The NRA can't stand to compromise
Says a White House source
(As if that could ever be a surprise)

Shut the fuck up you putrid buckets of pus!
Thousands are dying!
(As if they care about the rest of us)
