The Presidential Pretzel

It was a presidential pretzel
It was leather brown with a gold leaf trim
It was a presidential pretzel
The one that almost done the president in.

If you eat it too fast
You might choke on it
If something bad happens
You can certainly joke on it.

Joke joke joke joke
They'll never know, holy smoke.
Joke joke joke joke
The one that almost done the president in.

It was a presidential pretzel
It was leather brown with a gold leaf trim
It was a presidential pretzel
The one that almost done the president in.

It was a presidential pretzel
It was leather brown with a gold leaf trim
It was a presidential pretzel
The one that almost done the president in.

spoken

look at his face man,
It looks like he jammed the pretzel
into the side of his head or somethin'.

Yeah, packs a wallop that pretzel.

hey, are you sure it wasn't a cornchip
from enron?

yeah, you mean like a frito chip of the ken lay kind?
