Sing It, Willie
Every time we come for him,
He slips away, [he's mighty thin.]
Then he goes and makes a tape
About his latest, best escape,
So that everybody knows.
And so his legend grows.
(Chorus)
All the Pakistanis say:
"We could have had him any day."
They only let him get away
Out of kindness, I suppose.

Isn't this the dude who did 9-11 to us?
