(unreleased - unlike Martha)
We haven't caught Osama
We spoke a bit too rashly
He just released a video
With Mary-Kate and Ashley
He's there in all the tabloids
He's on a box of Wheaties
Yet, in this War on Terror
We have caught a few HVTs
(that's "high value targets")
We're cracking down on cancer-stricken stoners
And insidious independent bookstore owners
Not to mention dangerous ImCloners
And self-reliant women who are Democratic donors
Burn, Goody Stewart, Burn!
Burn, Goody Stewart, Burn!
You know, we love to nail 'em
Just like they did in Salem
Burn!
The prosecutor knows what a snap it'll be
To prove you are a witch with a capital B
And then he'll spirit you away to your incarceration
Where you'll be privy to the latest inside information
We're sure when you unloaded all that stock you meant
To crumple each incriminating document
But a person of your gender
Might just as well surrender
And throw her reputation and career right in the blender
Burn, Goody Stewart, Burn!
Burn, Goody Stewart, Burn!
We know which witch is which in
The oven in hell's kitchen
Burn!
Oh, yes, you're under a curse
A curse that only witchcraft could reverse
'Cause every single one of us could be charged with something worse
If you neuter us
Be-hooter us
And give us each a uterus and a purse
And yours is just another case of bait-and-switch
Until we catch the one who's really Satan's witch
We'd like to build a fire
On a pyre even higher
And put away the shrillest voice in all the shrewish choir
Burn, Goody Clinton, Burn!
(It's really Hillary)
Burn, Goody Clinton, Burn!
(We'd like to pillory)
The leader of the coven
We'd shove into the oven
Burn, burn, burn!
