lyrics

I remember it well, it was a luxury hotel
With a bar made of diamonds and gold
There was Tony and George, and Maggie and Ron
And Billy with a joint he just rolled

They were sipping their drinks and having a laugh
So I thought here’s my chance to get in
There were questions that I had for all of them
But would they confess to their sins?

I went up to Maggie, she smiled and said “what can I do?”
(I said) “Give me some answers and promise that they will be true”
I asked why she made friends with torturers like Pinochet
As I watched her and waited to see just what she had to say
She walked away

Then I collared old George, put my arm on his back
And said “I think that Saddam was bad -
But I’d like to ask you if you went after him
Just to get revenge for your Dad?”

And Tony beside him was next in my aim
I wanted to ask what he knew
Did he really believe in the dossier
Or was it George turning the screw?

They smiled at each other while getting their answers prepared
I thought they’d be honest because of the God that they shared
Then George winked at Tony and whispered “Is this time to pray?”
As I watched them and waited to see just what they had to say
They walked away

Was I dreaming? Perhaps so
Was there meaning? I don’t know
Were they guilty? I think yes
On the evidence at hand that is an educated guess

Then I went up to Bill, asked him “Did you inhale?”
And was Monica good with her lips?”
He said “yes” to the first and answered the next
Saying “better with her fingertips”

He was honest and straight, so I just couldn’t wait
To meet Ronnie and get him to spill
He bought me a drink and he held my hand
But he didn’t answer like Bill

I told him I’d heard he was tired of the movies he made
That he craved after stardom, a role that would give accolades
Is that why he wanted the top job in the US of A?
As I watched him and waited to see just what he had to say
He walked away
