Salinas De Gortari

Contributed by tryals on Sunday, 4th July 2004 @ 04:32:55 PM in AEST
Topic: political

Born to a U.S. educated Mexican cacique,
He shot the maid when he was only three,
Singin Davie Crockett's got nothin on me,
Salinas Salinas De Gortari,
King of the wild frontiers,
Friend of the Bushes and trade so free,
of America Mexico Canada - all three,
Writing for the Wall Street Journal to inform humanity,
Stole an election with computer trickery,
Proving that computers ain't too trusty,
Salinas Salinas De Gortari,
King of the wild frontiers,
When things got too hot in Mexico he had to flee,
Across the northern border where it's so free,
If you stole enough money,
Salinas Salinas De Gortari,
King of the wild frontiers,
I hate to say it but the Democrats were wrong,
to listen to the Bush bird's haunting song,
For Americans one job in the U.S. industrial crush,
Is worth ten in the Mexican bush,
International bankers got the money, America gets the oil,
Mexican workers get nothing but toil,
Proving once again that Carlos Salinas' Harvard education,
Was a good investment for international industrialists and the American administration,
But thanks to NAFTA the U.S. - Mexican border,
Don't look like it did before,
Thanks to NAFTA it looks more like a victim of a Third World War,
Salinas Salinas De Gortari
King of the wild fron - tears,
