“THE DUBAI OILBILLIES”

[Sung to the melody of the Beverly Hillbillies theme]

Come and listen to a story about a man named Dick
A rich billionaire, owned the oil in every slick
Then one day he was huntin’ for more crude
And up through the ground came a bubblin’ dude.

Satan, that is, the devil, Lucifer.

Well the first thing you know ol’ Dick has a scare
Halliburton folk said ‘Dick move away from there’
Said ‘the Middle East is the best place to lie’
So he loaded up his loot and he moved to Dubai.

Tax shelters, that is, oil barons, corporate thieves.

Well now it’s time to say goodbye to Dick’s balderdash
And he would like to thank you folks fer all that kindly cash
You’re all invited back again to this locality
To have a heapin’ helpin’ of his crass mendacity.

Neo con man, that is. Set a spell. Take your shoes off. Leave a comment. Y’all come back now, y’hear?
