NO CHARGES
(To the tune of "No Standing," from the A.D. album
Reconstructions)
Underneath a cloud of darkness Ken is brooding
While the polls support his chosen enemy
As the lawyers in his office are despairing,
So is he
As the president's good fortune is returning,
And the war in Kosovo is winding down
So the independent counsel's smile is turning
To a frown
No charges, no charges still
No charges, no charges still
As the months are passing, public interest waning
And his sanction Congress readies to rescind
For the "special prosecutor" law, long hated,
Is at an end
No charges, no charges still
No charges, no charges still
As the president's good fortune is returning,
And the war in Kosovo is winding down
So the independent counsel's smile is turning
To a frown
No charges, no charges still
No charges, no charges still
