Silly Thinking

STShowcase.

Your host: Hal Holbrook.

HH: Good evening everyone I�m Hal Holbrook and this is �STShowcase�, I�m you host Hal Holbrook. Good evening, and happy Memorial Day weekend.

Memorial Day is the unofficial kickoff for summer here in these United States. A time when Americans turn into tourists and explore this great land of ours, and other lands as well, if it�s safe.

But Memorial Day also honors our proud men and women in the armed services, particularly the ones who died in battle, at war, protecting, defending, and attacking innocents, in the name of this great country.

Today on �Showcase� we thought we would Wisk you back in time. on our ST Time Machine, to the beginning of this invasion that we started in Iraq and take a look at how the very fertile Douglas Lain thought about this invasion.

So now, with words and lyrics by Randy Newman, is our Memorial Day gift for you and your family� From March 19th, 2003�

Here are the lyrics to a song that sums up the whole damned thing!

Randy Newman - Political Science

No one likes us-I don't know why
We may not be perfect, but heaven knows we try
But all around, even our old friends put us down
Let's drop the big one and see what happens

We give them money-but are they grateful?
No, they're spiteful and they're hateful
They don't respect us-so let's surprise them
We'll drop the big one and pulverize them

Asia's crowded and Europe's too old
Africa is far too hot
And Canada's too cold
And South America stole our name
Let's drop the big one
There'll be no one left to blame us

We'll save Australia
Don't wanna hurt no kangaroo
We'll build an All American amusement park there
They got surfin', too

Boom goes London and boom Paree
More room for you and more room for me
And every city the whole world round
Will just be another American town
Oh, how peaceful it will be
We'll set everybody free
You'll wear a Japanese kimono
And there'll be Italian shoes for me

They all hate us anyhow
So let's drop the big one now
Let's drop the big one now
