What about contacting the
...guys that did "Cheney's Got a Gun," which was great, and see if they'd be interested in doing a variation on Buffalo Springfield's anti-war song "For What It's Worth."


My alterations to the lyrics:

There's something happening here
What it is is perfectly clear
There's a man with a briefcase over there
Tellin' Karl he's got to beware
I think it's time we stop BushCo, what's that sound
Multi-count indictments comin' down

/ E - A - / / / / E D A C /

There's battle lines being drawn
Fitzgerald's right, and BushCo is wrong
Americans speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from the Neocon kind
I think it's time we stop BushCo, what's that sound
Multi-count indictments comin' down

What a field-day for the heat
Before a grand jury, Karl takes a seat
Singing songs and tellin' his side
Sayin', I'll give you Cheney if you'll spare my hide
It's time we stop BushCo, what's that sound
Multi-count indictments comin' down

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life fascist Neocons creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away

We better stop BushCo, what's that sound
Multi-count indictments comin' down
Stop BushCo, what's that sound
Multi-count indictments comin' down
Stop BushCo, what's that sound
Multi-count indictments comin' down
Stop BushCo, what's that sound
Multi-count indictments comin' down

--------------------------------------------

Here are the actual lyrics:

ARTIST: Buffalo Springfield
TITLE: For What It's Worth
Lyrics and Chords


There's something happening here
What it is ain't exactly clear
There's a man with a gun over there
Telling me I got to beware
I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

/ E - A - / / / / E D A C /

There's battle lines being drawn
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong
Young people speaking their minds
Getting so much resistance from behind
I think it's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

What a field-day for the heat
A thousand people in the street
Singing songs and carrying signs
Mostly say, hooray for our side
It's time we stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down

Paranoia strikes deep
Into your life it will creep
It starts when you're always afraid
You step out of line, the man come and take you away

We better stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, hey, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, now, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
Stop, children, what's that sound
Everybody look what's going down
