Zan Overall sings his "I Want to Believe You Mr. President"


I Want to Believe You Mr. President 
Words and music by Zan Overall (ASCAP).

Lyrics
About 9/11, Mr. President, 
I want to believe 
what you told me is true,

But the more that I learn about 9/11,
Believing you gets harder to do.
(Spoken) But I want to believe you, Mr. President!



Verse 1:
They say "You stayed there much too long

Listening to the children prattle.

You should have grabbed your trusty sword

And headed for the battle."
But I can excuse you

Cause I have no doubt:

You only stayed around to see

How the "My Pet Goat" story came out.


Chorus:
About 9/11, Mr. President, 
I want to believe 
what you told me is true,

But the more that I learn about 9/11,
Believing you gets harder to do.
(Spoken) But I want to believe you, Mr. President!



Verse 2:

About those huge Twin Towers---

You said that fire brought them down,
Although no fire ever brought

A steel frame building to the ground.
I hate to say it
But could it be?

Your guys brought them down

With some well-placed TNT?

Or maybe Thermate----but that don't rhyme.


Repeat Chorus:



Verse 3:
You said a seven-fifty-seven hit the Pentagon,

Though we only found a twenty foot hole.

I want to believe you

But upon my soul!
How could such a big plane

Go through such a little hole?

(That does puzzle a lot of people, sir.

They also keep asking why you won't let them
 see all the videos of what hit the Pentagon.)


Repeat Chorus



Verse 4:  

You said your guys all did their best

When Nine Eleven came along

But no matter what they tried to do

Everything went wrong!

No one got fired 

After the fight

So I can't help thinking:

Maybe things went right!


Repeat Chorus:



Verse 5:

To protect the Pentagon

You scrambled jets from miles away

When there were jets at Andrews
A mere twelve miles away.

Not to call on Andrews 

Would seem almost a crime!

Were you afraid that if you did

They might get there in time?


Repeat Chorus:






Verse 6:

Why don't you catch Osama Bin Laden?

Are you afraid if you did he might say?
"Don't be mad, sir!

Oh, please don't scold me!
I only did just what you told me!"
.....
("At that hospital in Dubai")


Repeat Chorus:



Verse 7:

 Who set up those pesky war games

That helped the "attack" succeed?

Was it OBL near the Caspian Sea
Or VP Cheney in downtown D.C.?


Repeat Chorus:



Verse 8:

They call your " 9/11 Commission," 

The " 9/11 Omission."

They should hasten to a confessional.

Make an act of contrition

For their sins of omission
As well as their sins of commission!


Repeat Chorus:






Verse 9 (alternate version of Verse 3):
I can explain

Why you sat there hearing stories,

Why you sat there in a schoolroom

Instead of giving orders.

I can explain why you seemed at such a loss.

I think that you were waiting

For orders from your boss.
..............(Cheney, that is.)
