Concerning Ehud Olmert's refusal to step down or agree to hold new elections, we have nevertheless prepared a new election song to the tune of "Swing on a Star," original lyrics here, made famous by Bing Crosby:

 

Would you like them sent away far
Lots of feathers and lots of tar
We'd be better off than we are
But Olmert'd rather be a mule

A mule is an animal with long funny ears
Appeases at anything he hears
His bank book's brawny - and his brain is weak
He's just plain dirty with a yellow streak

And by the way, if you choose to vote for fools
The country's head will be a mule

Or would you like them sent away far
Lots of feathers and lots of tar
We'd be better off than we are
But Olmert'd rather be a pig

A pig is an animal with dirt on his face
His real estate deals a big disgrace
He's got no backbone, an appeasing dude
He's dumb and lazy - and extremely crude

But if you don't care a feather or a fig
The country's head will be a pig

Or would you like them sent away far
Lots of feathers and lots of tar
We'd be better off than we are
But Olmert'd rather be a fish

A fish won't do anything but swindle the hook
He's slimy and never reads a book
To fool the people is his only thought
And though he's slippery - he still gets caught
But if that sort of guy is what you wish
The country's head will be a fish

And all the monkeys ain't in the zoo
Every day you meet quite a few
So you see it's all up to you
We could be better than we are, hey
They could feathered with some tar, hey

Seated at defendant's bar, hey

We can be better than we are, hey….
