See dialogue. - TARMAC THE MAGNIFICENT appears wearing a cape. - Marlin continues to speak. See dialogue. - Marlin will hand you a joke in a sealed envelope. [The joke will be written out on the back of the envelope and a list will also be provided for you on the podium.] You will hold the envelope up in the air, close to your forehead and read it. Marlin, at this point, may repeat what you say, similar to Ed McMahon. You will open the envelope, blow into the envelope, and read the card. - There may be an occasion where a joke does not get the most enthusiastic response. In this case you will have the option to chide the audience. We will provide short quips/jokes that you can choose from. As well as a list of quips to use when Marlin gets out of line. GRIDIRON DINNER SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1992 MARLIN: Ladies and Gentlemen: I regret that the President of the United States will not be able to speak to you this evening. However, we do have a very special guest tonight -- a visitor from the East, who is retiring from late night television after thirty years. He is the all knowing, all seeing, sage, and soothsayer, and former baggage handler for Air Sununu: Tarmac the Magnificent. Tarmac knows the answers before he knows the questions. Kind of like Presidential politics. With us tonight, Tarmac will answer the questions before he has seen them. As a child of four can see, these questions have been kept hermetically sealed, in a mayonnaise jar, on Funk and Wagnall's porch, in the House Bank. No one knows the contents of these envelopes. But you, oh mystical one, will ascertain the answer having never before heard the question. Here, old great Mystic, is the first envelope. PRESIDENT: You're padding your part, elephant breath Envelope number one. MARLIN: Funk and Wagnall's porch. Noon today. MARLIN: I hold in my hand the last envelope. {After cheering} PRESIDENT: May your first born daughter marry a Congressman and may your Nielsen ratings match my polls. A: The ideal Detroit, Michigan sound bite. Q: "Ich bin ein Mercedes owner." A: Que sera, sera. Q: Spanish, for "Read my lips". A: Saddam Hussein, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Paul Tsongas. Q: A scud, a stud, and a Fudd. A: Wheel of Fortune, McLaughlin Group, and Mario Cuomo. Q: A game show, a talk show, and a no show. A: Burton Lee, Big Ben, and Jerry Brown's flat tax. Q: Name a doc, a clock, and a crock. A: Sara McClendon and Jack Germond. Q: What two people would you not want to see dancing the Lambada? A: Looking for the Union label. Q: What did Lane Kirkland tell the press he was doing in the Ramada Inn with three members of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union? A: Russian capitalism, Reebok pumps, supermarket scanners. Q: Name three new inventions in 1992. A: A billion dollars. Q: What's the minimum contribution Ross Perot will accept on his 800 number? A: Gallapagos Islands, National Aquarium, and Jerry Brown. Q: Three places where you'll find a lot of turtlenecks. A: Cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev Q: Who's spent more time out of his country than George Bush? A: Three words that will bring the house down. Q: I'm outta here.

It feels like there's an overdraft. (TAKE SIP OF WATER) Excuse me, Ann. silver foot went down the wrong way. First thing Monday morning I'm getting my eyes examined. Out in the lobby, I swear I saw a guy in a turtleneck flashing an 800 number. Governor Jerry Brown was supposed to be here. But his turtleneck snagged in the zipper of his UAW jacket. A police emergency unit is using the Jaws of Life to remove him. The governor of New York was invited, but he couldn't make up his mind whether to fly, take the train, or wait 'til the '96 Gridiron. Bill Clinton planned to attend the dinner, 'til he heard the dessert topping was nutmeg. From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:51PM P03 - -2 Enjoyed the musical numbers and the droll, sophisticated, Noel Cowardesque skits. by the wit-challenged members of the press. Quite a coup hiring the authors of "Police Academy 9". Thank God the NEA doesn't fund your skits. Try to justify that to the voters. You people give "dysfunctional" a bad name. Your performances were riveting. There should be a warning label on the program "Immodiately following a Gridiron, do not operate heavy machinery". Nearly the second time this year I lost consciousness during a dinner. Your performances had all the fun of a Yassar Arafat bachelor party. Sitting through a Gridiron has always been my second favorite fantasy. My favorite fantasy is to spend a year in Biosphere 2 with the McLaughlin Group. (or, with the Capital Gang) (or, bungee-jumping into Tokyo strapped to Fritz Hollings) From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:51PM P04 -3- Tonight you were rougher than usual, but you don't frighten me, I could lick you with one handler tied behind my back. (SEC. ALEXANDER WILL HAVE SUNG COUNTRY MUSIC) I've heard Garth Brooks in concert. I've seen Garth Brooks on the cover of Time. Garth Brooks is a friend of mine. Lamar, you're no Garth Brooks. If anyone from the NEA is here, I beg you not to fund him. Lamar is the brother the Gatlins don't talk about. Actually Lamar, you were great. Knocked my tube socks off. I may be losing control of my Administration. This morning in the Situation Room, Colin Powell was singing rap. Sounded like a cross between M.C. Hammer and Rudy Vallee. That super market tabloid, the star, is working on a story about Lane Kirkland and three members of the International Ladies Garment Workers Union Lane says he was just trying to "look for the union label". I don't want to rattle Al simpson. But this morning, Nina Totenberg was in a D.C. gun shop pricing sniper scopes. From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:52PM P05 -4- Last week, Dick Cheney held a Pentagon briefing to show how he had Patriot missiles intercept and destroy his three giant checks. with the world at pcace, there isn't much work for our war correspondents. Peter Arnett (Charles Jaco) has been assigned to the Georgetown Four Seasons in case there's a flareup between Marla Maples and Donald Trump. (...assigned to the Hill in case there's a flareup between Nina Totenberg and Al Simpson) When Marla threw her gold ring at Donald, Nick Brady dove for it. With this deficit, every ounce counts. Alan Greenspan says the economy is recovering. I hope he's right. I just made a down payment on a pair of tube socks. Took a lot of ridicule for purchasing a couple pair of socks. To the press, tube socks are a joke. To Senor Wences, they're a livelihood. This speech isn't just about me. It's for the heart and soul of the Gridiron Club. Some news from Russia. Lenin isn't dead. He was just napping during a particularly long Russian Gridiron dinner. From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:52PM P06 - -5- congratulations to Hob Strauss, who was judged the wittiest speaker at this year's Russian Gridiron Bob really cracked them up doing the Charleston dressed as Nina Khrushchev. Bob Gates is considering a private news program that would be available on encrypted computer to 200 top administration officials that would offer instant analysis of news events. That in itself is not a bad idea. But Bob may be getting carried away. He wants to hire Gordon Liddy to do weather and sports. Have you seen John Sununu on "Crossfire"? Most people feel Michael Kinsley is overreacting wearing shatterproof glasses. John Sununu already alienated the brass at CNN. Last weekend he flew home to the dentist aboard a corporate jet...citing the need for secure communication with Michael Kinsley. John Sununu may run for governor of Arkansas. John said, "Not only do you fly on corporate jets, but they serve you free chicken". From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:53PM P07 6- Cosmonaut Sergei Krikalev returned to earth after ten months in orbit. what must have gone through his mind when he saw the dramatic changes in less than a year. The collapse of the Soviet Union, Gorbachev out of power, super market scanners Ten months orbiting the earth. He clocked more time in space than Jerry Brown. Pravda is bankrupt. They went belly up after David Broder (Kevin Phillips, Evans and Novak) doubled the rate to carry his column. Pravda went bankrupt. You have to feel for the Russian people. They'll no longer get to read Doonesbury. Rich Bond has been on the phone with the former Pravda staffers. As Rich said, "You can never have too many spin doctors". Lee Iacocca is stepping down. Lee has been feverishly working on a car for Chrysler executives. When the air bag activates, out pops a golden parachute. From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:53PM P08 -1- Newt Gingrich has a take-no-prisoners personality. Newt has the only locker with a pinup of Hannibal Lecter. (Or, Newt Gingrich, the House Hannibal Lecter) Art Buchwald is now suing the producers of "Basic Instinct". Art claims they used his body as stunt double during Michael Douglas's love scenes. Jesse Helms is writing a Saturday morning cartoon show for children starring Joe Camel. It may surprise you to learn Jesse Helms joined the ranks of animal rights supporters. Today outside the White House Jesse walked a mile for Joe Camel. (or, Jesse Helms has become an activist for animal rights. Jesse wants to put Joe Camel on the endangered species list.) Paul Tsongas pulled out of the race. The other candidates are relieved. It was distracting debating a man who reeked of chlorine. The person most unhappy to see Paul bow out was his unannounced running mate, Mark Spitz. Paul dropped out so he can devote more time to catching that kwazy wabbit. From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:53PM P09 - 8 - We've got to curb the violence on TV. I'm speaking of the Clinton-Brown debates. Those debates are getting heated. The next one will be produced by Don King. It's getting nasty. Bill Clinton replaced one handler with a cut man. You know it's gonna be vicious when the moderator begins the debate with, "Let's RUMBLE!" (A la Vegas fight announcer) Last week, they had to use the Jaws of Life to remove Jerry Brown's teeth from Bill Clinton's ankle. New York police have warned residents to stay indoors so they don't get injured in a drive-by political commercial. This year's political commercials have been ugly. The only thing worse would be the pictures from Yassar Arafat's wedding night. Candidates from both parties have engaged in vicious name- calling. like "corrupt", "liar", ( "hypocrite", "fascist", "draft dodger", "womanizer", "racist") "incumbent". From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:54PM P10 -9- - one candidate favors isolationism. You know the definition of an isolationist. That's a guy who showed up for a Tom Harkin victory party. They accused me of pandering to the far right...just because I proposed statehood for Rush Limbaugh. To most of us, the campaign season means countless nights in strange hotels. To (deadbeat pol or press person), it's a chance to glom tiny shampoo bottles, shoe polishing cloths, and chintzy white bathrobes. I enjoy campaigning on the road, sleeping in hotels. It's a pleasure to thumb through the Gideon Bible and know they don't carry Doonesbury. H. Ross Perot is launching a Presidential bid. Ross says he won't accept any contribution under a billion dollars. To Ross, the Kuwaiti ambassador is middle class. (KUWAITI AMBASSADOR IS AT HEAD TABLE) Rose may be out of touch with average Americans. He wants Greenpeace to declare the polo pony an endangered species. Ross's campaign slogan is, "The Krugerrand stops here". From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:54PM P11 -10- ROSS has the only penny loafers with Krugerrands. Last week he tossed a tax-free municipal bond across the Potomac. The public can't get away from the candidates. The other day in a Brooklyn K-Mart, a voice came over the speaker and said, "Attention, K-Mart shoppers. I'm Jerry Brown and my number is 800-426-1112". Spent last weekend at Camp David with Helmut Kohl. Pat Buchanan phoned the Chancellor and asked if he knew the blue book price for a used Mercedes. Pat's plan to get America moving is to set aside a diamond lane for Mercedes drivers. Pat may have made a tactical error when he gave a speech in a GM parking lot that began with, "Ich bin ein Mercedes owner". Some say Pat really has his sights set on 196 when he plans to run for Kaiser. Pat tries to identify with people who frequent McDonald's. But when Pat refers to a Big Mac, he means his fat neighbor in MoLean. From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:55PM P12 11- We're all glad Super Tuesday is behind us. For Ron Brown, Super Tuesday is any Tuesday Jerry Brown has root canal. Jerry Brown withdrew his membership from a California golf club because they exclude extra-terrestrials. Jerry Brown has proposed a tax cut for middle-class Trekkies. Democratic strategists are considering a possible Clinton- Brown ticket. That would provide a good balance. An outsider and a far-outsider. Jerry could deliver the uncommitted extra-terrestrials. Jorry feels the momentum is going his way according to his pollster, Rod Serling. Jerry Brown is crisscrossing the country aboard Winnebago One. Jerry Brown did surprisingly well in Michigan. According to the exit polle, Jerry got the vote of 95% of all crash dummies. From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:55PM P13 - -12 Jerry Brown lived two years in India, but was asked to leave. Waving that 800 card scared the snakes back into their baskets. Jerry Brown has an abrasive personality. He's the only person ever to make Mother Teresa's enemies list. Governor Brown inspired Mother Teresa to say, "Enough already with the 800 number. Pass the curry". Jerry Brown's campaign slogan is, "The Buddha stops here". This year, even the scandals have changed. In the old days, politicians worried about being caught in a motel. Now they're scared they'll be spotted inside the Beltway. This year, nobody's sacred. What will be the next revelation? Lane Kirkland wears Taiwan tails? The climate is changing on the Hill. Today a congressman got into a shouting match with a D.C. cop (meter maid). But the cop (meter maid) refused to write him a parking ticket. House members have gotten angry letters from bank robbers. You can't blame the robbers. When they get caught pulling a heist, they can't get the ticket fixed on their getaway car. From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:55PM P14 - 13- Recycling has caught on up on the Hill. At the House gym members pasted together a batch of checks and built a trampoline. This whole business is pervasive. This morning Millie fetched me a rubber slipper. There's so much rubber on the Hill some members carpool in the Goodyear Blimp. They plan to reform the system. In the future, members may be asked to walk through a rubber detector. Today the House voted that the United States convert to the rubber standard. Did you know the Swiss now keep their money in the House bank? The House post office scandal has the voters enraged. Elvis threatencd to sue if they use his stamp. What's going on up thero? At the House post office they replaced the Elvis stamp with John Gotti. Nobody wants to be associated with the mess. Today three of the "wanted" posters turned their heads to the wall. From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:56PM P15 \ -14- Their post office has a special express mail service "when you absolutely positively have to make an overnight loan to your campaign". The public is finding out about the House's perks, like free drugs. I hope that doesn't change. One thing the members don't need now is someone stopping the flow of Maalox. Why can't we go back to those innocent days when politicians just took bribes? Pundits predict this fall's contest will pit Bush versus clinton Barbara against Hillary in the Pillsbury Bakeoff. Saddam is worried the United States may hit Iraq with our secret chemical weapon the Arkansas chicken. Talk about your land mines. Secretary Cheney has assured me we have a sufficient number of F-117 Stealth fighters and nuclear subs in place as a precaution during Ted Kennedy's bachelor party. From : RAYMOND SILLER PHONE No. : 213 573 2020 Mar. 24 1992 8:56PM P16 - 15- A team of U.N. inspectors will supervise the dismantling of Ted Kennedy's little black book. The press no longer tries to hide its preference for liberal politicians. Last night there was a bachelor party for Ted Kennedy...and Sarah McLendon popped out of the cake. A jury granted a divorce to Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker on the grounds of irreconcilable eyeliner. The Colt Manufacturing Company applied for bankruptcy. The final straw was losing the contract to distribute free guns to D.C. (New York) schools. Had a little trouble in Japan with the Vomit Thing. My goal with Japan is someday to pass out on a level playing field. This isolationist mood has to stop. Dick Gephardt awarded me 3 points for barfing on a foreign head of state and an extra 5 point bonus because he was Japanese. ##### <<<<<<<< numm FACSIMILE TRANSMITTAL SHEET NUMBER OF PAGES INCLUDING COVER 2 DATE 3/27/92 TO David Demarest FAX NUMBER 456 2983 COMMENTS funny Stuff FROM Michelle * DEPARTMENT OF COMMUNICATIONS * OFFICE NUMBER 456 7750 March 27, 1992 MEMORANDUM FOR THE GRIDIRON TEAM FROM: JAG SUBJECT: INSULTS JABS AT MARLIN Marlin, you ignorant slut slim-fast breath toupee-less one \ hairless one snack-sneaking snowball man of a thousand and one inches aerobic airhead with an attitude Kansas Karma and, no, you can't have my turban GROANER COMEBACKS may you miss your deadline may your Nielsens match my polls may your third son be a Democrat may you be reincarnated as an NEA chairman may you rot on the Press Plane ENVELOPE SUGGESTIONS A: Jenny Craig and Betty Crocker.

EST SATURDAY, MARCH 28, 1992 NOTE; SONG LYRICS ATTACHED FOR QUESTIONS: CALL PENNY DIXON 202 639-5480 GRIDIRON DINNER WASHINGTON--The 107-year-old Gridiron Club of Washington newspaper men and women held its annual politically-satirical song and dance white-tie dinner Saturday night at the Capital Hilton Hotel. President and Mrs. Bush were among the administration, cabinet, congressional, judicial, military, diplomatic, gubernatorial, labor, industrial and journalistic guests in attendance at the annual dinner. President Bush is the 18th consecutive president to attend a Gridiron Dinner since Benjamin Harrison attended his first on Jan. 30, 1892. Other head table guests at the dinner included Secretary of State James A. Baker 3d, Secretary of Defense Dick Cheney, Secretary of the Treasury Nicholas F. Brady, Attorney General William Barr, Associate Supreme Court Justice Harry Blackmun, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Gen. Colin Powell and the dean of the diplomatic corps, Shaikh Saud Nasir Al-Sabh, Ambassador of Kuwait. Notable guests included CIA Director Robert Gates, GOP presidential candidate Patrick J. Buchanan and former Democratic Sen. Paul Tsongas. Gridiron President Dan Thomasson of Scripps-Howard delivered the traditional ''speech in the dark'' to the club members and their guests. He said that Dallas billionaire Ross Perot had been asked to finance the dinner "but he said he might need all his money this year. Therefore, we were forced to negotiate a grant from Japan. So, Mr. President, the dinner is on Mr. Miyazawa.' President Thomasson took note of Vice President Dan Quayle's absence from the dinner, telling the crowd he was busy at work on his golf game--``one of his handicaps. The skits lampooning the Democrats and the Republicans are the centerpiece of all Gridiron affairs. This year's show was produced by music chairman Phillip Geyelin of the Washington Post. The skit producers were Richard Cooper of the Los Angeles Times and Alan S. Emory of the Watertown Daily Times. The Democratic skit highlighted the party's dilemma in finding a presidential candidate this year, took a punch at Congress and outlined the bad year for Sen. Edward Kennedy. It compared the Democrats to the gamblers and horse players in the 1950 musical "Guys and Dolls." Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton made his case for the nomination to the tune of ''Love Me Tender'': '''m the nominee for you, Cleansed of lust and sin. Love me tender, I'll be true-- As I've always been.'' ''I've always been a patriot, This is no new leaf. Draft me for my fav'rite spot: Commander-in-Chief.' The Congress took its lumps to the melody "The House I Live In." "The House we live in is more than just a bank It's a monumental tribute to the privilege of rank. A parking space for members--no tickets and no fee. The right to be elitist--that's America to me. The place we work in is more than just a dome. It takes a heap of free-bees to make this House a home. Free travel when we're jaded, exotic sights to see. While ripping off the public--that's America to me. As for Senator Kennedy, he was featured in the "Ted Kennedy Blues. ''It's three o'clock in the morning, Time we go out for a beer. Au Bar's the place we are heading, Plenty of action down there. We'll bring us back some girlies, Just for a romp by the sea, If anything's done that is naughty-- You'll never prove it by me. The Republican skit featured the GOP take-over of Macy's department store as a demonstration of its new economic growth plan. The opener needled Richard Darman, the Bush administration's budget director, to the song 'Get Happy. `Forget your troubles and just get happy, We're gonna chase all your blues away. Sing Hallelujah, come on, get happy-- No recession we can see today. You lost your job? Well, come on, get happy. We've got a program to ease your pains. And for the poor it is really snappy'' So they can keep all their cap'tal gains. Presidential candidate Pat Buchanan was on the griddle to the tune of 'Man of La Mancha. 'Listen up, ye apostles of true isolation, The wisdom I bring from TV. I'll get rid of all Zulus and porn in our nation. Return to the right. Elect me. "I am I, Pat Buchanan, The Lord of Protection. Our borders have got to be sealed. We must march to the trumpets of Goldwater, Taft, And get everything modern repealed. The CIA was spoofed to the melody of the ``Whiffenpoof Song. ''We are poor little spies who have lost our way, C-I-A. Out of work spies who have gone astray, C-I-A. Once we fought the evil empire, Now we're only guns for hire. Yeltsin put out the Langley fire. C-I-A." The responses to the skits were delivered by Lamar Alexander, Secretary of Education, for the Republicans and by Ann Richards, Governor of Texas, for the Democrats. Four new active members--William Beecher of the Minneapolis Star and Tribune; Clark Hoyt of Knight-Ridder; Julia Malone of Cox Newspapers; and John W. Mashek of the Boston Globe were initiated into the Club at the dinner. Three new members chosen for their musical ability were also initiated. They were singers Brian Donnelly and Mike Shortal; and pianist John Legg, Master Sargent in the United States Marine Band. As always, the program concluded with the only toast of the evening--to the President of the United States. Mr. Bush responded. Music before the dinner was provided by the United States Marine Band which has been associated with the Club since the days of John Philip Sousa. The band was directed by Col. John R. Bourgeois, who also serves as director of music for the Gridiron. The Les Karr Orchestra provided music for the show. Following are the lyrics for all the songs in the show: MAKIN' WHOOPEE Another year, another cast of celebrated, men in my past. Another season, another reason For makin' whoopee. A lot of rubes, a lot of hicks Are gettin' nervous in politics It's really killing, they were so willing To make a whoopee. Picture a little love nest Down where the roses cling Picture that same sweet love nest Think what some years will bring. They got their wishes, they had their way They're so ambitious, but now they pay I won't forget boys, that's what you get boys For makin' whoopee. so MANY WAYS TO HAVE GOOD CLEAN FUN JIMMY SWAGGART: In the fight against sin and moral decay Political leaders have now shown the way You're finished with harassment, womanizers cannot run You've become colossal bores and need some fun. You need weenie roasts and treasure hunts, conundrums and charades Dominoes, monopoly and masquerades No more singing, no more dancing, no more gaiety And scandals that offend the political laity. So many ways to have good clean fun So many games to enthrall No earthly reasons why public life should be so dull. Ever so often we're overwhelmed Many temptations to shun That's why it pays to have So many ways to have Good clean fun. (ORCHESTRA REPEATS A SECOND TIME WITH ON STAGE CHOREOGRAPHY) CHORUS CHANTS IN STAGE WHISPER SOLOIST Donna Rice, Tai Collins, Gennifer Flowers, Oh boy So many ways to have good clean fun. Blue smoke, blue movies Long Dong Silver, Au Bar So many games to enthrall Pookie Pookie, Monkey Business No earthly reasons Brock Adams, Call your druggist why public life Should be so dull I love my wife but of you kid. (modulate key) We've got the guys and we've got the dolls We've spent our publishers' dough Everyone stay cause it's time for the play It's the Grid Iron Show CHORUS: Everyone stay cause it's time for the play It's the Grid Iron Show LUCK BE A LADY (Tune - Same) They call you Lady Luck, But there is room for doubt. The last twelve years you've had a discouraging way of running out. Our pickings have been slim Since Reagan came to town, And yet before November is over you might bring Poppy down. You might forget past history, Ignore what pollsters say, And so the best that we can do is pray. Luck, let the Democrats see How nice a dame you can be. Luck, you must be the one who gave us Jimmy Carter, Luck, hear our Democrat's plea. We should have nothing to fear, Bush is a patsy this year. If you don't cotton to our guys already running, Maybe a late volunteer? Our candidates aren't smooth and preppy, But with your help, one could prevail, We're better on our knees in a crapshoot like this Than out on the fairways with Quayle. So Luck, heed the Democrats' call, Not just another pratfall. Always remember we're the party of the people. Luck, be a Lady, Though odds are shady, Luck, be a lady this fall. A PERSON CAN BE OUT IN THE COLD Lady Luck & Sideliners (Tune: Adelaide's Lament) (GEPHARDT steps forward.) LUCK: A young Democratic hopeful, looking to try again, Takes special caution drafting his design, And big GOP poll numbers, fed by the hot Gulf war, Affect the amount of stiffness in his spine, In other words just from wondering whether George Bush is too hard to beat, GEP: A person can develop cold feet. (GORE steps forward.) LUCK: Though he's certainly making a name for himself back in Tennessee, And the public should note he delivered a vote to make Kuwait free, When the Solid South seems to be solid for the GOP, GORE: A person can develop cold feet. (BENTSEN steps forward.) LUCK: To get on the national ticket's a worthy and noble goal, One that he managed back in '88. Winning by acclamation, that's how he likes to go, Quite free of campaign travel or debate. In other words, just from worrying over the primary combat heat, BENTSEN: A Texan can develop cold feet. (CUOMO steps forward.) LUCK: Though a spell-binding speaker can give you exciting convention scenes, He may spend all the primaries up there in Albany counting beans, When the party is looking for some kind of hero who's not from Queens, CUOMO: A Cuomo can develop cold feet. LUCK: In other words, just from stalling and stalling the question of getting bold, A person can be out in the cold. So it looks as though they will be shelving their presidential hopes, And patrolling political sidelines like a bunch of dopes, A PERSON CAN BE OUT IN THE COLD page 2 But who could predict that George Bush would be up against the ropes? Contenders can be out in the cold. It's sad, it's bad, they've really been had. Unfinanced and unpolled, cause they all missed a shot at the gold. From a lack of sufficient vision and a feeling they're all getting old. ALL: Contenders can be out in a four-year cold. FUGUE FOR GREENHORNS Ron Brown & Democratic Promoters (Tune - Fugue for Tinhorns) CHORUS: Can do, can do We'll clean up in '92 With this super-stellar crew Can do, can do. BROWN: Our Democrats are great. Would like to sweep the states, Hey, what a choice selection of candidates. PRO-1: Tom Harkin had the force To be a real warhorse But not enough folks liked it when he talked coarse. PRO-2: Bob Kerrey's campaign boom Just never reached full bloom So now he can't move Debra to the Lincoln Room. PRO-3: Let's go for Jerry Brown, The only guy in town Who's firmly pledged to burning the White House down. PRO-4: Bill Clinton's set to scrap, He talks that Southern yap And he's a cinch to broaden the gender gap. PRO-5: Paul Tsongas' cool technique Has just begun to peak, And what the party needs is another Greek. PROS: Party kings Sexy things Ding-a-lings CHORUS: We've got the guys right here. NO MORE DOLLS (Tune - Guys and Dolls) FIRST NEWSY: What's in the Daily News? I'll tell you what's in the Daily News: Story 'bout a politician who has trouble telling whose wife is whose. That's what's in the Daily News. SECOND NEWSY: What's big on TV? I'll tell you what's big on TV: Piece employee. about a boss who made lewd suggestions to a lovely That's what's big on TV. THIRD NEWSY: What news perserveres? I'll tell you what news perserveres: Saga of a husband so loyal that his girl-friend waited for eleven years. That's what perserveres. SOLOIST: Looks like sex is popular as racial quotas. They're the kind of thing that doesn't please the voters. Though a pol is mean, ignorant and unclean, It's OK if he never toyed with some doll. Candidates can win the electorate's trust If they promise--they must--from puberty on, Abandon all lust. The most awesome hunk has to live like a monk, If he longs for that motorcade down the Mall. Though he's rude, crude and awful And his platform might be unlawful, Long as he isn't making it with some doll, Some doll, some doll. The guy can't be making it with some doll. ALL THREE NEWSYS: Long as he isn't making it with some doll, Some doll, some doll. The guy can't be making it with some doll. THE OLDEST ESTABLISHED (Tune - same) We don't care if the laws get complex Long as our bank's not bouncing checks. We can dine a la carte all we want On the tab at the House restaurant. While Mitchell and Foley act like good scouts And the Ethics Committees rarely report, And things bein' how they are, we can drop by the Post Office for a snort. We're immune to both anger and praise, Once an incumbent's in, there he stays. For it's good old reliable Congress, On the Senate side and the House. If you're looking for action, don't come to the Hill Cause anything that Bush is for we're looking to kill. In the good old reliable Congress Where the budgets only expand, It's the oldest established permanent floating con game in the land. There are well-heeled lobbies everywhere, everywhere, Lots of well-heeled lobbies everywhere, And there. an awful lot of PAC dough for the candidates who lack dough All those corp'rate contributions really help keep the competition fair. That's our good old reliable Congress Where harassment's always in style. Ev'ry member need not be too clever by half, All the bills and speeches can be written by staff. In those hideaways furnished by Congress Where the slick maneuvers are planned, It's the oldest established permanent floating con game in the land. Spend the money, dodge the blame, You can play the game if you've got no shame, It's the oldest established permanent floating con game in the land. CONGRESS CORRUPTKE ("Gee, Officer Krupke") BIDEN: Dearrrrr kind-ly Clar-ence Thom-as And dear Pro-fess-or Hill, We don't want to har-ass you We on-ly want our fill. We tried to keep it se-cret But you know how that works -- Now on T-V, we all look like jerks. Please, par-don our pry-ing when deal-ing with sex. There's no smok-ing gun here, so why don't-cha just confess. ALL SENATORS: We don't want a lynch-ing -- We're not so un-couth -- We simp-ly hung-er for the truth. BIDEN: We want truth! We want truth! We want just plain truth! What we hunger for is just the truth. BIDEN: Dearrrrr kind-ly Ms. An-i-ta, We're sorry for the leak. We don't like to repeata The charges that you speak. But Spec-ter here is eag-er And Strom's all a-quiv-ver To hear you views on Mis-ter bleep-bleep Sil-ver. Paul Si-mon is blush-ing, and Metz-en-baum's blue. They don't like this cir-cus one bit more than you do. DEMOCRATIC SENATORS: This is strict-ly biz-ness, Not real-ly a joke. Please, tell the part about the Coke. BIDEN: Yes the Coke. CHORUS AND SENATORS: Yes, the Coke! Yes, the Coke! Yes the tell-tale Coke. And remember, please, this is no joke! REPUBLICAN: The problem is she's dreaming. DEMOCRAT: The problem is he's crude. REPUBLICAN: The problem is she's scheming. DEMOCRAT: The problem is he's lewd. CONGRESS CORRUPTKE page two REPUBLICAN: The problem is still growing. DEMOCRAT: The problem is full grown. ALL: Fel-las, we've got problems of our own. ALL: Dear TV view-ers, we're down on our knees, 'Couse no one likes a Cong-ress that wallows in sleaze. The vot-ers they tell us, that we are all wet. We on-ly hope that you for-get! HEALTH CARE SONG (Tune: ""The Witch Doctor'') We need a health care plan to win in ninety-two To cover working folks and jobless people too I asked the Witch Doctor to tell us what to do And he said: Oooh, eee, oooh ah ah Ting, tang walla walla bing bang Oooh, eee, oooh ah ah Ting tang walla walla bing bang We need to hold down costs and get the care to you We need to find the cash but taxes just won't do I asked the Witch Doctor to give us just a clue And he said: Oooh, eee, oooh ah ah Ting, tang, walla walla bing bang Oooh, eee, oooh ah ah Ting tang walla walla bing bang We've been playing fast and loose with our domestic trouble. And some have said we've not been very smart, But this new plan is slick enough to rise above the rubble. It's guaranteed to win the voter's heart. This health care strategy is catchy and it's great If we sing loud enough with voters we will rate Maybe the Witch Doctor should be our candidate Let's hear it: Oooh eee oooh ah ah Ting tang walla walla bing bang Oooh, eee, oooh ah ah Ting, tang walla walla bing bang Oooh eee oooh ah ah Ting tang walla walla bing bang Oooh, eee, oooh ah ah Ting, tang walla walla bing bang record. Song for a Democratic Congressman who declined to speak on the (The House I Live In) (SOLO) What is America to me --safe seat, good pay and perks for free, Political plutocracy -- that's American to me. The House we live in is more than just a bank It's a monumental tribute to the privilege of rank. A parking space for members -- no tickets do WE see. The right to be elitist -- that's America to me. The place we work in is more than just a dome. It takes a heap of free-bees to make this House a home. Free travel when we're jaded, exotic sights to see. while ripping off the public -- that's America to me. Assistants all around us, to tell us what to think, And cozy little hide-outs where we can sneak a drink. Free parking at the airport, free pills for every ill. our very own gymnasium, our postage costs are nil. The cut-rate hair-cuts, the luncheons on the cuff; We fatten up our pay check when we think it's not enough. We celebrate the virtue of in-equality. It's neat to be elitist -- that's America to me! (CHORUS REPEAT) We celebrate the virtue of in-equality! It's neat to be elitiest -- that's America to me. * * TED KENNEDY BLUES (It's Three O'Clock in the Morning) Ted Kennedy: It's three o'clock in the morning, Time we go out for a beer. Au Bar's the place we are heading, Plenty of action down there. We'll bring us back some girlies, Just for a romp by the sea. If anything's done that is naughty You'll never prove it by me. CHORUS: If anything's done that is naughty Soloist: You'll never prove it by me. Soloist dons cutaway coat and begins to sing "GET ME TO THE CHURCH ON TIME" KENNEDY I'm getting married in the morning, Ding dong the bells are gonna chime, A resurrection, before my election, So get me to the church on time. If I am dancing, roll up the floor, I gotta face my voters in ninety-four. Hey, I'm getting married in the morning. Too bad, when I've just reached my prime. Kick up a rumpus, but don't lose the compass, And get me to the church, get me to the church, For Pete's sake, get me to the church on time. "NEVER ON TUESDAY" TSONGAS: I wear my Speedo trunks on Wednesday and Sunday and Monday -- That's when I reach my peak. But then along will come a Tuesday, a Tuesday, a Tuesday -- It messes up my week. I was no Santa Claus on Thursday or Friday or Sunday -- So I kept flying high. But when the polls would close on Tuesdays, black Tuesdays, the voters Would leave me high and dry "YOU AIN'T NOTHIN' BUT A HOUND DOG" BILL CLINTON (to press dog): You ain't nothin' but a houndog, snooping all the time. You ain't nothin' but a houndog, snooping all the time. But you never caught me running, with some cash-for-trash feline. "LOVE ME TENDER" CLINTON: Love me tender, Democrats, I'm your mod'rate star. Next to me Bush looks ersatz, Quayle is over par. I'm the nominee for you, Cleansed of lust, and sin. Love Me Tender, I'll be true-- As I've always been. I've always been a patriot. This is no new leaf. Draft me for my fav'rite spot: Commander-in-chief. I survived the spring combats, Selling southern soap. Love Me Tender, Democrats, I'm your ONLY hope. THE GIRL THAT I MARRY Democratic Speaker's Song ANN RICHARDS: I shyly suggest that our nominee Could take a few lessons from little me. To him I would explain How to run a nice friendly but macho campaign. When old Clatey hit me with all those smears, I did things to him that we do to steers; He was kneelin, he was squealin. And I have to admit I've been feelin' I'm tall in the saddle for nationwide battle this year. So let's take a look at our candidates. They're not what you'd describe as heavy-weights. We need someone with class And a silver foot to kick Republican ---- ("Bleep.") Of course you know I'd never use that word, A more genteel phrase is to be preferred. We want winners, not beginners, And what we do not need is male sinners. I'm female and foxy, and I've got the moxie -- choose me. REPUBLICAN OPENER Richard Darman Song GET HAPPY SOLOIST: Forget your troubles and just get happy. We're gonna chase all your blues away. Sing Hallelujah, come on, get happy-- No recession we can see today. You lost your job? Well, come on, get happy. We've got a program to ease your pains. And for the poor it is really snappy-- So they can keep all their cap'tal gains. Trust us, we are caring, and you know we really tried. Trough times we're sharing, Blame the other side. Can't get a mortgage? Come on, get happy. A little hunger can be okay. No real depression. That makes us happy-- At least until Election Day. DANCE CHORUS: Just trust us, we're caring, and we really, really tried. Look how we're faring. Blame the other side. Can't get a mortgage? At least, get happy, And you can share in the games we play. The banks are folding, but still we're happy-- At least until Election Day. CIA SONG Whiffenpoof Song SOLOIST: To the old McLean headquarters, To the place where Casey dwelled, To the covert actions that we planned so well. We are former spooks assembled, With no one on whom to spy, And the K-G-B's our buddy, sad to tell. SPIES: Yes, the K-G-B's our buddy, SOLOIST: More so than the F-B-I, And we're having trouble fooling Cap'tol Hill. Oh, we long for ol' Bill Casey, May his ghost inspire us now, Gates just lacks the shady tricks to fill the bill. SPIES: We are poor little spies who have lost our way, C - I - A. Out-of-work spies who have gone astray, c - I - A. SOLOIST: Once we fought the evil empire, Now we're only guns for hire. Yeltsin put out the Langley fire. ALL: C - I - A.

CHORUS: With laundered swag we'll bag that Baghdad beast. The Willy Horton of the Mid-dle Ee-east. CAR SONG The Surrey With the Fringe on Top SOLOIST: Get the Ginza cleared in a hurry. Here comes an Amelican surrey, Left-hand drive Amelican surrey Heading for the shop. Watch the driver, see how he shudders Ev-ry time that big clunker sputters, And don't liss-en to what he mutters When it starts to stop. The wheels are wobbly, the upholst'ry's brown, The dashboard's make-believe leather, With power steering windows that won't roll down In case there's a change in the weather. One faint tail light winkin' and blinkin'. Gallons of gas'line guzzlin' and drinkin'. They can keep that rig if they're thinkin' That they'd like to swap For my zippy little Honda with the TARIFF on the top. CHORUS: (Repeat) OLIVER STONE SONG It Ain't Necessarily So Stone (Ryan) and cameraman (Smith) enter from stage right RYAN: It ain't necessarily flu. It ain't necessarily flu. I have a suspicion that what his physician Said ain't necessarily true. My movie will prove something's wrong, 'Cause C-I-A spooks were along. They poisoned his sushi--or else it was mooshi Pork they fed him back in Hong Kong. SMITH: Wa dee CHORUS: Wa dee SMITH: Zim bam boddle-ee CHORUS: Zim bam boddle-ee SMITH: Hoodle ah da wa dee CHORUS: Hoodle ah da wa dee SMITH: Conspiracy CHORUS: Conspiracy ALL: Yeah. RYAN: Just take it from Oliver Stone: There's something that is still unknown. Reverse peristalsis not often befalls us, So was that chef working alone? I'll tell a great story, blood-curdling and gory And I'll make up the plot Mix facts up with fiction, and without restriction-- That's how my films are shot. I'm sounding a warning today, Just as I did in "J-F-K." A new barf commission, o'er my opposition, Will secretly flush it away. I'm making this movie to prove CHORUS & RYAN: It ain't necessa, ain't necessa, ain't necessa, Ain't necessarily flu. SLEAZE (Kids) TABLOIDS: Sleaze, we provide just what readers want today. Sleaze, whether in the Senate or in the hay. Print any kind of rumor, legend, lie or myth. We hit stuffed shirts, bigwigs, perverts, preachers, Any kind of target. Sleaze, sodomy and rape are our stock in trade. Sleaze, it's the steamy stuff of which profit's made. Keeping our circulation healthy in evry way. What's the matter with sleaze today. ESTABLISHMENT PRESS: Please, we're too pure to cover such sordid stuff. Please, in the high class press there's not space enough. Sleaze makes our readers queasy when they get the point. Goodness gracious, no salacious copy Ever mars our columns. But -- there is one exception to standard bland, Sleaze can be quite all right if it's second-hand. Bless the Star and Inquirer, though we pretend they're worst, Just as long as they print sleaze first. CHORUS: Bless the Star and Inquirer, though we pretend they're worst, Just as long as they print sleaze first. MARILYN QUAYLE SONG Wabash Cannonball Soloist enters from stage right. QUAYLE: I give Dan his orders And this is not a boast. But we didn't pay a penny for That series in The Post. I'm planning campaign strategy So he'll survive this fall. My bouncing boy conservative Wabash basketball. Dan loosens rules in secret to please our fat cat friends 'Cause open competition Won't pay big dividends. Though some call him a lightweight; I think it's a close call. I won't let anyone slam-dunk My Wabash Basketball. Jim Baker tried to run our show 'Way back in eighty-eight. But Baker didn't understand I was the running mate. And if he tries to take Dan on Four years from this Fall He'll also have to take me on The Wabash Cannonball. CHORUS: It's time to think survival, So she'll campaign this fall She'll save Dan from himself 'cause SHE's (pause) The Wabash Cannonball. BUCHANAN SONG Man of La Mancha SOLOIST: Hear me, all you ridiculous fans of George Bush, Bamboozled and dumb as can be: A new hero is here, and I'm ready to push For return to the last century. I am I, Pat Buchanan, Soft-spoken and tender, And how I love our fellow man! Put the homeless in jail as a sign of affection America first is our plan. Listen up, ye apostles of true isolation, To wisdom I bring from TV. I'll get rid of all Zulus and porn in our nation. Return to the Right. Elect me. I am I, Pat Buchanan, The Lord of Protection. Our borders have got to be sealed. We must march to the trumpets of Goldwater, Taft, And get everything modern repealed. I know that I've seen the light. CHORUS: It's like fifty-four forty or fight. BUSH CAMPAIGN Where is the Life that Late I Led REAGAN: Since I reached political maturity, And began to see the conservative light, Like a priest who takes a VOW of purity, I cannot abide defection from the Right. And now that the keeper of the flame am I, How stricken by the squalor and the shame am I. Where is the Right that late I led? Where's my crusade? Totally dead! Where is the Bush that I spoon-fed? Where is his head? Why has he fled? Oh, he pulled in -- for one pit-stop. But praising an heir who isn't all there Was not worth a photo-op. DUET: So we reminded George and Bar: WHO do you think got YOU this far? REAGAN: NOT John Sununu -- and not YOUR voodoo! Hey, doodoo. I would-a bet-cha that would get-cha in deep Apologizing? 'Bout things like taxes? Now didn't I teach-ya saying you're sorry is mal-practice. Your new world order -- that's left-wing folly! Somebody gets tough -- you get-cha a rough-neck nut like Olly. Oh, how could you be so spooked by Pat's bluff? Why don't you just thank him and outflank him with the RIGHT stuff? Where is the Bush that ONCE I knew -- Reading MY lips, Loyal and true! If you don't want my Holy Grail, I'll take it back -- Give it to Quayle. I should-a picked some Teflon guy, Instead of an heir whose cupboard is bare And can't even figure why. Where is the Reagan legacy? Where is the rest -- the best -- of me? CHORUS: Where is the Bush that I spoon-fed? REAGAN: Where is the Right that la-a-a-a-ate I led? TEACH ME TONIGHT (Bart Simpson to Alexander) Guess you think I've got a lot to learn, Got some minutes on the clock to burn, Money's something I am hot to earn, Teach me tonight. Starting with the S-A-Ts of it, Right down to the J-O-Bs of it, We're behind the Jap-a-nese a bit. Teach me tonight. My life's a blackboard here before me, With the best years yet to be spent With luck, some day I'll grow up to be The ed-u-ca-tion pres-i-dent. If us students aren't reached, La-mar Then our teachers haven't teached, La-mar On the shore of life we're beached, La-mar, Teach me tonight. Desert Storm was swell to see, La-mar Cut school to watch it on T-V, La-mar We've got bombs smarter than me, La-mar Teach me tonight. We've got bombs smarter than me, Lamar! Teach me tonight! 2 STARDUST Verse (Solo 1) And now the purple blush of beajoulais Steals across the meadows of our minds (Solo 2) We are slightly fried, tomorrow we pay Right now, we hope we can stand for-Auld Lang Syne (Solo 3) The Secret Service, standing watch are they Ready with the raincoats when he speaks (Solo 4) But before the presidential entre We want to share our latest leaks (Carl Rowan) Sometimes we wonder how you sit through these long nights Wishing they would end Our Gridiron show wanders to and fro And hits the truth a time or two Every now and then We might have an inspiration Lord, that was hours ago and now our consolation Is that you've stayed awake this long. And here inside this hall the Gridiron glows You await the dawn (Bird song in orchestra) A nightingale sings as we impale (Scream backstage) Another victim of our show We may sing in vain But we hope you will retain Some Gridiron melodies That beckon you to come again CHORUS REPEAT FROM BRIDGE And here inside this hall the Gridiron glows You await the dawn (Rooster crow) A nightingale sings as we impale (Scream backstage) Another victim of our show We may sing in vain But we hope you will retain Some Gridiron melodies That beckon you to come again 1885 1992 The Gridiron Club OF WASHINGTON, D.C.
