Golly Ollie lyrics

When the hearings started it seemed
like an intrusion
My wife couldn't stand missing "One Life to Live"
The kids came home from school and asked
"Dad, what's collusion?"
It was sad cause I had no answer to give

We started watching the hearings together
I'd stay home from work in the afternoons
It started the family talking together
Afterwards we'd relax by watching cartoons

We talked about issues
Patriotism and morals
It helped us rise above our own petty
squabbles and quarrels
You did your dirty job and you did it all the way
Now my family's back together
and I've got one thing to say
(Thanks, Ollie)

Golly, Ollie
Look what you've done for my family
Golly, Ollie
A brand new form of democracy

My wife thinks he's cool under pressure,
sexy, smooth and intelligent
Tommy calls him Booger Brain
Sister says "James Bond move over"
I think there's just too many things he can't explain
But at least the kids are asking good questions
Like "What's the difference between right and wrong?"
I tell them that I still don't know
But isn't it great that we are getting along
Thanks Ollie

Golly, Ollie
Look what you've done for my family
You may not be telling the truth
I guess we'll never know,
You've shredded the proof
