IMPEACHMENT PROCEEDING Lyrics
CLERK:
The next business before the Senate is the resolution
on the impeachment of the President.
[A FANFARE OF TRUMPETS. TWO PAGES ENTER]
TWO PAGES:
The President of the United States!
THROTTLE:
Who?
CLERK:
The President of the United States!
THROTTLE:
Oh, Mr. President, won't you sit down while we kick you out?
FULTON, LIPPMAN, GILHOOLEY, AND LYONS:
Whereas:
LYONS:
At a meeting of the Senate at which a quorum was present
a motion was made and it was proposed that-
FULTON, LIPPMAN AND GILHOOLEY:
Whereas:
LYONS:
John P. Wintergreen has undertaken to marry
the winner of a beauty contest held in Atlantic City-
FULTON, LIPPMAN AND GILHOOLEY:
Whereas:
LYONS:
His refusal to marry the winner Diana Devereaux
will lead to international complications-
FULTON, LIPPMAN AND GILHOOLEY:
Whereas:
FULTON, LIPPMAN AND GILHOOLEY:
Now therefore be it resolved that John P. Wintergreen be,
and hereby is, impeached from the said office of President
of these United States.
SENATOR JONES:
I second the resolution.
FULTON:
Our first witness-the French Ambassador!
