SEND IN MACLEOD
or: JOE'S RAGTIME LAMENT

by Dannell Lites

Tune: "Send The Marines!" by Tom Lehrer

When Immortals make a move
Of which I don't approve
Who is it that always intervenes?
Methos and Richie - yes
They have their place I guess
But first - Send in MacLeod!!

I'll send them all I've got
Oh, Watchers by the lot
Remember swordfighting scenes so proud
He kills Immies without flaw
But not my brother-in-law!
So what do I do? I send in MacLeod!

For might makes right
'Til Immies see the light
Immortals kill and maime
Watchers scheme and blame
'Til somebody we like can win The Game!

When I need someone whacked
Because somehow they lack
The special things we look for in The One
Call it manipulation
Rather, it's contemplation
Watchers want the world to know
That we support the status quo
Immies they all love us so
What do I do? I send in MacLeod!
