#1 I wrote this last May, but here it is again:

"Mad"
As sung by Bad Bob Mugabe
To the tune of "Bad" by Michael Jackson

Your dough is mine, yeah that is right.
'Cause I'm the man who has the might
I'll try to save economy
By printing out some more money.
'Cause I, run Zimbabwe, give it to me, all right!

My nabaddest tyrant 'neath the sun
If one of my cronies you are
Then in this life, you will go far.

Don't try me to limit
Or the boneyard you will see
When I get those luckily rare
Moments of clarity

I know I'm mad! I'm mad! And I ruin Zimbabwe
I know I'm mad! I'm mad! And I ruin Zimbabwe
I know I'm mad! I'm mad! And I ruin Zimbabwe
And I'll make my econ policies and I'll go and show the world
Who's mad!

From Libya I'll get our needs
The people's land pays for the deeds.
I'll use my policies racist
To tightly clench my iron fist
Anyone who dares to cross me
Lands in a cemetery
Don't try me to limit
Or the boneyard you will see
When I get those luckily rare
Moments of clarity

I know I'm mad! I'm mad! And I ruin Zimbabwe
I know I'm mad! I'm mad! And I ruin Zimbabwe
I know I'm mad! I'm mad! And I ruin Zimbabwe
And inflation's at an alarming rate; let me tell you one again
Who's mad!

I try to save my own 2@#
So why'm I in disgrace!?
Why have I in the global
Village lost much face!?

Because I'm mad! I'm mad! And I ruin Zimbabwe
Because I'm mad! I'm mad! And I ruin Zimbabwe
Because I'm mad! I'm mad! And I ruin Zimbabwe
And the whole world knows that I'm insane; with my actions I tell them
Who's mad!

#3 ooo.. slapped down Moyo..
Last time I was paying attention, I got the impression that Moyo was the sharpest of the gang, or at least the best speaker. He'll probably take it laying down, but he might not.
