This tab is not actually on UG, so I thought someone should do it, 
and why not me!

I recommend you to hear the song a few times through before 
you play this for correct timings etc.

Standard tuning, although you may want to drop d the strings 
(e becomes d, a becomes g...)

LYRICS:

Intro:
Last call for alcohol. 
Last call for your freedom of speech. 
Drink up. Happy hour is now enforced by law. 
Don't forget our house special, 
it's called a Trickie Dickie Screwdriver. 
It's got one part Jack Daniels, 
two parts purple Kool—Aid, 
and a jigger of formaldehyde 
from the jar with Hitler's brain in it 
we got in the back storeroom. 
Happy trails to you. Happy trails to you. 

1st verse:

I am Emperor Ronald Reagan
Born again with fascist cravings
Still, you made me president 
Human rights will soon go 'way
I am now your Shah today
Now I command all of you
Now you're going to pray in school
I'll make sure they're Christian too
