Assuming that you have internet access and that nothing else is
seriously broken (like perl), you can wget the .deb and install with dpkg -i

wget
http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/a/apt/apt_0.7.20.2+lenny2_i386.deb

Then dpkg -i apt_0.7.20.2+lenny2_i386.deb

The first thing I usually do on my Debian and Ubuntu boxes is install
aptitude if it is not already there.  Aptitude is a drop in replacement
for apt-get btw.

It should go without saying that the files ystem needs to be writable.

Hth,
