I hear the nukes a comin'
I hear the nukes a comin',
They're fallin' on Iran,
And they been launched by Dub-yah,
Just be-cause he can,
I’m stuck in Gitmo Prison,
And I ain’t gettin’ out,
But that bastard keeps a-talkin’
Just like he has no doubt.
When I was first ar-rested,
The FBI said “Boy,
You’ gonna be here long time,
‘Til there ain’t no oil,”
‘Cause I bought a book called Kor-an,
And read it on a bus,
When I think about my choice then,
I just don’t get the fuss.
I bet there’s rich folks beatin’,
The neo-cons war drum,
They ain’t payin’ taxes,
And callin’ us folks dumb,
But I know I had it comin‘,
Because I voted red,
Now those people own the White House,
And soon we’ll all be dead.
Well, if I was a free man,
If I could tell the world,
I’d say “Ev’rybody listen now,
And boil the man in oil,”
He made a war for profit,
Over in Iraq,
He stuck us in the Green Zone,
And stabbed us in the back.
With apologies to Johnny Cash.
