A nice little song...

Before you read this please understand that In know not everyone agrees on some of the accusations levelled in this song. It'd be a pretty boring forum if they did! But anyway, just so you know that this isn't aimed at anyone - I just found it amusing and apt personally and thought others might also do so.

Sung to the tune of 'If you're happy and you know it...'

If you cannot find Osama, bomb Iraq.
If the markets are a drama, bomb Iraq.
If the terrorists are frisky,
Pakistan is looking shifty,
North Korea is too risky,
Bomb Iraq.

If we have no allies with us, bomb Iraq.
If we think that someone's dissed us, bomb Iraq.
So to hell with the inspections,
Let's look tough for the elections,
Close your mind and take directions,
Bomb Iraq.

It's pre-emptive non-aggression, bomb Iraq.
To prevent this mass destruction, bomb Iraq.
They've got weapons we can't see,
And that's all the proof we need,
If they're not there, they must be,
Bomb Iraq.

If you never were elected, bomb Iraq.
If your mood is quite dejected, bomb Iraq.
If you think Saddam's gone mad,
With the weapons that he had,
And he tried to kill your dad,
Bomb Iraq.

If corporate fraud is growin', bomb Iraq.
If your ties to it are showin', bomb Iraq.
If your politics are sleazy,
And hiding that ain't easy,
And your manhood's getting queasy,
Bomb Iraq.

Fall in line and follow orders, bomb Iraq.
For our might knows not our borders, bomb Iraq.
Disagree? We'll call it treason,
Let's make war not love this season,
Even if we have no reason,
Bomb Iraq.

It's cute, so no big deal. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I have to wonder though, if someone from the pro-war side of the debate posted a frivalous ditty about bombing Iraq, wouldn't people come out of the wood work to complain about the insensitivity of it?

Point taken Ronn, but when the "Jihad Joe" doll was posted a while back and I objected I was told to "lighten up" about the whole thing. And we had the "I'm with stupid" banner, which I thought was really funny (despite the fact I usually am that guy...), so I thought this song couldn't hurt much. Plus it rymhes!!! Yay!

fun song, heh.

I'd love to see a pro-war song Ronn, just make sure it is as funny [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Ronn_Bman · 01-28-2003, 05:10 PM

LOL @ Barry! No it doesn't hurt at all, and it rhymes quite well. [img]smile.gif[/img]

I'll be on the look out Rokenn, but I doubt I'll find anything good. I'm the guy who finds his funny stuff here at IW to share with my friends. [img]smile.gif[/img]
