Talkin’ Al Kida Blues
It was a beautiful day in New York town
Folks jogging, biking, walking 'round
When a couple of airplanes came around
Hit the big towers, knocked 'em down
Worst disaster on US soil ever!
'Course, there's the Indians...
A few million slaves...
Enron...
But anyway, it was worse than Pearl Harbor
President W. was flying around
Far away from New York town
When finally he came on TV
He said "Why do they hate us? -- 'cause we're free."
Free to round up dark-skinned bearded guys...
Free to detain anyone who might have ties to Osama...
Al Qaida...
Somewhere in Cleveland there's some guy named Al Kida
K - I - D - A...
He's freaking out
Congress quickly rang the bell
And tried to fight those terrorist cells
With laws designed to never let
This country fall to a terrorist threat
Anyone who knows anyone who knows anyone
Who knows anyone who knows anyone who knows anyone
Who might knows a terrorist
Is a terrorist
There's terrorists using your email name
Sitting next to you at the ballgame
Terrorists hiding in your bed
Terrorists borrowing your head
Never seen so many terrorists
I had to turn in my own Mom
You know what they say
Unpaid parking tickets aids terrorists
There's laws for this and laws for that
To keep those terrorists under wraps
Some folks disagree with these
And talk of civil liberties
But it's like the Attorney General says
If in times like this you can talk about individual freedom
You're probably a terrorist
If you're planning air travel soon
You might want to think about a weather balloon
Nothing gets past those X-Ray peekers
And don't carry nothing in your sneakers
Sorry for all the delays
If you want to get there so dang fast you oughta take the train
"I have never been so insulted"
"Shut up, Dale."
Well India and Pakistan
Are thinking of trading nuclear bombs
Israel and the PLO
Suicide's the way to go
Meanwhile the lessons of 9-1-1 are clear
Let's blow up the Middle East
Smoking marijuana aids terrorists
Cuba's our enemy unless we need a prison camp
John Walker Lindh could be your kid unless we get an economic stimulus package
And let's get that guy in Cleveland - AL KIDA!
