36. Here's a consolation prize
Thu Jul 26, 2018, 01:03 PM
Jul 2018

One of the first parodies I did, just after Cheneybush went into Afghanstan around 2002:
A.)
Hello Mullah, Hello Faddah
Here I am at Camp Osama
Camp is very interesting
When they don’t use us for bio-weapons testing

B.)
We’ve got Arabs and Iranis
And a bunch of Pakistanis
And I guess that I should warn ya
There’s a nut case who thinks he’s from California

B.)
Mullah Omar said keep fighting
Go down kicking
Go down biting
And Osama gave his order
From his helicopter fleeing ‘cross the border

C.) (break)
Take me home, oh Mullah, Faddah
Take me home, I hate Osama
Don’t leave me up in the mountains where
I might get frozen during prayer

Take me home, I promise I will
Not chase girls
Or iron my beard free of curls
Oh, please take me with you
I’ve been here since age two

A.)
Pious Faddah, burqa’d Muddah
Have you ever seen each uddah?
Don’t let Western sin seduce you
If I come home, I would gladly introduce you

B.)
Wait a minute
Bombs stopped falling
Sun is shining, birds are calling
Switched allegiance, gee that’s bettah
Mullah, Faddah kindly disregard this lettah!
