The Post 9/11 Blues

歌詞

What can I do? I got the post 9-11 blues On the telly nothing but the post 9-11 news War, Iraq, suicide bombs Stop hogging the limelight and make some room for my songs!! Anyway its all re-runs - We need a new war Bush! Go get Iran, I heard they're talking bout your mum! Change the channel; watch some telly for kids, but what's this?? Hi kids welcome to fun fun fun fundamentalists [kids show theme style] In the breaks, Nikes advertising bomb-proof-kicks They even showing Bin Laden's cave on Cribs!! So I picked up a respectable magazine It told me bout the new post 9-11 categories - Israeli fighters are soldiers, Irish are paramilitary - And darkie ones are terrorists - how simple can it be? But not me, my friends go "Riz is still one of us" But if I haven't shaved - they won't sit with me on the bus Everybody do the post 9-11 dance Look scared and shake ya arse while the bombs go blast Everybody shake your post 9-11 thong So the dossier was wrong Jack some oil, drop a bomb Sing a song, sing a long Bush and Blair in a tree K-I-L-L-I-N-G Shave your beard if you're brown and you best salute the crown Or they'll do you like Brazilians and shoot your arse down Post 9-11 getting around can be expensive Cost 12 dead Iraqis for a litre of unleaded And even Green Cross Codes all changed They just teach kids to duck around low flying planes On the tube if you see a dude with a rucksack, And a beard, move carriages mate - fuck that! They cancelled Christmas cuz of Santa Claus' beard and his magic Red sac got confiscated as a suspect package No need for Halloween 9-11's more scary Osama Bin Goblin eats kids and he's hairy Hear a knockin' at the door at early dawn in the dark? It's MI6 they'll trick or treat you to a week in belmarsh Forget Guy Fawkes he's lame Gun powder plots don't really compare to planes So no bonfire Halloween or Christmas, they're done Well do it all on one day merry 9-1-1 Everybody do the post 9-11 dance Look scared and shake ya arse while the bombs go blast Everybody shake your post 9-11 thong So the dossier was wrong Jack some oil, drop a bomb Sing a song, sing a long Bush and Blair in a tree K-I-L-L-I-N-G Shave your beard if you're brown and you best salute the crown Or they'll do you like Brazilians and shoot your arse down Post 9-11 policy might seem harsh But it's the terrorists fault we got ID cards And a congestion charge That they're extending far And electronic tags on the chav children's arms Course we need belmarsh, fuck 28 days We should put the whole of Oldham in its own fuckin cage Move Hounslow underground so nothing could go wrong Luton's already moving, Bradford's already gone We're all suspects so literally, be watching your back I farted and got arrested for a chemical attack Dropped some litter on the street and I caused a bomb scare But told police my name was John, they thought they caught the wrong brae But it's ok Post 9-11 I been getting paid Playing terrorists on telly getting songs made But will it get airplay geeza If BBC don't want it, I'll send it to Al Jazeera Everybody do the post 9-11 dance Look scared and shake ya arse while the bombs go blast Everybody shake your post 9-11 thong So the dossier was wrong Jack some oil, drop a bomb Sing a song, sing a long Bush and Blair in a tree K-I-L-L-I-N-G Shave your beard if you're brown and you best salute the crown Or they'll do you like Brazilians and shoot your arse down
