The Lyrics
I wrote this after Sheryl Crowe protested the war at the Grammys with her guitar strap even though the artists were asked not to...
Shoot Up Saddam
Our friend the dictator
Kills people in his country
Too bad the UN sucks
So I'm stuck here wishing them free
I'm not political
I don't know much at all
It's not fighting just to fight
It's fighting for what's right
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Let's just drop an A-bomb
To light him up
We've gotta tell 'em that
He's got no one to blame
When time runs out on his game
He's blowing up
I wanna shoot up Saddam
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Saddam's got weapons now
But we don't see enough
For the entire left
To want to treat him tough
Every time I turn around
You're bashing Bush, it makes me frown
Maybe something's wrong with you
That makes you act the way you do
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Let's just drop an A-bomb
To light him up
We've gotta tell 'em that
He's got no one to blame
When time runs out on his game
He's blowing up
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Set Iraqis free
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Before they're dead as can be
I'll stand firm for the war
But I feel your sympathy
You have a noble heart, but lately
I'm the one with sanity
Every time I turn around
You're bashing Bush, it makes me frown
Maybe something's wrong with you
That makes you act the way you do
I think you're a crazy fool
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Let's just drop an A-bomb
To light him up
We've gotta tell 'em that
He's got no one to blame
When time runs out on his game
He's blowing up
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Let's just drop an A-bomb
To light him up
We've gotta tell 'em that
He's got no one to blame
When time runs out on his game
He's blowing up
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Got my US flag up
Yes I support Bush
Our friend the dictator
Kills people in his country
Too bad the UN sucks
So I'm stuck here wishing them free
I'm not political
I don't know much at all
It's not fighting just to fight
It's fighting for what's right
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Let's just drop an A-bomb
To light him up
We've gotta tell 'em that
He's got no one to blame
When time runs out on his game
He's blowing up
I wanna shoot up Saddam
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Saddam's got weapons now
But we don't see enough
For the entire left
To want to treat him tough
Every time I turn around
You're bashing Bush, it makes me frown
Maybe something's wrong with you
That makes you act the way you do
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Let's just drop an A-bomb
To light him up
We've gotta tell 'em that
He's got no one to blame
When time runs out on his game
He's blowing up
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Set Iraqis free
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Before they're dead as can be
I'll stand firm for the war
But I feel your sympathy
You have a noble heart, but lately
I'm the one with sanity
Every time I turn around
You're bashing Bush, it makes me frown

I think you're a crazy fool
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Let's just drop an A-bomb
To light him up
We've gotta tell 'em that
He's got no one to blame
When time runs out on his game
He's blowing up
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Let's just drop an A-bomb
To light him up
We've gotta tell 'em that
He's got no one to blame
When time runs out on his game
He's blowing up
I wanna shoot up Saddam
Got my US flag up
Yes I support Bush

My school is full of anti-Bush people. I don't know what side I should be on, but I think it's really cool that you can take a serious issue and make fun of it in a song. Some people might say that's bad, but I think that's talent. But I wouldn't be surprised if people didn't take my comment seriously because my screen name is ChocolateTurtle. Maybe I should try something like ILoveAlgebra@PythagoreanTheorem.Edu.
