The Lyrics
Scenario if the celebs actually had the guts to go to Iraq themselves...
Said farewell to the USA
It isn't now my kind of abode
Tinseltown gave me confidence
So now I'm heading out on the road
Baghdad City never looked so pretty
But Sean Penn is running late
Slow down George I wanna stay alive
Gonna settle right down and wait
Human, human shields
Make sure everyone's gonna
Know the way we feel
Human, human shields
And yeah, we're gonna stand in the way
We'll hold hands - wave to ol' Saddam
And we'll sing "We Are the World"
This is fabs - well here come Sue and Babs
And our peace signs are unfurled
Barbra's nose like a siren blows
Cause the missiles are heading in
Asner shouts "Well please don't take us out!
Why not aim at Osama Bin?"
Human, human shields
Make sure everyone's gonna
Know the way we feel
Human, human shields
And yeah, we're gonna stand in the way
Spend our time supporting vicious crime
We wanna plant our feet right down
Saddam put us up in this old bus
And then he drove us into town
Spend the day looking skyward way
Where we expect to see the blast
Danny Glover's starting to sh*t bricks
He'd like to go back to his past
Human, human shields
Make sure everyone's gonna
Know the way we feel
Human, human shields
And yeah, we're gonna stand in the way
It isn't now my kind of abode
Tinseltown gave me confidence
So now I'm heading out on the road
Baghdad City never looked so pretty
But Sean Penn is running late
Slow down George I wanna stay alive
Gonna settle right down and wait
Human, human shields
Make sure everyone's gonna
Know the way we feel
Human, human shields
And yeah, we're gonna stand in the way
We'll hold hands - wave to ol' Saddam
And we'll sing "We Are the World"
This is fabs - well here come Sue and Babs
And our peace signs are unfurled
Barbra's nose like a siren blows
Cause the missiles are heading in
Asner shouts "Well please don't take us out!
Why not aim at Osama Bin?"
Human, human shields
Make sure everyone's gonna
Know the way we feel
Human, human shields
And yeah, we're gonna stand in the way
Spend our time supporting vicious crime
We wanna plant our feet right down
Saddam put us up in this old bus
And then he drove us into town
Spend the day looking skyward way
Where we expect to see the blast
Danny Glover's starting to sh*t bricks
He'd like to go back to his past
Human, human shields
Make sure everyone's gonna
Know the way we feel
Human, human shields
And yeah, we're gonna stand in the way
