The Lyrics
This will be my second and last item in the Man Bites Dog Sweepstakes, so if this topic isn't to your taste*, don't read on. I actually did this one 12 years ago in conjunction with Obama weirdly claiming that he once ate dogmeat at the behest of his stepfather, Lola Soetero, when he lived in Indonesia ... Given that Muslims consider dogs unclean, this would probably be "Haram" under Muslim Law. But perhaps Lola was something of a Jack Muslim. Some Indonesians are necessarily as hard core about Islam as Muslims closer to Arabia. But then again, others would be
Deep down in Indonesia
Amongst the Javanese
Way back in Jakarta slums
Beneath the mangrove trees
There stood an iron grill
Burning fire and wood
Used by a Jack Muslim
Named Lola B Goode
Who never heeded words
Of Al Hadeeth so well
But he could grill up a Corgi
Just like a-ringing a bell
Go go, go Lola go .. go
Go Lola go ..go
Go Lola go .. go
Go Lola go .. go
Lola grill good
He used to trap his mongrels
With a gunny sack
Roving around in packs
Down by the railroad track
Oh, his neighbors see him
Firing up his grill
Cooking up a snack
Defying Allah's will
People passing by, they
Would watch him baste
Sayin' "My that Lola
Has some haram tastes"
No no, no Lola no .. No
No Lola no .. no
No Lola no .. no
No Lola no .. no
Lola, not good
His stepson told him
"Someday you'll be The Man"
And you will be the vendor
Of a grilled dog stand
Muslim people coming
From miles around
To set fire to your stand
And to burn it down
Maybe some day they'll
Set your stand alight
Saying "Rover ain't food tonight"
No, no .. no Lola no .. No
No Lola no .. No
No Lola no .. No
No Lola no .. No
Rover ain't food
Amongst the Javanese
Way back in Jakarta slums
Beneath the mangrove trees
There stood an iron grill
Burning fire and wood
Used by a Jack Muslim
Named Lola B Goode
Who never heeded words
Of Al Hadeeth so well
But he could grill up a Corgi
Just like a-ringing a bell
Go go, go Lola go .. go
Go Lola go ..go
Go Lola go .. go
Go Lola go .. go
Lola grill good
He used to trap his mongrels
With a gunny sack
Roving around in packs
Down by the railroad track
Oh, his neighbors see him
Firing up his grill
Cooking up a snack
Defying Allah's will
People passing by, they
Would watch him baste
Sayin' "My that Lola
Has some haram tastes"
No no, no Lola no .. No
No Lola no .. no
No Lola no .. no
No Lola no .. no
Lola, not good
His stepson told him
"Someday you'll be The Man"
And you will be the vendor
Of a grilled dog stand
Muslim people coming
From miles around
To set fire to your stand
And to burn it down
Maybe some day they'll
Set your stand alight
Saying "Rover ain't food tonight"
No, no .. no Lola no .. No
No Lola no .. No
No Lola no .. No
No Lola no .. No
Rover ain't food

Good one!
Well done CML, this was a great read. I also did a parody of this song a while back.
I was better at this skill back then, than I am now. Brain is slowing down
