The Lyrics

Something I'd imagine the Afgan women would like to do with former despots of Afghanistan...
Pay-O! Pay-O!
It's payback time and we'll lock you in home
Pay-O! Pay-O!
It's payback time and we'll lock you in home

For ten long years you oppressed us,
It's payback time and we'll lock you in home
You killed us and maimed us, like Fascism it was,
It's payback time and we'll lock you in home
Pay-O! Pay-O!
It's payback time and we'll lock you in home

Now run Mister Taliban, you'd better be a-hiding
It's payback time and we'll lock you in home
When we get you, you sure be a-cry-ing
It's payback time and we'll lock you in home

It's six locks', seven locks', eight locks' door!
It's payback time and we'll lock you in home
Pay, it's the pay, it's the pay, it's the pay-
It's the payback time and we'll lock you in home

Remember when you forced us to dress in burkha?
It's payback time and we'll lock you in home
We'll cut your beard and shave your hair and teach you to be-have-a!
It's payback time and we'll lock you in home
