The Lyrics

Last August I did a parody on "That Saddam Family". I've done another with some added versus with a look at the situation in Iraq one year after the invasion. Doesn't look like a lot has really changed. Here's the URL of the original: http://www.amiright.com/parody/misc/tvshowthemesong0.shtml
We didn't find no nukies,
Now US troops Kirkuk seize,
Moqtada Sadr mis'ries,
The Saddam legacy.

Cleric guys are extree-em,
They make the masses scree-am,
It's still the same regi-em,
Of Saddam's legacy.

Might,
Fight,
Shite.

An intifada brawl on,
With prayer rugs they can fall on,
They try to put the stall on,
Iraq democracy.

Saddam hid in revi-ne,
And all his Fedaye-en,
Fought with Mudjahide-en,
To save his legacy.

His son's died in a shoot out,
The UN put some food out,
Still trying to get crude out,
Soon Saddam's history.

Soon coming is June thirty,
The day Iraq's lib-erty,
They'll still be playin' dirty,
Like Saddam's family.

Interesting use of the Iraqi city names.....
Guy - April 22, 2004 - Report this comment
Thank you all - author's note - Moqtada Sadr is not the name of an Iraqi city but is the name of the cleric who is wanted for the murder of a pro American cleric and who is currently surrounded by US Marines as he tries to negotiate his position.

4-5-5 because it was longer than the original. But it was pretty good.

Just another reason why "The Addams Family" is superior to "The Munsters",it had a great theme song to base this great parody on! 5,5,5!

In true Austin Powers fashion, I see the sequel first followed by the original, hoping it's as well researched and witty as this gem! 5s!

Thanks again everyone who read, commented and voted on this song.

Jake - I've had nearly eight months to polish my writing so this one should be better than the first as you say in your comments on the original. Much appreciate the honest commentary.
