Islamic Bomb

Jello Biafra

The sun sets on the desert of Thee Evil Empire
The seeds of mass destruction
Are still very much alive
All we got were lousy weapons
Piled up from the Cold War

The free market wrecked our country
To the black market we go
Hand grenades way up to nuke toys
From Afghanistan to Latvia
We will sell to anyone who wants the bomb

So the conga line of missiles
Dances out of storage sites
Past the checkpoints left abandoned
Cuz the guards all took a bribe
And on all the hot spots

Getting tired of being stomped on
By great Satans and their neighbors
This will change if we have the bomb
Spread gift wrapped do it yourself kits
Pay our debts to the World Bank

Before you can say Islam
Before you can say Saddam
Who's got the bomb?
Islamic bomb
For a real Axis of Evil

Keep an eye on free enterprise
Like our top secret project
At a warehouse right in town
No one here knows all the details
We just ship components out

Selling to the highest bidder
If we don't, someone else will
To third parties in third countries
You can't stop what you can't find

This is what we wanted all along
Now the arms race can go on and on
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Piss ant little countries

They were getting in our way
Trying to claim their soil's riches
Telling us we have to pay
So we tricked their wacky rulers
To go wipe each other out

Russian Roulette regime change
In a sea of mushroom clouds
Dying peasants slave at gunpoint
All their oil is finally ours

Life will never be quite like it was
Hide in our Green Zones
'Til Jesus comes but we fixed you all
With Thee Islamic bomb
