Shi'ite Punk

(album: Slippery When Ill - 1989)

Religious dedication rushing through his veins
Cause the Shi'ite Punks don't feel no pain listen up
Hey you'd better set my people free
Before I body bomb your embassy
Well if no one listens to this third world punk
Grab some hostages you'll hear his junk
He's a mean sidewinder he don't take no "jive"
In the Muslim life you fight to stay alive

Shi'ite Punk looking for a fight

Skanking his way through his third world place
With a big black mole in the middle of his face
He's a Shi'ite Punk and he's looking for a fight
But he's got no time, he's gotta catch a flight
Muhammed Vommit don't mind the weather
He's got Nabih Berri on the back of his leather
We gotta skinhead, clenched fists, boots to his knees
He's a punk, don't never say please

Shi'ite Punk looking for a fight
Shi'ite Punk don't mind the weather

Living in the Middle East, don't get many shows
For most people that's the way it goes
Hello U.S.A let me talk to the man
We'll release the students, we just wanna see some hands
Big time government can't be pushed around
Caught in a bind and they're going to town
I said that big time government can't be pushed around
So we're caught in a bind, yeah we're going to town

Shi'ite Punk looking for a fight
Shi'ite Punk don't mind the weather
Nabih Berri on the back of his leather

Well what can we do with the situation at hand
Tell ya what, better meet our demands
Want a blonde and a Rolls Royce bullets for my gun
Wine coolers and a nuclear bomb
Want a freedom for my people, no religious persecution
Give me this and there'll be no revolution
Want a record contract for my band
Yeah we're going on tour all the way to Graceland

Shi'ite Punk looking for a fight
No time, I've gotta catch a flight
Shi'ite Punk don't mind the weather
Nabih Berri on the back of his leather

Religious dedication rushing through his veins
Cause the Shi'ite Punks don't feel no pain listen up
Hey you'd better set my people free
Before I body bomb your embassy
Well if no one listens to this third world punk
Grab some hostages you'll hear his junk
He's a mean sidewinder he don't take no "jive"
In the Muslim life you fight to stay alive

Shi'ite Punk looking for a fight
Shi'ite Punk don't mind the weather
