Islamic Bomb lyrics

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 
Kuz the guards all took a bribe 
And on all the hot spots 
Gettin' 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 
Tellin 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
