Tom Flannery Everything Gonna Be Alright
If you want to learn all about this warfollow your
money to the back room door
well manicured white men run up the store
sitting cross legged on the counting room floor
Everything gonna be alright
everything gonna be alright
Jesus took Mohammad in a street fight
everything gonna be alright
About as patriotic as a freedom fry
and as holy as a tsetse fly
with God and flags on their lapels
sending more poor kids off to distant hells
Everything gonna be alright
everything gonna be alright
say your prayers but leave on the light
everything gonna be alright
From one hijacking to another
better butter up them guns
he could have told us sooner
that he was the choosen one
Propaganda as subtle as a wrecking ball
ghost of Zarqawi could be down the hall
preying on fear and the minds of those
who need a calculator to count their toes
Everything gonna be alright
everything gonna be alright
money doesn't swear it has learned to bite
everything gonna be alright
Fighting war is easy from Cheney's lair
bomb proof bunker and an easy chair
with draft deferments on the wall
and dividend checks in the bathroom stall
Everything gonna be alright
everything gonna be alright
down is up and black is white
everything gonna be alright
It's a holy war
a new crusade
throw in tax cuts
and we've got it made
Stoned on Jesus and drunk on oil
blood spilled in the desert will start to boil
bury empty heads in convenient sand
oh your plane is about to land
Everything gonna be alright
everything gonna be alright
Jesus took Mohammad in a street fight
everything gonna be alright
