Can you post your lyrics? I have a few ideas for some edits that might make it easier to sing.
OK.
“Allahu Akbar” (parody of “Hallelujah”)
Lyrics by Hopalong Ginsberg; Music by Leonard Cohen
The Jews of Medina took you in
Lest before the L-rd they sin
But charity is not part of who you are.
You took their arms, their wealth, their land
Killed all those who would make a stand
Punctuating each demand with “Allah akbar!”
Allahu akbar...
Allahu akbar...
Allahu akbar...
Allahu akbar
The Towers burned and quickly fell
Turned into a piece of Hell
Three thousand lives extinguished like a dead star.
In the streets you cheered and cried
Laughing as the people died
From the rooftops you replied “Allahu akbar!”
[chorus]
The relics of a bygone age
Filled you with a jealous rage
Reminding you that you had fallen so far.
The beauty you could not create
You’d burn and crush and desecrate
Destroying with a bitter “Allahu akbar!”
[chorus]
You loved death, but they loved life
And so your children took the knife
The hatred in their souls as black as coal tar.
The innocent they then struck down
The blood spilled on the holy ground
Murdered to the sound of “Allahu akbar!”
[chorus x 2]
