Verse 1:
In early ought six we made a little noise,
Yonder there in Pakistan for Al Quida and its boys
We heard there was a meeting so we planned the mission well,
And when the missiles landed, they all was blown to...
Chorus:
Well, their burkas went a flyin' in amongst their body parts,
they was shreddin and a tearin' as the building came apart.
Though they met in darkness, the blast was light as day,
and when it all was over all their asses ran away.
Verse 2:
We wanted al-Zawahiri, but he couldn't make the date,
So we settled for ole Mursi, and we sent him to his fate,
He'd bombed and planned and murdered, and he thought that he was fell,
But when the missiles landed, all his plans was blown to...
Chorus:
Well, their burkas went a flyin' in amongst their body parts,
shreddin and a tearin' as the building came apart.
Though they met in darkness, the blast was light as day,
and when it all was over all their asses ran away.
Ya, they ran through the canyons and they ran through the bushes,
and they ran through the thickets where their camels couldn't go.
They ran so fast that reporters couldn't catch them,
Carryin' dead and wounded so nobody else would know.
Verse 3:
Bin Laden heard the story and he laid down on his side,
and then he started moanin' when he heard that Mursi died,
He knew he'd go on hidin' and some day he too could tell,
The missiles they would come for him, and he'd be blown to...
Chorus:
Well, their burkas went a flyin' in amongst their body parts,
shreddin and a tearin' as the building came apart.
Though they met in darkness, the blast was light as day,
and when it all was over all their asses ran away.
Ya, they ran through the canyons and they ran through the bushes,
and they ran through the thickets where their camels couldn't go.
They ran so fast that reporters couldn't catch them,
Carryin' dead and wounded so nobody else would know.

FYI
Doug from Upland has some competition.
I like.
"He'd bombed and planned and murdered, and he thought that he was fell"
He thought that he was "fell"?
What the hell does that mean?
WELL done, Jeff
Not even close...Doug from Upland and Kieth from Iowa have always had tons of talent in this area. Every now and then I have a moment.
Super!
Thanks...I believe we dealt them a hard blow. Only wish it had been harder and netted a couple of other "special" targets.
Thank you...those animals deserved every bit of it.
Thanks...feel free to spread it around.
Their mules...their donkeys...LOL!
...made you laugh...
thanks again
The original for reference.
Thanks...I believe the hunt is ongoing and intense for the likes of bin-Laden and his cronies and they are having to keep their heads down very low and hide in holes...one day, they will meet their end at the hands of our military personnel.
yep...you did. hehehe. Thank you!
Thanks for the ping!
FYI...you may like this.
OK, who can you get to record it and have it played on Armed Forces Radio and Rush? I like it, it has a good beat, I'll give it a 9, Dick. I'll tell all my friends at the soda shop to buy it!
lol!!
Pretty funny, Jeff. See the private freepmail on this, though.
I'll do that.
Saw it, and thanks for the info. It would not surprise me in the least.
I know time is limited, but if you are looking for a good first-person account of the war in Afghanistan, check out "Jawbreaker" by Gary Berntsen.
bttt
One I read was "Not a good Day to Die". Pretty descriptive and graphic accounts of the biggest set battle to date in Afganistan..a little slanted though.
Thanks...and back to the top again!
I think I almost bought that---was it by the Canadian journalist?
Can't remember if he was a Canadian or not (I will look this evening) but it was defintely by a journalist.
Great job!!!!
I remember listening to the original as a kid in 1960 when we drove from Buffalo in our move to Miami.
"we filled his head with cannonballs and powdered his behind, and when we touched the powder off, the gator lost his mind" !!!!
Wellllll, we fired our guns and the British kep a comin, there wasn't quite as many as there was awhile ago,
we fired once more and they began a'runnin,
on down the Missisippi to the Gulf of Mexico......
Haven't heard it in a coons age!
Still love that song...made the long drive more bearable as we cruised the Blueridge Parkway! Along with Doris Day, Nat and Frankie!
If you ever get the chance to read a detailed account of that battle, do so. It was amazing. About 3,500 US troops (mostly state militias) against over 12,000 seasoned British regulars. There were some amazing events and issues that turned what should have been an easy British victory into a route of the British by the American forces. In about 30 minutes of the initial heavy fighting, 19 MAmericans were killed and well over 3,000 British. That's when they broke and ran to get away from the slaughter.
Thanks for that!
