IN THE NAME OF
THE BELLY OF THE BEAST
E
Well here we are inside the belly of the beast
E
Is this the final clash between the West and East?
A E
And will this new crusade bring evildoers finally to their knees?
E
Or is it
E
You say you'll take Iraq Out of the tyrant's hands
E
You'll build democracy upon the shifting sands
A E
It's not about the oil, it's not about just who will rule the land
E
You keep on saying that but no one understands
B A E
Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, but not in my name!
E
Yes you're the toughest guys that ever strode the earth
E
You've got the biggest missile dicks. for what it's worth
A E
Yes you're the baddest boys that ever stayed at home to fight a war
E
But you're no brighter than the ones that went before
B A E
I guess you'll do what you want to, but not in my name!
E
And now here's Haliburton waiting in the wings
E
To give the natives beads and other pretty things
A E
And then there's Bechtel and the Carlyle Group dividing up the spoils
E
You always said it wasn't just about the oil
B A E
You're busy building your empire, but not in my name!
A E
Well we're not with you, we were not with you before
A E
No we're not with you, we are not with you in this war (Repeat ad nauseum)
