The Lyrics

Hiding in a cave in Af-ghan'stan
Trying to get to Iran or Iraq
The man from Tal'ban said, "We're under attack"
You know we didn't even have us a plan

Allah you know it ain't easy
O-oh say can you see
The way things are going
They'll never deify me

Finally we escaped into Kabul
Hiding over by Jal-a-bad
Dubya Bush called to say
"I'm gonna get you someday
I can get Rumsfeld in Pakistan, near Wad"

Allah you know it ain't easy
O-oh say can you see
The way things are going
They'll never deify me

Walked from Kabul to the Kandahar Hilton
Knowing that our future is bleak
The newspapers said, "We thought you had fled"
I said, "We're only trying to get through this week"

Allah you know it ain't easy
O-oh say can you see
The way things are going
They'll never deify me

Shaving all our faces and began to pray
Hoping to avoid the enemy
Last night the wives said
"Oh Bin, when you're dead
We don't know nothing 'bout you
But your clothes, stink!"

Made a lightning trip to Tora Bora
Feeling like the end's almost here
The newspapers said, "he looks like he's dead
And we think he missed a spot by his ear"

Allah you know it ain't easy
O-oh say can you see
The way things are going
They'll never deify me

Heard Tony Blair back in London
Talking like he's George Bush's flack
The men from the press said, "The war's a success
And now they're gonna take out Iraq"

Allah you know it ain't easy
O-oh say can you see
The way things are going
They'll never deify me
The way things are going
They'll never deify me
