TITLE: In a world gone mad

In a world gone mad it?s hard to think right
So much violence hate and spite
Murder going on all day and night
Due time we fight the non-violent fight

Mirrors, smokescreens and lies
It?s not the politicians but their actions I despise
You and Saddam should kick it like back in the day
With the cocaine and Courvoisier
But you build more bombs as you get more bold
As your mid-life crisis war unfolds
All you want to do is take control
Now put that axis of evil bullshit on hold
Citizen rule number 2080
Politicians are shady
So people watch your back 'cause I think they smoke crack
I don?t doubt it look at how they act

In a world gone mad it?s hard to think right
So much violence hate and spite
Murder going on all day and night
Due time we fight the non-violent fight

First the ?War On Terror? now war on Iraq
We?re reaching a point where we can?t turn back
Let?s lose the guns and let?s lose the bombs
And stop the corporate contributions that their built upon
Well I?ll be sleeping on your speeches ?til I start to snore
?Cause I won?t carry guns for an oil war
As-Salamu alaikum, wa alaikum assalam
Peace to the Middle East peace to Islam
Now don?t get us wrong ?cause we love America
But that?s no reason to get hysterica
They?re layin? on the syrup thick
We ain?t waffles we ain?t havin? it

In a world gone mad it?s hard to think right
So much violence hate and spite
Murder going on all day and night

Now how many people must get killed?
For oil families pockets to get filled?
How many oil families get killed?
Not a damn one so what?s the deal?

It?s time to lead the way and de-escalate
Lose the weapons of mass destruction and the hate
Say ooh ah what?s the White House doin??
Oh no! Say, what in tarnation have they got brewing??!!!!???!!
Well I?m not pro Bush and I?m not pro Saddam
We need these fools to remain calm
George Bush you?re looking like Zoolander
Trying to play tough for the camera
What am I on crazy pills? We?ve got to stop it
Get your hand out my grandma?s pocket
We need health care more than going to war
You think it?s democracy they?re fighting for?

In a world gone mad it?s hard to think right
So much violence hate and spite

On a side note, my son woke up crying for pancakes at 2:00 AM the other night.


Pancake houses banned :faint:

the song is on imesh.

i can sing along and it has a funky beat that i can shuffle my feet to.
 
Ugh, this song is REALLY bad. I mean, what happened to the Beastie's I LOVE. This song is lame, and almost laughable when compared the genius of many of the Beastie Boys work through the years.

Lyrics are not only bad, but wishy-washy on their stance. We love America, BUT....

They say Peace to the middle east and Islam, yet how has that been working out for the past several hundred years...??? Yeah, that's what I thought. And what's the solution, leave a ruthless dictator in power that uses WMD's on his own people and others? Who continues human rights atrocities day in and day out? I thought the Beastie Boys were huge supporters of human rights causes, yet leaving Saddam in power is furthering the suffering of Iraqi's and those arround him.

Worst lyric ever alert!!!!:

Peace to the Middle East peace to Islam
Now don?t get us wrong ?cause we love America
But that?s no reason to get hysterica
