Made in 1979

(To be read aloud)

A conifer or a deciduous,
It’s got roots, it shoots – he scores,
3 2 1: Good God everyone, ground zero,
Why’s this terrorist here a hero?

Call Mr. Analyst, the Zionist,
But he don’t know what to say,
He choked: look what you did,
Made O’Reilly look like a little kid.
It’s just FOX News, media fantasy,
A story, baloney… it’s hypocrisy,
He’s live, stuck outta luck,
Like a sock in a stinky shoe,
The laces tied too tight, what’s he gonna do?
There’s nowhere to go, no hope for air flow.

Suck it up buttercup,
Yeah I can say that,
Cuz I wear my hat forwards
Like a white man, though I’m an A-si-an,
We who lack identity, just suburbia superficiality,
Criss-cross philosophy, mish-mash mentality,
A tisket, a tasket, a Protestant casket,
We brown people, we never conquer anyone,
Hell I never even owned a gun
But shhh! Don’t tell anyone.
Lest they get the best of us
And turn thus dangerous

A black man might as well be from Mars
He’s like a virus, make you sick like SARS
Speaking ebonic, might as well be bubonic.
They’re contagious, everything they say sounds so good,
Knock on wood

Little Haroon: Do you wanna end up in poverty?
But that’s not fair, we get so much
And for them it isn’t such,
I drove through Harlem, I can talk to you about the problem: Not enough money!
Quiet honey, act like the cat got your tongue,
The doorbell rung,
We ran out the other door, why but it’s the FBI
No reports, just deportations,
Don’t be shy, he says, I got some questions, sir
Well enter, mister,
I just wanted some answers.

American-ology
by Wan Imran Wan Chik

America here, America there,
America seems to be almost everywhere,
Sticking their noses into other countries' affairs,
Right down until your very own underwear,
Cause they think that this whole world is theirs.
A modern country but with uncivilised people,
Infecting the world with their lifestyles and ideology,
They live without tradition or moral values, making everything look so very simple,
Invading the world through weapons of psychology,
By creating their utopia called Americanology.
'A' serious effect upon the Earth's ecology,
Making fewer friends and more and more enemies,
By disrupting other countries' peaceful economy,
Without saying 'Excuse me!' or 'I owe you an apology!'
Advanced in space travel and in astronomy,
Creators of nuclear bombs and war technology,
Heroes only in movies, novels and short stories,
'Cause every last American President needs a lobotomy.
America is a hero only to fools' eyes,
It is a villain wearing a disguise,
Plaguing the world by telling lies,
Only to be seen by leaders who are wise,
Leaders who listen to their nations' cries.
For those who are foolish America's price they will pay,
To become an uncivilised country but modern in every way,
By gambling their future to be modern and richer today,
As social problems would grow each and every day,
And the countries' identity, cultural and traditional heritage would just seem to fade away,
Which is the only defence against America which has gone far astray.

[Adam in Montreal]

WORD UP TO AMERICAN-OLOGY!

Poor little world, it'd be perfect without
The Americans, there we all have no doubt.
No Holocaust, Slave Trade, no India partition
We'd all be good brothers, we'd all go ice fishin
We'd never have wars or misunderstandings
We'd never want food, we'd have perfect planning
As everyone knows, the Yanks stop all that
They'd rather we starve while they get all the fat
They started the war between Sunni and Shia
They keep muslims down from Saudi to Syria
They force everybody to buy all their stuff
But here's the best way to call out their bluff:
Let's all stop using whatever they made
It's all crap and can come to no good anyway
Let's stop driving cars
Let's shut down TV
Let's stop buying albums by Puff and Britney
Let's stop emigrating to get a good future
Let's stay with our lifetime benevolent ruler
Let's go back in time to the paradise lost
When purity reigned and no man was boss
When kindly old races like Mongols and Persians
Solved all their problems without any hurtin
Now THERE were some morally principled rulers
Why can't it be back like when Genghis was cooler?
Back in the day when America was nothing
And we were all perfect, and peaceful and loving
There must be a time
It can't be a dream
I mean, if it ain't true
Then who would we blame?

[haroon]

Without America-defenders, I would be no one,
Because others have faults
They have none

Because others have committed sin,
They are exonerated without and within

Because they treat some well,
They can threaten a few with hell

This is not hypocrisy,
But only democracy

If someone bombed their congress,
and built a wall around their home,
they would ban our dress
and make us worship rome

(that's really bad
america defender is glad)
