The Lyrics
Syria, you're second on the list now
They're looking for his body, They're gonna get him somehow
I think you'll get the low down before they bomb you'll know it
I think you're better off to back down, so be fearful and just show it
They really don't remember, was it your place that he fled?
Are the forces of the West crawling, Syria?
Syria, don't you think they're comin'?
If everybody wants him, why is it you keep them from him?
You won't have to answer
They've been planin' all the time, oh-oh-oh, destroying Syria
Syria (Syria), I think they called your number (Syria)
They think he's been in Damascus (Syria) they want him to surrender (Syria)
But they really don't remember, was it your place that he fled?
Are the forces of the West crawling, Syria?
A-ha-ha, a-ha-ha, Syria, how's it gonna go down?
Will you keep it safe for Sa-dam, or will you ditch him on the first sound?
Will you settle for his money, take up cover in the afternoon?
Feel your governence slipping away, don't believe it's comin' back soon
And they really don't remember, was it your place that he fled?
Are the forces of the West crawling, Syria?
Syria, don't you think they're comin'?
If everybody wants him, why is it you keep them from him?
You won't have to answer
They've been planin' all the time, oh-oh-oh, destroying Syria
Syria (Syria), I think they called your number (Syria)
They think he's been in Damascus (Syria) they want him to surrender (Syria)
But they really don't remember, was it your place that he fled?
Are the forces of the West crawling, Syria?
(Syria, Syria, Syria, Syria, Syria)
(Syria, Syria, Syria, Syria, Syria)
They're looking for his body, They're gonna get him somehow
I think you'll get the low down before they bomb you'll know it
I think you're better off to back down, so be fearful and just show it
They really don't remember, was it your place that he fled?
Are the forces of the West crawling, Syria?
Syria, don't you think they're comin'?
If everybody wants him, why is it you keep them from him?
You won't have to answer
They've been planin' all the time, oh-oh-oh, destroying Syria
Syria (Syria), I think they called your number (Syria)
They think he's been in Damascus (Syria) they want him to surrender (Syria)
But they really don't remember, was it your place that he fled?
Are the forces of the West crawling, Syria?
A-ha-ha, a-ha-ha, Syria, how's it gonna go down?
Will you keep it safe for Sa-dam, or will you ditch him on the first sound?
Will you settle for his money, take up cover in the afternoon?
Feel your governence slipping away, don't believe it's comin' back soon
And they really don't remember, was it your place that he fled?
Are the forces of the West crawling, Syria?
Syria, don't you think they're comin'?

(Syria, Syria, Syria, Syria, Syria)
(Syria, Syria, Syria, Syria, Syria)

Another song about the war.I loved it.
snowflakes i like to feel the snowflakes as they sprinkle down i like to listen as they fall not making any sound i like to see them flutter by and play a little game i taste them on my tongue and give them each a name it's imposible to smell them did you ever try? catching little snowflakes as they flutter by
Dear KImba T. Dogg.. i really find no need for such an assult on a country..because wat u r doing is generalizing which is absolutly wrong, in order for a person to generalize there r usually one of/or two of the following reasons...either the person is fanatic about the subject he's trying to make (which is wrong)...or he/she is just ignorant about the subject they speak of..and in this case..both r present. and i understand that ur patriotic, but u dont have to attack other countries that u have never even heard of if it wasnt for the on going "tentions" at the moment. anyways politics is through logic..and sadam was captured and he was not in syria..so revise ur thoughts about that subject if u count urself among thoes "regular ppl"..not ignorants
