A Flock of Sequels.
Iran (To the tune of I Ran – Flock of Seagulls)

In January leaving you
There’s somewhere else to bomb before I’m through
Bomb before I’m through
With Bolton’s rage and Kristol’s lies
Another batch of yellow cake for you
Yellow cake for you

Yes Iran, Iran’s not far away
And my plan, another mess to make
Before my getaway

I know you fears, I know your dread
How I love to use them against you
Use them against you
Whether he’s alive or dead
Osama is still coming after you
Coming after you

Yes Iran, Iran’s not far away
And my plan, another mess to make
Before my getaway

The propaganda is in place
The MSM knows what it has to do
What it has to do
Maybe invoke the Taliban
I’ve got a brand new curveball just for you
Curveball just for you

Yes Iran, Iran’s not far away
And my plan, another mess to make
Before my getaway

21. Another Flock of Seagulls (haircuts) tune... Wishing -> Fishing (If I had a photograph of tubes!)
Edited on Tue Jul-08-08 06:00 PM by calipendence
Here's another stab (the first verse anyway)...

Wishing (If I had a Photograph of you)...

Could be...


Fishing (If I had a Photograph of tubes)...

It’s not the WMD's
And it’s not bombing the Kurds,
Although we also "torture" too.
It’s more the way his oil
is what my buddies want
to control the whole world.

If I had a photograph of tubes,
That's an excuse that would help me.
I wouldn’t spend my life just fishing.

... (more to follow)

15. Cool, You got me thinking again of some other songs I'd like new lyrics to...

For the Thompson Twins of that time period...
---------------------------------------------

- Judy Do (change it to tell the story of Judith Miller)
http://www.lyricsdepot.com/thompson-twins/judy-do.html

- Don't mess with Dr. Dream (change it to "Don't mess with Dr. Dean", and make a song in celebration of our Doctor Howard Dean)
http://www.lyricsdepot.com/thompson-twins/dont-mess-with-doctor-dream.html

- Lies, lies, lies (doesn't need much changes, but could be combined with the other two for a trio of songs.
http://www.lyricstime.com/thompson-twins-the-lies-lyrics.html

And another I've been meaning to do for a long time is Gordon Lightfoot's "Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" to become "Talk to Sibel Edmonds, Fitzgerald!"

The one you have here is awesome! Calling Symbolman! (Secret Agent Plame)

20. That last idea's so good calipendence :evilguffaw:
The Thompson Twins ideas are good too, but the cackle that came outta me when I saw the Fitzgerald idea and it began to fit was just plain satanic.

When you write it, please don't let me miss it? You're a very good writer. You hafta be, I'm always mad when I miss your pieces, and I've missed far too many of them.

As the muse strikes me, I will always pass along its gifts.

I am, and forever will be, at your service and in your debt.
