Thread Name: The Anti Iraq War Movement Needs a Song
Subject: RE: The Anti Iraq War Movement Needs a Song
My Carter-era (1978) BATTLE FOR NEW OIL-LEASE might fit the bill
(to the tune of 8th of January)
Original chorus -
Iran thru the press
Iran thru the papers
Iran thru the White House
Where the oil money flows
Iran so bad
Our army couldn't catch 'em
They took our radar bases
In the Gulf of Texaco.
Substitute Iraq
And repeat
