Here is the corrected version

Hey Ossama you son of a bitch here is your swan song;to the tune Fernando

Can you hear the bombs, ossamo?

You remember long ago

Another starry night like this

In the cavelight, ossamo

You were humming to yourself

And softly strumming your Qatar

You could hear the distant bombs

And sounds of musslim calls were coming from afar

They were closer now, ossamo

Every hour, every minute seemed to last eternally

You were so afraid, ossamo

We were young and full of life

And all of us prepared to die

And I'm not ashamed to say

The roar of guns and bombers almost made me cry

There was something in the air that night

The stars and stripes, ossamo

They were flying here for you and me

For liberty, osaamo

Though you never thought that you could lose

There's no regret

If we had to do the same again

We would, my friends, oh you know

If we had to do the same again

We would, my friends, don't you know

Now you're cold and cold, ossamo

Since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hands

Can you hear the bombs, ossamo?

Do you still recall the fateful night

We crossed Afghanistan?

I can see it in you eyes

How proud you were to fight for tryanny in this land

There was something in the air that night The stars and stripes, ossamo They were flying there for you and me For liberty, ossamo Though you never thought that you could lose There's no regret If I had to the same again I would, my fiend, ossamo

There was something in the air that night

The stars and strpes, ossamo

They were shining there for you and me

For liberty, ossamo

Though you never thought that you could lose

And now you're DEAD

If we had to do the same again

We would, my friends, oh you know

Yes, if we had to do the same again

We would, my friends , oh you know

If We had to do the same again

We would, my friends, don't you know
