MC Riz POST 911 BLUES Lyrics

What can I do? I got the post 9/11 blues
On the telly nuthin but the post 9/11 news
War, Iraq, suicide bombs
Stop hogging the limelight
And make some room for my songs!!
Anyway its all re-runs
We need a new war Bush! Go get Iran, I heard they're talking 'bout your mum!
Change the channel, watch some telly for kids, but what's this?
'Hi kids welcome to fun fun fun fundamentalists' [kids show theme style]
In the breaks, Nike's advertising bomb-proof kicks
They're even showing Bin Laden's cave on "Cribs"!
So I picked up a respectable magazine
It told me about the new post 9/11 categories -
Israeli fighters are soldiers, Irish are paramilitary
- And "darkie" ones are terrorists - how simple can it be?
But not me.. my friends say: "Riz is still one of us"
But if I haven't shaved - they won't sit with me on the bus!

CHORUS
Everybody do the post 9/11 dance
Look scared and shake ya a___ while the bombs go blast
Everybody shake your post 9/11 thong
So the dossier was wrong
Jack some oil drop a bomb
Sing a song, sing along
Bush and Blair in a tree
K-I-L-L-I-N-G-
Shave your beard if you're brown, and you best salute the crown
Or they'll do you like Brazillians and shoot your a___ down

Post 9/11 getting around can be expensive
Cost ya twelve dead Iraqis for a litre of unleaded
And even Green Cross Codes all changed
They just teach kids to duck around low flying planes
And on the tube if you see a dude with a rucksack,
And a beard, move carriages mate - f___ that!
They cancelled xmas cos of santa claus' beard and his magic
Red sack got confiscated as a suspect package
No need for Halloween, 9/11s more scary
Osama Bin Goblin eats kids and he's hairy
Hear a knockin' on the door at early dawn in the dark?
It's MI6 they'll trick or treat you to a week in Belmarsh
Forget Guy Fawkes, he's lame
Gunpowder plots don't really compare to planes
So no bonfire, Halloween or Christmas, they're done
We'll do it all on one day, Merry Nine One One

CHORUS
Everybody do the post 9/11 dance
Look scared and shake ya a___ while the bombs go blast
Everybody shake your post 9/11 thong
So the dossier was wrong
Jack some oil, drop a bomb
Sing a song, sing along
Bush and Blair in a tree
K-I-L-L-I-N-G
Shave your beard if you're brown and you best salute the crown
Or they'll do you like Brazillians and shoot your a___ down

Post 9/11 policy might seem harsh
But it's the terrorists fault we got id cards
And a congestion charge?
That they're extending far
And electronic tags on the chav childrens arms
Course we need Belmarsh and f___ 28 days
We should put the whole of Oldham in its own f___in' cage
Move Hounslow underground so nothing could go wrong
Luton's already moving, Bradford's already gone
We're all suspects so literally, be watching your back
I farted and got arrested for a chemical attack
Dropped some litter on the street and I caused a bomb scare
But told police my name was John, they thought they caught the wrong brae
But its oksy
Post 9/11 I been getting paid
Playing terrorists on telly getting songs made
But will it get airplay geeza?
Well, if BBC don't want it I'll send it to Al- Jazeera
