The Lobby, For Palestine

The Lobby

(VERSE 1)

      G                       C         	
Since Carter was bowed by the power of the lobby,

    G                 D
and politics became a game.

      G                        C             
Those sorrowful Americans that cry out for Zion,

    G       D        G    
but not in America’s name.

(CHORUS)
And the pro-media goes along for the ride.
Is the pro-media on your side?
And the pro-media goes along for the ride.
In America there’s nowhere to hide.

(VERSE 2)
Selling arms to khomeni to fight Democracy
Dutch becomes a criminal.
He diverts our money to Nicaragua
to support the Contra rebels.

(CHORUS)

(VERSE 3)
Then Geo. The First accepts the agenda,
so the lobby is on his side.
Most Democrats got their heads up their ass,
and apparently they don’t know how to lie.

(CHORUS)

(VERSE 4)
So America elects Governor Clinton,
but the lobby sees through his lies.
His good name is slandered and slurred by the papers,
but the TV does not desensitize!

(CHORUS)

(VERSE 5)
Now Israel has found it’s perfect dupe.
In the form of an ignorant Texican.
He charges in to Battle with those goddamn Arabs.
Just like James K. and those dirty Mexicans.

(CHORUS)

"For Palestine" by M.wynn

   (VERSE 1)
Gm		        Cm
We’ve been apart for so long.
Gm		      Cm
Kept from the world’s wrongs.
Gm		      Cm
But now the oceans confide.
Gm		       D
And there’s nowhere to hide.

(CHORUS 3X)
D		           Gm
There are no innocent in Israel.

(VERSE 2)
So where are we gonna go?
Now that Rachel’s gone home.
And what are we gonna do?
If next time they take you.

(CHORUS 3X)

(VERSE 3)
Now that tragedy’s met with us.
It’s to late for an exodus.
Still the memories linger on and on and on,
but we must always carry on.

(CHORUS 3X)

(REPEAT 2ND VERSE)

(CHORUS 1X)
