lyrics

I've been running from the CIA
I'm a high-level member of the worldwide evil, well
That's what they say
I've been flown around the planet on a secret plane
Had my tool put on display
Can't go home, they won't lend me a phone
I got tortured in the USA
And I'm not crazy 'bout Jihad
Just because I tried to make it
With a cute girl from Islamabad

I'm headed for Gitmo
I'll be there for my whole life
(Rockin' in Gitmo)
Gonna get beat up tonight
(Fun times in Gitmo)
You can't phone and you can't write
(Lockdown in Gitmo)
I'm never gonna see the light

Everything is one big lie
The Pentagon said I had knives and bombs and flew anthrax on a kite
Told my mom I was a terrorist, wouldn't let me say goodbye
They claim my Eagle Scout award no longer will apply
And I don't back the Taliban
I don't bleed pinko commie red, and I've never been to Iran

But I'm heading for Gitmo
Sucking air for my whole life
(Rockin' in Gitmo)
Gonna get rubber-hosed tonight
(Fun times in Gitmo)
Can't phone and you can't write
(Lockdown in Gitmo)
Never gonna see the light

I used to wave the flag in July
But now them German Shephard's bite

I'm headed for Gitmo
I'll be there for my whole life life
(Rockin' in Gitmo)
Gonna get beat up tonight
(Fun times in Gitmo)
You can't phone and you can't write
(Lockdown in Gitmo)
I'm never gonna see the light
