Song Information:
David Hicks, a.k.a Prisoner No.002 at Guantanamo Bay is back in Australia. he got home by a plea bargain where he admitted he was a terrorist member of Al Qaeda. Now, he's back on the streets after 5 years at Camp X-Ray.
Amazingly - in one of those dumb ironies - he's now staying in Sydney in the Suburb next to my place, shopping at my local supabarn supermarket. The press found out and splashed his face across the front pages.
Yeah, I know. It's weird. So weird in fact I couldn't resist writing this song. I wanted to sound like a drunk bloke singing this song like karaoke. Also, I'm trying to cop a feel off David Lindley and El-Rayo-X in reference to Camp X-Ray.
Song Lyrics:
Verse 1.
They say there’ s a terrorist in my neighborhood
He used to be in Camp X-Ray
He spent five years in an orange suit
down in Guantanamo Bay
They sent him back to his homeland
North of Adelaide
Now he’s hanging in my town shopping up at supabarn
trying to hide away
Chorus
Terrorist, hanging in my neighborhood
Terrorist, living in my neighborhood
Verse 2.
He used be friends with Omar
With Mohammed’s words in his heart
and the guys in the cave in Tora Bora
said he could go hang with Osama
meanwhile the boys from Al Qaeda
brought down the Twin Towers
Then the American bombs came raining down
Like somebody’s golden showers
Chorus
Terrorist, hanging in my neighborhood
Terrorist, living in my neighborhood
Verse 3
Major Mike was a lawyer man,
working for the US marines
They made him defend the worst man around
(said) he’s like nothing he’s ever seen.
All Mike saw was a weasel caught
a long, long way from home
but the powers that be and the judiciary
wanted a bargain for his plea.
Chorus
Terrorist, hanging in my neighborhood
Terrorist, living in my neighborhood
Verse 4.
There’ s a terrorist hanging in my neighborhood
He used to be in Camp X-Ray
He spent five years in an orange suit
down in Guantanamo Bay
They sent him back to his homeland
North of Adelaide
Now he’s hanging in my town shopping up at supabarn
trying to find a new way
Chorus
Terrorist, hanging in my neighborhood
Terrorist, living in my neighborhood
