Well of course they're against the war, they're Buddhists! Eventhough I disagree, I'm still a fan. Looking forward to their next album.
Lyrics! In a world gone mad it¡¯s hard to think right So much violence hate and spite Murder going on all day and night Due time we fight the non-violent fight Mirrors, smokescreens and lies It¡¯s not the politicians but their actions I despise You and Saddam should kick it like back in the day With the coca!ne and Courvoisier But you build more bombs as you get more bold As your mid-life crisis war unfolds All you want to do is take control Now put that axis of evil bullsh!t on hold Citizen rule number 2080 Politicians are shady So people watch your back 'cause I think they smoke crack I don¡¯t doubt it look at how they act In a world gone mad it¡¯s hard to think right So much violence hate and spite Murder going on all day and night Due time we fight the non-violent fight First the ¡®War On Terror¡¯ now war on Iraq We¡¯re reaching a point where we can¡¯t turn back Let¡¯s lose the guns and let¡¯s lose the bombs And stop the corporate contributions that their built upon Well I¡¯ll be sleeping on your speeches ¡®til I start to snore ¡®Cause I won¡¯t carry guns for an oil war As-Salamu alaikum, wa alaikum assalam Peace to the Middle East peace to Islam Now don¡¯t get us wrong ¡®cause we love America But that¡¯s no reason to get hysterica They¡¯re layin¡¯ on the syrup thick We ain¡¯t waffles we ain¡¯t havin¡¯ it In a world gone mad it¡¯s hard to think right So much violence hate and spite Murder going on all day and night Due time we fight the non-violent fight Now how many people must get killed? For oil families pockets to get filled? How many oil families get killed? Not a damn one so what¡¯s the deal? It¡¯s time to lead the way and de-escalate Lose the weapons of mass destruction and the hate Say ooh ah what¡¯s the White House doin¡¯? Oh no! Say, what in tarnation have they got brewing??!!!!???!! Well I¡¯m not pro Bush and I¡¯m not pro Saddam We need these fools to remain calm George Bush you¡¯re looking like Zoolander Trying to play tough for the camera What am I on crazy pills? We¡¯ve got to stop it Get your hand out my grandma¡¯s pocket We need health care more than going to war You think it¡¯s democracy they¡¯re fighting for? In a world gone mad it¡¯s hard to think right So much violence hate and spite Murder going on all day and night Due time we fight the non-violent fight
"We felt it was important to comment on where the US appears to be heading now. A war in Iraq will not resolve our problems. It can only result in the deaths of many innocent civilians and US troops. If we are truly striving for safety, we need to build friendships, not try to bully the rest of the world." - Adam Yauch "Being together, writing and recording, we felt it would be irresponsible not to address what’s going on in the world while the events are still current. It didn’t make sense to us to wait until the entire record was finished to release this song." - Mike D "This song is not an anti-American or pro-Saddam Hussein statement. This is a statement against an unjustified war." - Adam Horovitz
Cmon! "George Bush you're looking like Zoolander" is possibly the most thought out argument not to go to war I've ever heard. Good beat, but the song lacks something that made earlier Beastie Boys music rock.
The lyrics are fine, my God its the Beastie Boys. That funky loop is cool too. Their rapping seems rushed or not really genuine...not FRESHHHH! I dont like the song itself...echh!!
<i>Now don't get us wrong 'cause we love America But that's no reason to get hysterica They're layin' on the syrup thick We ain't waffles we ain't havin' it</i> ugh...I disagree.
he says "whatup" dunk actually, I was glad that I met MCA. he is my favorite and the most spiritual beastie boy
