Story Behind the Song
Little Kissingers: About a Viet Nam War Veteran who is having problems with his main squeeze. It's always compromise but he has difficulty describing it in non-Viet Name terms.
Roll A Bob Marley Dub: The Dub or "Re-Mix" version of our classic reggae song "Roll A Bob Marley" (The reason they are coupled together is because the Dub was released as a "ghost" or hidden track).
Lyrics
Little Kissingers
Diplomacy is on my mind,
And then you say you don't have the time,
When you put my love on hold,
I swear I'll never speak to you, yeah.
But when I look into your eyes,
All I hear is compromise,
The little voices in my head,
Set me up just to knock me down.
CHORUS: Little Kissingers,
Little Kissingers, Little Kissingers
Persuading me to try it again.
Unilateral negotiations,
Is the source of my frustration,
When you don't hear a word I say,
Why should I try anyway?
I cannot run, I cannot hide,
No peace with honor hurts my pride,
I'm just another refugee on the rooftop,
ANd theres no more room CHORUS
Break: All day long, between you and me,
Its A DMZ,(1)
I'm waving my white flag,
my white flag,
But you're not trusting me,
You're really messing baby,
With my PTSD,(2)
Are you too deaf to hear,
Are you too deaf to see?
Repeat first half of second verse
Repeat chorus
Note:
(1)DMZ is Demilitarized Zone
(2)PTSD is Post Trumatic Stress Disorder
