	Story Behind the Song Passionate, biting, dark but uptempo satire of the third member of the Axis of Evil, the mullah tyrants of Iran (Persia). Lyrics BAD MULLAH BLUES (Iran Blues) King of Kings thought he was the man, So he cracked down hard on old Iran. Revolution followed, and as it can do, They went from hopeful misery to totally blue. Some mean ayatollahs they grabbed that land, And wrapped themselves around it like iron bands, Murdered their opponents, launced terrorist too, And grabbed the U.S. embassy, held hostage 52. chorus: They got the bad mullah blues. Terrible news. Power-mad clergy, in commissar shoes. Nothin' to live for, nothin' to lose. Them good old Persians got the bad mullah blues. They went to war with the Beast of Baghdad, Usin' 12-year-old soldiers in rifles and rags. Made 'em pretty promises about the afterlife, Then ground 'em up like hamburger in 8 years of strife. They crushed their economy, 'n grabbed all the gold. No future for the young, no rest for the old. No love for the livin', no peace for the soul. And it's prison if you drink a beer or rock 'n roll! (chorus) (Hooah!) P.C. gestapo on every block. Be careful what you think and what you talk. Phony elections they never really lose. And a phony legislature with nothin' to do. Ancient Persia, now known as Iran, Civilized way back at the dawn of man, With wealth and culture and colorful minds. But they done stripped those memories blind! (chorus) (Hooah!) (scat) Now God created each man and woman. And He gave 'em a natural right to freedom. Every religion knows that it's true. So if somebody denies it he's a lyin' to you. chorus: Got the bad mullah blues. Terrible news. Power-mad clergy in commissar shoes. What will they live for? What will they choose? Them good old Persians got the bad mullah blues. Hooah! Copyright 2002, 2003 Eric Free, All Rights Reserved.
