I READ THE NEWS TODAY, OH BOY...

...one big hole in the peninsular

not good news today, my bloglets
appears the norf koreans have exploded a new-clear bomb
on this here little rabbit-shaped spit of land
which is way too close for comfort
couple of miles underground, fortunately
but that doesn't reassure your faithful fireseed too much
old kim jong ill playin' with fire, my seeds
that hot shampoo i was talking about before
right here on this here blogge
can't really blame the north koreans too much
they just doing what anyone else would do
backed into a corner as they are
by the 'international community'
(read pax america and its poodles, my seedlings)
what's the alternative for 'em if they don't go new-clear?
some good role models around at present, are there not?
iraq - ooh, yes please!
afghanistan - ooh, that'd be luvly, dear!
and they may not inhabit a big country
but they're tenacious people, the koreans
history shows that they're in it for the long-haul
pushed around by the chinese and japanese
who wanted to steal their land
nope - not ones to give up easily
'Oh, alright, George, we give in 'cos you don't wanna be our friend'
not likely, mister!
washington will turn into a ring of fire first
ok, so mr ill and chums are hardly a saintly regime
but who's in a position to engage with 'em?
(i'll give you three guesses)
who insists on struttin' around
like they took out the patent on virtue and altruism?
(i'll give you three guesses again)
who's stockpiled enough hot shampoo
to blow up the planet about six times
and resisted practically every attempt
to move in the opposite direction?
(three more guesses?)
ain't it just a little hypocritical, my seeds,
this outrage that's been expressed by the 'int'national community'?
well, fireseed would like to express his outrage
at these dudes who are so quick to cast the first stone
they got a lot of gall...
well, don't spose they gonna take a lot of notice of me
tony bland didnae take much notice last time
when i sent him a couple of tracks off 'mustard seed'
to number ten downer street
and asked him politely to keep the hell out of iraq...
'over the hills
across the desert
over the water
across the sky
over the oil wells
across the desert
into death and out of light
where the flowers grow no more
sponsor a war of mindless destruction
pointing your weapons
to search and destroy
blood on your hands
you steal their black gold
leave them to till
the poisonous soil
where the flowers grow no more...'
are you listening, tony?
TONY??
TOOOO-NNNNYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
