LOOK WHAT THEY DONE TO MY HEAD, MA

by David Lefkowitz

Look what they done to my head, ma.
Look what they done to my head.
Well, they hacked it off with a giant sword
And left me lying dead, ma.
Look what they done to my head.

They put my face on the `net.
They put my face on the `net.
We’ve changed regimes, but it don’t seem to make no difference yet, ma.
They put my face on the `net.

They made me read the Koran, man.
They made me read the Koran.
But I crossed my fingers and bit my tongue
And cursed the name Allah, ma,
So now I’m buried in dung.

Oh, look what they done to my head, ma.
Look what they done to my head.
Well, they tied it up in a plastic bag before I was even dead, ma.
Look what they done to my head.

One days these Muslims will pay, ma
One day these Arabs will pay.
They’ll pay in blood and burning flesh for what they done today, ma.
One day these scumbags will pay.

Oh, look what they done to your son, ma.
Look what they done to your son.
Well, they slaughtered me and martyred me
And now my song is done, ma
Look what they done: now I’m gone.
