Iraq & Iran Lyrics

Little ditty 'bout Iraq & Iran

Two very ancient kingdoms growin' up near the Holy Land

Iraq it used to be a superpower

Known as Babylon, that's the scene of that big tower

Babylon was really strong but over time would taste defeat

Iran sittin' on the Iraqis' map

They had the Persians and the Medes

Iraqis they hated Iran but they were cut off in 539 B.C.

Babylon had fallen but what would Persia do about Greece

Say, uh

Oh, yeah, life goes on

Long after the threats of little nations

Oh, yeah, life goes on

Long after the best of civilizations

Are all gone

After this happened, the Greeks would fall to the Romans

Back in a hundred and forty-six B.C.

Well, then those Romans, they had a run of sitting pretty

That ended, badly, in the 5th Century

And as we said now

CHORUS

So when they talk about control

Look at Babylon, Persia, Greece and Rome

No longer sitting as strong as they can

Change can come around real soon, make us little again

CHORUS

Little ditty 'bout Iraq & Iran

You American kids do your best to understand

Revelation 11:15

And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
