Album:The tide is turning

theTideIsTurning large
If you`re a Sheikh who is a mover
or fundamentally a groover
Get with the brothers on maneuver
Comin at you all the way from Cuba
Not the Cuba of Havanas
Where the Presidente is bananas
But the Cuba that is free, lookin over the sea
to the Florida Key ( to democracy )
At Guantanamo Bay, it`s the U.S. of A.,
Shackle Shuffle every day at the Club X Ray
Wear a chain on your wrist, do the Islamacist
Bossa Nova with a twist, and it goes like this:
Put your hands on your head (Reach!)
And Shackle Shuffle to the left (Move!)
You do the monkey squat and then (Squat!)
You Shackle Shuffle back again
Bow in prayer to the East (Pray!)
Down on your belly like a beast (Beast!)
You`re never gonna be released (Peace!)
Till the day you`re deceased
No time for sleeping at Club X Ray
No time for chilling out the next day
Although we wouldn`t call it torture
We`re gonna sweat you now we`ve caught ya.
At first you feel humiliated
Cos every move is regulated
But as the beat interrogates you
Join the club that liberates!
At Guantanamo Bay, it`s the U.S. of A.,
Shackle Shuffle every day at the Club X Ray
At Guantanamo Bay, it`s the U.S. of A.,
Shackle Shuffle every day at the Club X Ray
Put your hands on your head (Reach!)
And Shackle Shuffle to the left (Move!)
You do the monkey squat and then (Squat!)
You Shackle Shuffle back again
Bow in prayer to the East (Pray!)
Down on your belly like a beast (Beast!)
You`re never gonna be released (Peace!)
Till the day you`re deceased
It isn`t really so important
whether you came dressed as a combatant
Or just a towel headed farmer
who had a cousin called Osama
We`re not conventional believers
No busy bodies from Geneva
If you`re a friend of Tora Bora
There`s no restriction on the door

All you`ll need to get in is the beard on your chin,
An indefinite stay and you don`t have to pay
At Guantanamo Bay, it`s the U.S. of A.,
Shackle Shuffle every day at the Club X Ray
Put your hands on your head (Reach!)
And Shackle Shuffle to the left (Move!)
You do the monkey squat and then (Squat!)
You Shackle Shuffle back again
Bow in prayer to the East (Pray!)
Down on your belly like a beast (Beast!)
You`re never gonna be released (Peace!)
Till the day you`re deceased
At this exclusive little venue
Halal is always on the menu
Free Toiletries, and what is more an
Edition of Gideon`s Koran
O heck did I forget to mention
We`re busy building an extension
Where every wish will be respected
As you are lethally injected!

We`d a pipeline to lay, but you got in the way,
So we sacrificed you to the needs of the few
In the heat of High Noon you will dance to our tune
An example to all to obey Unocal,
See the prisoners kneel, with no right of appeal,
In the land that is free free to take liberty
Till the sea starts to boil, till we run out of oil
In Guantanamo Bay... Hey Hey!
At the Club X Ray! (Shackle Shuffle to the right) Cha cha cha.
