TERRORISM TREE
Oompah Loompah
Living off someone else’s dream
Stealing off someone else’s tree
I’m watching you as I start to wake up
Watching you as you’re causing the strife
Watching you as you cut the cake up
Watching you sharpen your knife
I’m gonna set you all free
Cut down your terrorism tree
Oompah Loompah
I killed ten thousand moslems
I'll kill ten thousand more
Then I’ll ignore Kyoto
Then I’ll ignore UN law
51 rogue states working for me
Am I the top of the terrorism tree
51 rogue states working for me
Am I the top of the terrorism tree
Oompah Loompah stick it up your jumper
Bush top terrorism junta
Oompah Loompah stick it up your jumper
Trump top terrorism junta
Terrorism junta
There's an Axis of our evil way
From Kiev to downtown LA
Oompah Loompah diddy eye ay.
Hearts and minds have gone astray
Bullet in the hand's worth two in the bush
Maybe it’s time for the final push
Fe Fi Foe Fum
I smell oil in the barrel of a gun
Fe Fi Foe Fum
I smell oil in the barrel of your gun
Of your gun
Oil, boil, barrel of gun
Oil, boil, barrel of gun
Oil, boil, barrel of gun
Oil, boil, barrel of gun
Living off someone else’s dream
Stealing off someone else’s tree
I’m watching you as you try to make up
Watching you as you're casting your lies
I’m watching you as you do the fake up
Watching you as another sun dies
Oil like a boil with a fearless face
Another lie to lubricate our lazy race
Oil like a boil with a fearless face
Another lie to lubricate our lazy race
Fifty One
Oil, boil, fearless face
Another lie lubricates our lazy race
Fe Fi Foe Fum
Oil in the barrel, of a gun
51 rogue states 51 rogue states

Who terrorises who? Are governments and presidents never guilty of terrorist activity? Do the voters aid and abet them? The sinking of the Rainbow Warrior was an act of terrorism by the French. Does Trump terrorise the folk of standing rock? Are we all therefore members of a global terrorist network? Every time we buy a gallon of diesel for the truck. Every time we finance the oil war. How many States of America? Fifty plus one. Fifty plus whoever happens to be greasing one’s palms at the time. 51 rogue states.
NOTES
Some audiences will request a favourite song from the back catalogue. This works ok for some songs but sometimes it’s a bit naff where things have developed significantly.
Terrorism Tree was first penned when Bush#2 was US president. It started as a silly play on words as Bush vs Tree. All sorts of lyrics went through the wringer to do with Bush wanting to be a tree when he grew up and so on. The following catchphrase persisted for a while:
“Terrorism Bush, Terrorism Tree
Both of those are the same you see”
This exists in the Anarchetypean -
We always had a few “oompah-
Bush defined the Axis of Evil. I reckoned that a better definition/alignment might be from Ukraine across Europe and the big pond to the USA whence it carves itself across the states to LA.
The Kyoto Protocol was current and things were getting a bit slack. We now have the “Paris Agreement”. The Kyoto Lyric has been retained as a generic term for ignored environmental protection agreements/legislation/protocol as is likely to be ongoing.
So Trump is showing similar ignorance and the protection afforded to “federally protected lands” is under threat.
So the lyrics remain intact and are changed only for the inclusion of Trump whilst reducing Bush to a single mention.
TRIVIA
The phrase “Terrorism Tree” has now found its way into other authors’ works.
