[ARCHIVED THREAD] - My son's BATTLE HYMn--funny

My son just wrote this. He thinks the US Army should sing it as they march into Afganistan.

[b]I'd like to teach the world to bomb,
in per-fect harmony.
And pump Bin Laden full of lead,
with 30 rounds of 2-2-3.

I'd love to show them that we are,
and for-ever will be free.
And when we nuke 'em it will say
"We hate you dumb commies!"[/b]

Suggestions to make it scan properly and sound somewhat rational, by line number:

4) "with lots of 2-2-3"
6) "and always will be free"
7) we won't use nukes, just bombs;
"we" would fit better than "it"
8) they aren't Communists.

Damn man, I didn't know we expected creative kids to be up on their politics and war fighting tactics.

I, for one, enjoyed it! Encourage that kids creativity!

Hey, if it isn't 5-7-5, it isn't haiku.
You don't got no peppers, you ain't got no chili.

No insult intended, just offering editing suggestions to fit the music.
As one of today's youth, he can always just tell me, "piss off, grandpa!" [:D]
