The Bombity Bomb Septille, Or, A Failure of the Imagination

Born 1946


Composed for the Occasion of the 2006 Israel-Lebanon Conflict Grand Bal

Bombity bombity bomb bomb bomb
Bombity bomb since left the womb

Bombity bombity bomb bomb bomb
Bombity bomb can't get alomb

Bombity bombity bomb bomb bomb
Bombity bomb is this like domb

Bombity bombity bomb bomb bomb
Bombity bomb to win ere lomb

Bombity bombity bomb bomb bomb
Bombity bomb we'll raise a tomb

Bombity bombity bomb bomb bomb
Bombity bomb so raise a thomb

Bombity bombity bomb bomb bomb
Bombity bomb and don't be somb

Er when the cedars
         burn to black
When milk and honey
         melt to mud
Step out and dance
         the rhythms bright
And a bombity bomb to you

(All bow, smile avec reproches, and repeat)
