Just Because

(to the tune of Running Bear loved little White Dove)

On the edge of the Tigris
Stood Abdullah Mohammed
Young shiite brave
On the other side of the Tigris
Stood his burka clad suni maid
Little Fatima was her name
Such an ugly sight to see
 But their tribes fought with each other
So their love could never be

Abdullah Mohammed loved Little Fatima
With love big as an IED
Abdullah Mohammed loved Little Fatima
Cause under her burka he could not see

He couldn't swim the raging river '
Cause the river was too wide
He couldn't reach the Little Fatima
Waiting on the other side
In the moonlight she could see him
Shooting his AK in the air
Her little heart was beating faster
Waiting for her Taliban brave

Abdullah Mohammed loved Little Fatima
With love big as an IED
Abdullah Mohammed loved Little Fatima
Cause under her burka he could not see

Abdullah Mohammed dove in the water
Little Fatima did the same
And they swam out to each other
Through the swirling stream they came
As their hands touched and their lips met
The soggy bomb vest pulled them down
Now he's got seventy two virgins
And she's no where around.

Abdullah Mohammed loved Little Fatima
With love big as an IED
Abdullah Mohammed loved Little Fatima
Cause under her burka he could not see.
