Within striking distance from Ground Zero sits a smoldering international cauldron The United "Abominations" as it were Forged to prevent wars and froze in the face of disaster And stood silent while terrorization took hostage of the world In a mire of hypocrisy, the UN ignored sex crimes by its blue helmets And enables terrorism, so, in the end, it's failed And the UN is where our so-called friends get to stab us in the back And we pay twenty-two percent of their tab to host our enemies here at home Ambassadors from countries otherwise known as a catastrophe Enjoy diplomatic immunity living in Manhattan While their children are turned into prostitutes It's a complete and utter disgrace, a blot on the face of humanity And they get away with it Poverty in their kitchens Held hostage by oil-for-food Yet their own plates are full of the fat of their lands There's no blood on their hands, right Ko-Jo? They promised to tell the truth Without leaving a fingerprint They will lose the U.N. one way or another The victim, I fear, will be us, sisters and brothers The U.N. is right; you can't be any more "un" Than you are right now; the U.N. is undone Another mushroom cloud, another smoking gun The threat is real, the Locust King has come Don't tell me the truth; I don't like what they've done It's payback time at the United Abominations A grave and gathering danger The decision to attack Based on secret intelligence; it'll take years I fear to undo the failings in Iraq You may bury the bodies But you can't bury the crimes Only fools stand up and really lay down their arms No, not me - not when death lasts forever The U.N. is right; you can't be any more "un" Than you are right now; the U.N. is undone Another mushroom cloud, another smoking gun The threat is real, the Locust King has come Don't tell me the truth; I don't like what they've done It's payback time... The U.N. is right; you can't be any more "un" Than you are right now; the U.N. is undone Another mushroom cloud, another smoking gun The threat is real, the Locust King has come The U.N. is right; you can't be any more "un" Than you are right now; the U.N. is undone Another mushroom cloud, another smoking gun The threat is real, the Locust King has come Don't tell me the truth; I don't like what they've done It's payback time at the United Abominations NATO invaded Yugoslavia to end ethnic cleansing, there was no U.N. The U.S. invaded Afghanistan after 9/11, there was no U.N. Saddam Hussein violated seventeen U.N. resolutions The U.N. was asked to join the war in Iraq The U.S. invaded, there was no U.N. Libya bombed a discotheque in Berlin killing Americans, there was no U.N. And Iran funds Hamas and attacked the U.S. in the seventies, there was no U.N. Facing war without end, looking into the future, there was no more U.N.
