Philip Glass Jahweh And Allah Battle Lyrics

Jaweh and Allah Battle Jaweh with Atom Bomb Allah cuts throat of Infidels Jaweh’s armies beat down neighboring tribes Will Red Sea waters close & drown the armies of Allah? Both Gods Terrible! Awful Jaweh Allah! Both hook-nosed gods, circumcised. Jaweh Allah which unreal? Which stronger Illusion? Which stronger Army? Which gives most frightening command? What God maintain egohood in Eden? Which be Nameless? Which enter Abyss of Light? Yea let Tribes wander to tin camps at cold Europe’s walls? Yea let the Million sit in desert shantytowns with tin cups? I’m a Jew cries Allah! Buddha circumcised! Snake sneaking an apple to Eden— Alien, Wanderer, Caller of the Great Call! What Prophet born on this ground bound me Eternal to Palestine circled by Armies tanks, droning bomber motors, radar electric computers? HITLER AND STALIN SENT ME HERE! WEIZMANN & BEN-GURION SENT ME HERE! NASSER AND SADAT SENT ME HERE! ARAFAT SENT ME HERE! MESSIAH SENT ME HERE! GOD SENT ME HERE! Buchenwald sent me here! Vietnam sent me here! Mylai sent me here! Lidice sent me here! My mother sent me here! I WAS BORN HERE IN ISRAEL, Arab circumcised, my father had a coffee shop in Jerusalem One day the Soldiers came & made me to walk down road my hands up walk away leave my house business forever The Israelis sent me here! Solomon’s Temple the Pyramids & Sphinx sent me here! JAWEH AND ALLAH SENT ME HERE! The Americans & Russians are sending bombing planes tanks Chinese Egyptians Syrians help me battle for my righteous house my soul’s dirt Spirit’s Nation body’s boundaries & Self’s territory my Zionist homeland my Palestine inheritance The Capitalist Communist & Third World Peoples’ Republics Dictatorships Police States Socialism & Democracies are all sending Deadly Weapons to our aid! We shall triumph over the Enemy! This hill Golgotha never forget, never relinquish inhabit thru Eternity under Allah Christ Yaweh forever one God
