iowaska – war weary widows كلمات اغاني

[poem]
carnage created
while leaders debated
the fate of a nation
regeneration

war-weary widows
wondering why
why western destruction
rained from the sky

why fat western armies
want them to die
just war-weary widows
wondering why

they’ve bombed all the bridges
burnt-out their homes
there are scars on the landscape
nature once roamed

hostage takers
in the guise of peacemakers
homewrecking heroes, tortured souls
following orders, achieving goals

one stripe, two stripes
three stripes, four
the more on your arm
the more died at war

and now, under instruction
you’ve returned to your crime
and expect war-weary widows
to welcome you this time

while they watch you rebuild
the havoc you’ve wreaked
the leaders continue
their political speak

spun-out rhymes
riddled with rot
people still dying from crimes
they forgot

wounds to remind them
war lies behind them
empty chairs stair
where death came to call

an orphan, a widow
a refugee
all of them victims
one and all

war-weary widows
victims of war
war-weary widows
hostage wh-r-s

war-weary widows
weep for their dead
stained and scarred
from the blood that’s been shed

war-weary widows
hostage wh-r-s
war-weary widows
can’t take any more

raped by your armies
robbed of respect
scarred by your presence
you make them feel sick

you think rebuilding bridges
redeems your crimes
but your still just an army
behind enemy lines

peacemaker, oath-taker
political promise-breaker
keep your b-ttons nice and clean
to wipe away what they have seen

keep your b-ttons nice and clean
and wipe away what they have seen

[reading from the women’s history of the world]
in a private ceremony of women, the traditional female pract-tioner or “circ-mcisor”, chanting “allah is great and mohammad is his prophet: may allah keep away all evils,” operates on a girl child anywhere between the ages of five and eight, with a sharpened stone, iron blade, or piece of gl-ss. in the first stage, the whole of the cl-toris and its sheath are cut away, then the l-b– minora are scr-ped off, followed by most of the inside flesh of the l-b– majora. the flaps of skin that remain are then pulled together and pinned with thorns, thus obliterating the v-g-n-l opening except for a very small aperture kept open with a minute splint of wood or… reed, to allow for the p-ssage of urine and menstrual blood. as the work proceeds the mother and other female guests “verify” the work, putting their fingers into the wound, along with earth and ashes used to staunch the bleeding. when it is over the girl’s legs are tied together from hip to ankle for 40 days, to insure that the st-tched skin heals together and will not reopen. throughout all this, the girl is held down by her female relatives, and is fully conscious
