We are the Caliphate Restoration Society

Soccer Dad just reminded me of a new stage-production, Jihad the Musical, which is beginning to receive some attention in the blogosphere. It so happens that I have uncovered an early draft of the show and that it was evidently originally planned as a rock-musical. Here is the original theme-song:

We are the Caliphate Restoration Society
We have a centrifuge that's causing you some anxiety
We are the Andalus Reclamation society
We love bomb belts and big explosions of piety

Protecting the Ummah from Danish cartoons
Enforcing the dress-code with all of our goons
For so many moons

We are the Infidel Subjugation Fraternity
Allah save Tony Judt and good old Uri Avnery
We are the jizya tax-collection cooperative
We saw Paradise Now and found it to be evocative

We are the PLF Appreciation Dominion
Allah save Robert Fisk and friends of Sami Al-Arian
We read Sayyid Kutb just to ward off insomnia
We love OBL and Al-Gama'a al-Islamiyya
We pass security with bombs in the body cavity
We love mangled flaps, pressureless cabins, and gravity

Protecting the Ummah from Danish cartoons
Enforcing the dress-code with all of our goons
For so many moons

Allah save Tony Judt!
