Free Cee Is There a Fanatic In the Attic

IS THERE A FANATIC IN THE ATTIC? 

There sat they, satisfied
satiated knowing hundreds of souls had died
there sat they midst flat bread and Allah's wine
making plans that would send shivers up my spine

missals, mortars, murder and mayhem
we, always vigilant and leery of them
a man walks into a large train station
and for this he gains whores in Heaven and fascination

face the west for that's whereupon their eyes remain
never certain if, under their turbans, there's a brain
the youthful, the elderly, the old and the new
one must consider that which a fanatic extremest will do

Mrs. Jones in America fears Mrs. Al Newasrah' Muslim son
because each one is fearful because each one has a gun
and so they face each other on an arid land each grimace a sign
because both have plans that would send shivers up my spine
