Talibans Favorite Comedian
Don't know whether
This is true or not
But i heard it through the grapevine
That i am the Taliban leader's
Favorite comedian
So much so they want me
To come entertain the troops
live in Afghanistan
All expenses paid
I get to stay in the penthouse cave
As much heroin as i can take
24 hour round the clock security
And they have personally
guaranteed me
Even if i bomb it doesn't matter
Either way the show will still end
with me going out with a bang
To a standing ovation baying
crowd
Thinking wow didn't think much
of his joke's or material
But what a cracking ending
Now that's funny
Encore
But this time please with even
more explosives than you used
before
May as well use what the fleeing
infidel troops left behind
Waste not want not
They aren't coming back any
time soon to reclaim it are they
Otherwise we wouldn't be here
in the 1st place would we
And they have the audacity
to say we don't have a sense
of humour
We'll joke's on them look who's
laughing now
We got everything we ever
wanted
Only this time we didn't even
have to fight you for it
You simply handed the key's
back over to us
No strings attached
Apart from good luck cleaning
up our mess
Your welcome to it
You see we always have the last
laugh and save the best till last
And you can take that to the body bank
