Kidnap Me!
On the San Francisco cable car,
or just about anywhere!
You, so blessed with that unique,
wavy Middle Eastern hair.
That kiss, so moist and rich, like
delicious Baklava.
Hold me yet closer and kidnap me
to your Casbah!
Your kindness, overwhelming and
so everlasting, entrancing.
As your eyes glowing in mine, while Greek
circle dancing.
You are embedded in my soul for all days
and for all time.
I am yours, my sweet, and you~ are so
mmutably, mine!

My grandma told your grandma
Don't you set your head on fire
Come with me to the Casbah
Stay out of the funeral pyre
Talkin' 'bout shotguns, shotguns,
Blasting us away
Jockamo's killing our loved ones
Jockamo nee nah nay.

ROCK THE CASBAH
What mystery of life runs through the mind,
exchanged, such glances, never meant to share,
to raise our heartbeats, if one's there to find,
and if we have the will to take the dare.
To rock the Casbah, is this sin a crime?
Or just beginnings for the world in need
Of change to Westernize all life and time,
to bury burqas where there is no seed?
To see and fall in love through satin thin,
how many have there been to die alone,
and how much beauty seen becomes a sin,
to men who have a heart of solid stone?
Tunisian girl, the world is now ... for you,
So Rock the Casbah, like it's coming true!
