The Kosovo musical controversy

Old news; so no idea why the Times picked it up this week. Winds of Change had covered it here in May. Anyway, the song was in my playlist, so I went back and listened to it today. And its as hilarious and timely as ever. If only it wasn't true!

Go listen. In case you can't, here are the lyrics.

Kosovo
(Parody of Kokomo by The Beach Boys)

Croatia, Albania somewhere near Romania
Its Euro and NATO, why the hell do we go
Pristina blew up a head for Macedonia
I’ll race ya
Somewhere far overseas
There’s a place called Kosovo
That’s where you don’t want to go
If you’re Albanian at all

Protecting Human Rights
Air strikes and firefights
And we'll be dropping our bombs
Wherever Serbian bad guys hide
Just up from Kosovo

Somalia, Grenada or rescue in Kuwait-a
We screwed ya Rwanda, wish we could have helped ya
Iraqi embargo that’s the way we hustle
Rules are why we’re helping out in Kosovo
We’ll kick some ass and then we'll see how it goes
And then we really don’t know
Good luck to Kosovo

Milo-se-vich
you sorry son of a bitch

Every time we go
To little places like Kosovo
We never really know
What happens after we go
Tough luck for Kosovo

Croatia Albania somewhere near Romania
Its Euro and NATO
Why the hell do we go?
Pristina, blew up a head for Macedonia
Rules are why we’re helping out in Kosovo
We’ll kick their ass and then we’ll see how it goes
And then we really don’t know
That sucks for Kosovo
Somalia, Grenada or rescuing Kuwait-a
We screwed ya Rwanda
Wish we could of helped ya
Iraqi embargo
How it ends we don’t know…
