Story behind the song
After being less than satisfied with the rock and country versions, here's an acoustic swing version. What do you think?
Lyrics
Author: DeCristopher Guantanamo (Executive Privilege) Although you probably won't want to ski in shark infested waters We understand the waterboarding's fine Cause it's the place to go, Guantanamo Tucked down in the tropics by the bay So make yourself at home, suppress that urge to roam You won't believe how long you get to stay Do you like a little mystery? Then here's the place for you. Because the list of all the things they say you did Is not open to view So whether fast or slow, your facial hair can grow A foo man chu could really be the rage Except for just one thing, your cell phone will not ring Because it's not a cell, it's more a cage Imagine such a tranquil place, there is no need to hurry No family, no attorney, why should you ever worry Surely it's no sin to make Osama grin He thinks our Constitution isn't fair He sees our W heading for the loo To use the Bill of Rights to wipe his derriere Let's not get so crude, we're bordering on rude We really need to finish up this caper The president may use what all he wants to choose Instead of ordinary toilet paper (Break) Cause it's the place to go, Guantanamo Tucked down in the tropics by the bay So make yourself at home, suppress that urge to roam You won't believe how long you get to stay Although you probably won't want to ski in shark infested waters We understand the waterboarding's fine
