The NY Post informs us that the Islamist bomber who planned to bomb the subway station in August 2004 at the Big Apple's Herald Square (where Macy's is, for out-of-towners), told his two co-conspirators that he could not play courier for the bomb run without first asking...mom. (You mean, not pop, Imam Ali Baba or Allah?) So, at least, the defendant has testified at his terror conspiracy trial in Brooklyn. Time then, for a new version of the Shirelles' huge 1961 du-wop hit, Mama Said, don't you think?
Mama Said: "Go Bomb It!"
(apologies to authors of the original lyrics to Mama Said)
Mama said they'll be jobs like this
They'll be jobs like this
My mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said
We'll jihad like this
We'll jihad like this
My mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
I went "casing" the other day
Every detail looked fine
A couple of cops stood in my way
And arrested me for crime
Mama said they'll be trials like this
They'll be trials like this
My mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said juries don't like this
Juries don't like this
My mama said
My eyes were wide open
But all that I see is
Jail time approachin'
For my two pals and me
But I don't worry 'cause
Mama said they'll be crimes like this
We'd do time like this
My mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said infidels will die
While in cell, sit I
My mama said
And then she said someone will look at me
Like I looked at the station that day
And then I might find
Suicide I mightn't mind
So I don't worry, 'cause
Mama said jihads go amiss
Jihads go amiss
My mama said
(Mama said, mama said)
Mama said "Allah gives us bliss!"
"Allah gives us bliss!"
My mama said
Mama said, mama said, said
"Don't worry!"
Mama said, mama said, said
"Imam is here!"
Mama, Imam an' me cheer!
