(instrumental intro)
When I look back, boy, I must have been green.
Killing in Sabra, and Shatila, blood streamed.
Looking for that Yasser, he was hiding so fine.
When he left Lebanon, he was a target of mine.
I said, "Take that, Arafat!"
Better stuck in those ruins.
Never quit those bombs and his terror ways.
And, him, hortizonal will do me good.
I said, "Take that, Arafat."
Living in the rubble, just where it's at.
You keep trying to find working telephone lines.
You keep trying to hide memos, prove that you are a swine.
(instrumental break)
Well I read reports and I read Time magazine
About those high explosives bringing down Jenin.
And all the folks back home well, said I was a fool.
They said can't believe reprisals are the Golden Rule.
I said, "Take that, Arafat!"
Better stuck in those ruins.
Never quit those bombs and his terror ways.
And, him, hortizonal will do me good.
I said, take that, Arafat.
Living in the rubble, just where it's at.
You keep trying to find working telephone lines.
You keep trying to hide memos, prove that you are a swine.
(instrumental break)
I said find that Yasser, he's gotta buy the farm.
Blowing up my cities, boy, is going to break my heart.
But how can he stay, when he won't say no?
How can I stop when my dead say go?
I said, "Take that, Arafat!"
Better stuck in those ruins.
Never quit his bombs and his terror ways.
And, him, hortizonal will do me good.
I said, take that, Arafat.
Living in the rubble, just where it's at.
You keep trying to find working telephone lines.
You keep trying to hide memos, prove that you are a swine.
Take that, Arafat, take that, Arafat, take that, wooo…
