Saddam Hussein (Chumbawumba Parody)

Weird Al Yankovic · Other Songs - Weird Al Yankovic

We should kill him

would be thrillin'

just to kill him

Let's hunt him down

and shoot him in the head

Let's beat the crap out of Saddam

Let's hunt him down

and shoot him in the head

and bomb Iraq into the ground

Let's hunt him down

and shoot him in the head

Let's beat the crap out of Saddam

Let's hunt him down

and shoot him in the head

and bomb Iraq into the ground

Don't screw with the USA

Don't screw with the USA

Now if he does attack

We're gonna drop a stack

All miscles on Iraq

And get him off my back

And if he won't let us up for al the surfgas,

the US army is gonna kick him in the ass

We should destroy, should destroy, that Iraqi boy

Let's hunt him down

and shoot him in the head

Let's beat the crap out of Saddam

Let's hunt him down

and shoot him in the head

and bomb Iraq into the ground

Let's hunt him down

and shoot him in the head

Let's beat the crap out of Saddam

Let's hunt him down

and shoot him in the head

and bomb Iraq into the ground

Saddam Hussein (Chumbawumba Parody)

Weird Al Yankovic's 'Saddam Hussein (Chumbawumba Parody)' is a satirical musical work that reimagines the iconic riff of 'Rebel Yell' with lyrics mocking the former Iraqi leader. Released as a standalone single outside of his major studio albums, the track exemplifies Yankovic's signature style of blending pop sensibilities with political commentary and absurdity. By adapting the melody of a well-known rock anthem, the song highlights his ability to create humorous parodies that resonate with audiences while critiquing global events. The recording stands as a testament to his career-long practice of transforming existing music into new, witty narratives without relying on traditional album structures.
