The Offspring - Tehran, from their album "The Offspring"

Lyrics -

In your plane in the blue sky

You roam again

Words that echo in your mind

Make your heart beat faster

This is no Vietnam

We will win Iran

The President said let it ride (ride)

Islam be damned

Make your last stand

In Tehran

Warrior, the time bomb's

About to go

What will you feel

Will you ever wonder

If the man that's in your sights

Ever kissed his girl goodbye

The Captain said kill or die (die)

Islam be damned

Make your last stand

In Tehran

Great Satan (repeat)

Our flags our burning (repeat)

Soon America may find

Its young men in the sand

Where there casualty

Is just a number

In Iran

The President said let it ride (ride)

You will be damned

Make your last stand

In Tehran

Do they ever play anything from the first album live? I rather like this "tehran" and "elders" yet anything that has them doing a live performance for those songs is like from 1990.. At least from what I can find on Youtube.

I dislike how radio stations play "self esteem" and "come and and play" ad nauseam, while tracks like this sit on the shelf.

I also think it's "our flags are burning"as when people in other countries burn the flags of the agressor

And here it is more than two decades later and we are still at war with them. Such bullshit.

i think you need to cut them a tad of slack on that. they were mostly university student aged at this point, operating completely independently, trying to put together an anti-war song and ultimately clearly botched that rather important distinction. there's a baghdad version that utilizes the arabic theme more appropriately, though - actually created for the _first_ gulf war. regardless, you shouldn't be hating all the arabs, who didn't have much say in the iran-iraq conflict.

To be fair, this song is more of a criticism on America's policies abroad than it is on Iran. It speaks of America's eagerness to involve itself in conflicts that it has no place being involved in while also throwing lives away on both sides for very little benefit. This time will be different! It's not Vietnam this time!

I'm also from Iran, and I admit that Iran is a very fucked up place. I'm a pacifist though; I'm against any kind of violence and hatred. I love The Offspring anyway.

Iraqi's are Arabized but not Arabs. They really wish they were Arabs, but they aren't. Iraqis are Babylonians.

cuz iraq's arabs killed a lot of persians in war, and every body in the world think we are arabs , and we are NOT! we are persians , our real religion is Zartosht and mitraism, we have totally a different culture and it should not be mixed with arabic things
