The music is alright but the lyrics are good. I think the jews do have one ally in the united states, however.

Well, the neighborhood bully, he's just one man,
His enemies say he's on their land.
They got him outnumbered about a million to one,
He got no place to escape to, no place to run.
He's the neighborhood bully.

The neighborhood bully just lives to survive,
He's criticized and condemned for being alive.
He's not supposed to fight back, he's supposed to have thick skin,
He's supposed to lay down and die when his door is kicked in.
He's the neighborhood bully.

The neighborhood bully been driven out of every land,
He's wandered the earth an exiled man.
Seen his family scattered, his people hounded and torn,
He's always on trial for just being born.
He's the neighborhood bully.

Well, he knocked out a lynch mob, he was criticized,
Old women condemned him, said he should apologize.
Then he destroyed a bomb factory, nobody was glad.
The bombs were meant for him.
He was supposed to feel bad.
He's the neighborhood bully.

Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim
That he'll live by the rules that the world makes for him,
'Cause there's a noose at his neck and a gun at his back
And a license to kill him is given out to every maniac.
He's the neighborhood bully.

He got no allies to really speak of.
What he gets he must pay for, he don't get it out of love.
He buys obsolete weapons and he won't be denied
But no one sends flesh and blood to fight by his side.
He's the neighborhood bully.

Well, he's surrounded by pacifists who all want peace,
They pray for it nightly that the bloodshed must cease.
Now, they wouldn't hurt a fly.
To hurt one they would weep.
They lay and they wait for this bully to fall asleep.
He's the neighborhood bully.

Every empire that's enslaved him is gone,
Egypt and Rome, even the great Babylon.
He's made a garden of paradise in the desert sand,
In bed with nobody, under no one's command.
He's the neighborhood bully.

Now his holiest books have been trampled upon,
No contract he signed was worth what it was written on.
He took the crumbs of the world and he turned it into wealth,
Took sickness and disease and he turned it into health.
He's the neighborhood bully.

What's anybody indebted to him for?
Nothin', they say.
He just likes to cause war.
Pride and prejudice and superstition indeed,
They wait for this bully like a dog waits to feed.
He's the neighborhood bully.

What has he done to wear so many scars?
Does he change the course of rivers?
Does he pollute the moon and stars?
Neighborhood bully, standing on the hill,
Running out the clock, time standing still,
Neighborhood bully.

"How many roads must a man walk down?"
"42."

Er ... I meant...

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

I like this one

Quote: Creeping Death
Metallica
(Ride The Lightning)

Slaves.
Hebrews born to serve, to the pharaoh.
Heed.
To his every word, live in fear.
Faith.
Of the unknown, the deliverer.
Wait.
Something must be done, four hundred years.

So let it be written.
So let it be done.
I'm sent here by the chosen one.
So let it be written.
So let it be done.
To kill the first born pharaoh son.
I'm creeping death.

Now.
Let my people go, land of goshen.
Go.
I will be with thee, bush of fire.
Blood.
Running red and strong, down the nile.
Plague.
Darkness three day long, hail to fire.

So let it be written.
So let it be done.
I'm sent here by the chosen one.
So let it be written.
So let it be done.
To kill the first born pharaoh son.
I'm creeping death.

Die by my hand.
I creep across the land.
Killing first born man.
Die by my hand.
I creep across the land.
Killing first born man.

I.
Rule the midnight air the destroyer.
Born.
I shall soon be there, deadly mass.
I.
Creep the steps and floor final darkness.
Blood.
Lambs blood painted doors, I shall pass.

So let it be written.
So let it be done.
I'm sent here by the chosen one.
So let it be written.
So let it be done.
To kill the first born pharaoh son.
I'm creeping death

And yes I am proud that we are an ally of Israel,and to hell with the whole world if they don't like it.

Why should he be? It's his song he can write about whatever he feels like writing about.
