Holy Taliban?

Holy Taliban

They're murdering women for mythical gods
just picking up sticks and stones
and burying women right up to their breasts
and bouncing rocks and breaking bones
and smashing their skulls - eventually

Barbarians praying and crying to gods
from towers lower than they
and hiding their women from toenail to hair
and keeping sight and light away
and smashing their will - eventually

They're carrying guns for their mythical gods
shooting them up in the air
Illiterates versed in no language but hate
led by the nose from here to there
then settling down - eventually

to murdering women for mythical gods
just gathering sticks and stones
and burying women right up to their breasts
and bouncing rocks and breaking bones
and smashing their skulls - eventually

..and I'm a woman

They're murdering men for their mythical gods
just gathering sticks and stones
and burying men right up to their breasts
and bouncing rocks and breaking bones
and smashing their skulls - eventually
..and you're a man
