SONG FOR OMAR KHADR

TUNE: Coming round the mountain

Cheers! Torture isn’t torture any more
Gitmo ‘s changed  or so the Yankees swore
There’s a  newer kind of Justice But the same old thrust is
To “Frequent Fly” the bastards til they roar.

A Canadian unlucky to be  brought
To Gitmo will discover it’s still frought
With tactics that are quirky Thanks to guidelines that are murky
Get ‘em talking” is the Mantra that is taught

That young Canuck  need never fear the worst
That he will find himself among the cursed
Canadian humanity’s his shield  from this insanity
Alas with Harper this  has been reversed.

In Gitmo all will be humane and just      
Interrogators must  enjoy our trust
If some mistakes are made, that’s the  earmark of the trade
And if  terrorists are “softened” – Why the fuss!
