In the beginning
We could hang with the dude
But it's been too much of nothing
Of that stank attitude
Now they curse your name
And there's a bounty on your face
It's your own fault daddy
Godwhacker's on the case
We track your almighty ass
Through seven heaven-worlds
Me, Slinky Redfoot
And our trusty angel-girls
And when the stars bleed out
That be the fever of the chase
You better get gone poppie
Godwhacker's on the case
Be very very quiet
Clock everything you see
Little things might matter later
At the start of the end of history
Climb up the glacier
Across bridges of light
We sniff you, Big Tiger
In the forest of the night
Cause there's no escape
From the Rajahs of Erase
You better run run run
Godwhacker's on the case
Be very very quiet
Clock everything you see
Little things might matter later
At the start of the end of history
Yes we are the Godwhackers
Who rip and chop and slice
For crimes beyond imagining
It's time to pay the price
You better step back son
Give the man some whackin' space
You know this might get messy
Godwhacker's on the case
We could hang with the dude
But it's been too much of nothing
Of that stank attitude
Now they curse your name
And there's a bounty on your face
It's your own fault daddy
Godwhacker's on the case
We track your almighty ass
Through seven heaven-worlds
Me, Slinky Redfoot
And our trusty angel-girls
And when the stars bleed out
That be the fever of the chase
You better get gone poppie
Godwhacker's on the case
Be very very quiet
Clock everything you see
Little things might matter later
At the start of the end of history
Climb up the glacier
Across bridges of light
We sniff you, Big Tiger
In the forest of the night
Cause there's no escape
From the Rajahs of Erase
You better run run run
Godwhacker's on the case
Be very very quiet
Clock everything you see
Little things might matter later
At the start of the end of history
Yes we are the Godwhackers
Who rip and chop and slice
For crimes beyond imagining
It's time to pay the price
You better step back son
Give the man some whackin' space
You know this might get messy
Godwhacker's on the case

Its about the Bushes goin after Sadam Hussein, Run Run Run! In the begining we could to hang with the dude. ( U.S. Policy Reagan and Bush years created him) We sniff you big Tiger ( Saddam was known as the Tiger)
I don't think it was about Saddam. <br /> <br /> It IS about Osama bin Laden, who we used as a subcontractor to help get the Russians out of Afghanistan, and who we're even now chasing all over southwestern Asia. Bin Laden took the opportunity to set himself up as a minor God, marrying into half the major clans of the Taliban, showed stank attitude by setting up a nasty little killing field in the Pukthunwali, planned 9/11, and will eventually trip into the Cuisinart of American justice, to be ripped and chopped and sliced.<br /> <br /> I mean, just look at the album it's from, Everything Must Go - almost every song is about the closing-up shop days of Western Civilization from one angle to another.<br /> <br /> "Be very very quiet<br /> Clock everything you see<br /> Little things might matter later<br /> At the start of the end of history"<br /> <br /> "The end of history" was the self-satisified idiot's shorthand for the end of the first Cold War, before it became obvious that Vladimir Putin and his backers wanted to ramp it all back up again.<br />
I agree. Saddam's Chinese Calendar sign was the Tiger. delemme.com/echinois.htm
