Something For Kate - Rock the Casbah lyrics

1, 2 Now the king told the boogie men You got to let that raga drop The oil down the desert way Has been shakin' to the top The king, he drove his Cadillac He went a-cruisin' down the ville The muezzin was standing On the radiator grille Shareef don't like it Rock the Casbah Rock the Casbah Shareef don't like it Rock the Casbah Rock the Casbah By order of the prophet Oh, we ban that boogie sound Degenerate the faithful With that crazy Casbah sound But the bedouin, he brought out the electric camel drum The local guitar picker got his guitar-picking thumb As soon as the shareef had cleared the square They began to wail Shareef don't like it Rock the Casbah Rock the Casbah Shareef don't like it Rock the Casbah Rock the Casbah Now, over at the temple Oh, they really pack them in The in crowd says it's cool To dig that Casbah thing But as the wind changed directions And the temple band took five The crowd, they caught a whiff of Of that crazy Casbah jive Shareef don't like it Rock the Casbah Rock the Casbah Shareef don't like it Rock the Casbah Rock the Casbah Now, king, he told his jet pilots "Boys, you've got to earn your pay So drop your bombs between the minarets Down the Casbah way" But as soon as the shareef had shuffled outta there The jet pilots turned to the co*kpit radio blare Soon as the shareef was outta their hair The jet pilots wailed Shareef don't like it Rock the Casbah Rock the Casbah Shareef don't like it Rock the Casbah Rock the Casbah Shareef don't like it (He thinks it's not kosher) Rock the Casbah Rock the Casbah Shareef don't like it Rock the Casbah Rock the Casbah
