Lyrics

Iran so far

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

They say true love only comes once in a lifetime

And even though were from opposite ends of the earth, my heart tells me your the one for me.

Mahmoud.

I remember when it started, saw you on the news,

You were hatin' gays, I was eatin' food.

But I was feelin' you, even though I disagreed with almost everythin' you said

You 'aint wrong to me, so strong to me, you belong to me,

Like a very hairy Jake Gyllenhaal to me.

Mahmoud, make my heart beat right out of my chest

My heart says no but my body says yes

Nuclear threat, the only threat I see

Is the threat of you not comin' home with me

Our love for each other's like when atoms collide

Can't express how I feel

Ay yo Adam let's ride

And Iran, Iran so far away

Is your home, but in my heart you'll stay

He ran, for the president of Iran

We ran together to a tropical island

My Man, Mahmoud is known for rilin'

Smiling, if he can still do it then I can

They call you weasel, they say your methods are medieval

You can play the Jews I can be your Jim Caviezel

S&M, nestlin' when we're wrestlin'

You can be the port that I park my vessel in

So I try to mute the tv but you can still see me

With your sleepy brown eyes, butter pecan thighs

And your hairy but...

Yeah.

And Iran, Iran so far away

Come home, and in my arms you'll stay

Used to at the stars and dream

Round the world same stars were seen

And a twinkle in your eyes Mahmoud

Talk smooth to me, without a tie

Your pants high waisted, damn so fly

We can take a trip to the animal zoo

And laugh at all the funny things that animals do

Like Eugene (Levy) you got me straight trippin' boo

Hope you look in my eyes and say I'm trippin' too

You say Iran don't have the bomb but they already do

You should know by know, it's you

And Iran, Iran so far away

Is your home, but in my heart you'll stay

Your crazy for this one Mahmoud

You can deny the holocaust all you want

But you can't deny ther's something between us

I know you say there's no gays in Iran

But you're in New York now baby

It's time to stop hiding,

And start living.
