The current madness in Iraq has me on the march. The situation over there is so absurd that I sometimes wonder if it's all just a huge tournament to see how many Holy Wars can be waged simultaneously. I tried not to sound too cynical in this song, but I'm feeling fed up with righteousness and side-taking. If there is a God, I'm sure as Hell ready for him to pick a side and let us get on with things.

The Game is on the Line
3/19/06
Way over in Iraq, the game's quite a fight
Shots keep falling back and forth from Sunnis and Shiites
It's sudden death, it's do or die
It's a Hail Mary hope that God's on their side
Chorus: Dearest God in Heaven on high
Have you made your picks, it's March Madness time
The game's on the line, we're fighting to survive
Dear God, we all hope you pick our side
Way back in the States the number one seeds
Are Republican men and they're taking the lead
They're running the courts they're shooting up their bombs
They've won over the crowd which means they've won over God
Gays vs Straights, Rich vs Poor
Whites vs Blacks, which side does God like more?
We may never know but I'll make a bet
That when God makes his picks there's gonna be some upsets
