The Lyrics
Forgot this yesterday: "Sabotage"
They’re a repellent crew,
Their cause unkind.
Setting off bombs is what they do. . .
Shrapnel flyin’
And people dyin’.
They’ve chosen a patsy—
They’re sending him ’round
With something that’s nasty:
A package in which a bomb is found.
Soon the propellant’s fuse
Will reach the time—
That time.
What ensues
Is, the fuse
Hits then spews
Death, folk lose lives, brought down.
But they don’t care,
The conspiracy
In London town—
They’re creepy.
In the end, swell’s the news:
End of crew’s line.
Their cause unkind.
Setting off bombs is what they do. . .
Shrapnel flyin’
And people dyin’.
They’ve chosen a patsy—
They’re sending him ’round
With something that’s nasty:
A package in which a bomb is found.
Soon the propellant’s fuse
Will reach the time—
That time.
What ensues
Is, the fuse
Hits then spews
Death, folk lose lives, brought down.
But they don’t care,
The conspiracy
In London town—
They’re creepy.
In the end, swell’s the news:
End of crew’s line.

Look, John, I know this is your favorite song in the whole universe, but why not use the Beastie Boys' song "Sabotage"?
