The Mountain Goats' "Commandante" from the album Devil in the Shortwave. This song rocks.
I'm gonna drinkG more whiskey thanD Brendan Behan
I'm gonna sCend my belongings all toG Tripoli
And I'm gonnaC ride home toG California
WiDth a banCjo on my kGnee
I'm neGver gonna turn off theD television
I'm just goCnna let it run all niGght
I'm gonna plCant root vegetables oGut in the back yard
And come sumDmer, I am going to trD7eat you right
So pCut on your Chairman Mao cGoat
And lCet me clear my thrGoat
Let'sBm turn this whole townC upside down
ShCake it 'til the coins come fallingD out of its pocket
Yeah,C put on your Che Guevara pGin
CaCll the troops on Gin
We're gonnaEm sail through the night Dsky
Like aC pair of bottle roGckets
I got a grGeat big secret written dDown somewhere
I got a rCosary to protect us both fromG harm
I got aC storage locker full of Gcow figurines
And a laDundry list of grievances loD7nger than my arm
And I amC never going back toG Cincinatti
All thoseC bridges have been burned down toG the ground
I got theC jetpack strGapped to my back
And I'mD waiting for you to comeD7 around
Yeah,C put on your Chairman Mao coGat
AndC let me clear my Gthroat
Let'sBm turn this whole placeC upside down, yes
ShCake it 'til the coins come fallingD out of its pockets
Yeah,C put on your Che GuevaraG pin
CCall the troops on Gin
We're gonnaEm sail through the night sDky
