A song about Saddam Hussein when he started taking hostages. The song was a warning but he just didn't listen
music country rockabilly comedy oldies
Just myself singing my own songs. because I couldn't get anyone else to sing them
I have been writing songs since 1965. Some of my material has been used in several movies, one of which won the Sundance award in 1998. I like writing and doding demos better than doing live shows

Story behind the song
Just a song declaring that if Saddam Hussein kept on acting out then the US would have to step in and stop him.
Lyrics
Mad As Hell Hey Saddam Hussein, do you think you’re really so mean That you want to start this here war? Ell we heard about your poison gas, and you know what you can do with that ‘Cause we’re mad as Hell and we ain’t gonna take it no more. Well your little scheme it has backfired, cause the rest of the world is getting tired Of hostages being held behind lock doors! If just one American life is lost, My Hussein you will pay the cost ‘Cause we’re mad as Hell and we ain’t gonna take it no more. Well we’re mad as Hell and we ain’t gonna take it no more We’re tired of third world countries starting all these wars! Well now why don’t you leave your neighbors alone and send all the hostages home ‘Cause we’re mad as Hell and we ain’t gonna take it no more. (Music Break) Now it’s a fact that you’re after crude, so you’d better just back off dude Cause there’s one thing that we know for sure Now we don’t wanna have to fight with you, but we will if you force us to ‘Cause we’re mad as Hell and we ain’t gonna take it no more. Now we’re tired of playing political games, remember Granada and when we came Didn’t take us long to settle that score And just so you’ll remember it all, not long ago down in Panama We were mad as Hell and we couldn’t take it no more. Now we’re mad as Hell and we ain’t gonna take it no more We’re tired of third world countries starting all these wars! Well now why don’t you leave your neighbors alone and send all the hostages home ‘Cause we’re mad as Hell and we ain’t gonna take it no more. Yeah we’re mad as Hell and we ain’t gonna take it no more.
