An almost dead cow, poor Pakistan, is under attack
by certain leaders, each one joined by her/his claque
Islamabad is under siege while the nation is tense
but for the army, all this makes bloody good sense

Imran Khan says, “once Naya Pakistan becomes” a fact
I will marry” and enter into a till death do us part pact
“I want to create new Pakistan not only for you
but also for me,” so that I can a gorgeous girl woo

Imran is acting like Z. A. Bhutto, whose power greed
led to horrible consequences; forcing Pakistan to bleed
Bhutto refused to accept Sheikh Mujib as the new leader
and instead opted to play the role of a hate seeder

Tahirul Qadri, a Pakistani/Canadian citizen is back
to create trouble in Pakistan by joining his sit-in pack
he wants the government to dissolve assemblies in hours 48
or else he’ll bury himself and consider it his fate

in Pakistan, Qadri is shedding tears for poor people now
but in Canada, he is facing money laundering charges, wow
he had Prophet in his dreams asking for a Pakistan ticket fare
he flew alone cause didn’t wanted to share the PM‘s chair

Imran’s immature importunity and his politics strange
and Qadri’s holy demonstrations are not a sign of change
neither of them are Che or Malcolm X or Allende type
but are simply inciting masses on personality based hype
