Loving Zayed

The boys at Or Does it.. are reporting of an austrian pop hit written as an ode to the late UAE leader Sheikh Zayed. The lyrics are just, well, just a little too much: For all the visions you believed in For the goals you have achieved And for the peaceful ways you chose The country flourished like a rose For all the good things you did start We want to thank you from our hearts Your name will echo in our heads A name we never will forget Zayed LOL! They think I should write their next single, "an ode to Mubarak", and I would agree, but i am not sure i am talented enough to write such a song, so i may need some help. Anyone has any idea of a way to start the song? Lyrical submission will be accepted in the comments section.

I would not even attempt to compare Zayed to Mubarak. Are you kidding me?!

Zayed deserves so much respect.

Come on, Sam, Hosni is a great name to riff on. There was that song by the Cardigans eight years ago called "Love Me." Try working "Hosni" in instead and the chorus looks something like:

Hosni, Hosni, say that you'll reform me.
Hosni, Hosni, say that you'll need me.
Hosni, Hosni, pretend that you vote for me.
I don't need anyone but you.
