The hottest song in Israeli bars right now

[Gamblor]

...is from a 20 year old Israeli rock opera. It's called Mami which is basically the equivalent of "sweetie" The scene is basically in an alley where 7 Arabs confront a single Israeli woman and try to rape her.

Popular Israeli music is generally slightly deeper than the usual guns, bitches, "gotsta get paid", and weed that pretty much covers the American music scene. People here like music that carries a message, and everyone loves to scream along with the lyrics.

The song is great, but I thought many of you would find the lyrics interesting if you read between the lines a bit.

This is the best translation I could do. Obviously, a bit of the poeticism is lost in the translation. A Kazaa search of Mami by Ehud Banai will get you the song, the song itself is very Tommy-esque.

Hebrew lyrics available here if you question my translating abilities: http://mp3music.gpg.nrg.co.il/lyrics/1943.html

Arab:
Sweetie, sweetie open your legs
to seven of the oppressed, to seven of the Palestinians
Sweetie, sweetie open your legs
to seven of the oppressed, to seven of the Palestinians
Twenty years of oppression, we won't wait any more
With our erections and our semen we will liberate Palestine

Jewish girl:
Listen for a moment
Before you pull down your pants
Ishmael and Isaac were brothers, our father is the one in the sky

You were born in a refugee camp
hot in the summer, cold in the winter,
I was born in a development town
Both born the same
Like an Arab worker they exploited me
At a gas station working behind the counter
You're sad, I'm sad,
Everyone was screwed

Arab:
Sweetie, Sweetie
your story is so sad,
We're so depressed in our hearts
But we're certain
Tonight, we rescue our honour

You expelled our children
in the name of demography
You stole our fields
in the name of geography
You closed our schools
in the name of pedagogy
You called us Nazis and cockroaches
in the name of demagogy

We'll deal with you, sweetie,
in the name of ideology

Sweetie, sweetie open your legs
to seven of the oppressed, to seven of the Palestinians
Sweetie, sweetie open your legs
to seven of the oppressed, to seven of the Palestinians
Twenty years of oppression, we won't wait any more
With our erections and our semen we will liberate Palestine

Jewish girl:
Listen for a moment
Before you pull down your pants
Ishmael and Isaac were brothers, our father is the one in the sky

It wasn't my daughter that expelled your children
It wasn't my mouth, which was sealed, that called you coachroaches
It wasn't feet, my tired feet,
That walked in Hevron and Shechem (Nablus)
And it wasn't my husband, in a wheelchair
that brought you your Zionist nightmare

Arab:
Sweetie, Sweetie,
Be ruined as we are
Your leaders are our tragedy
Sweetie, Sweetie,
Be ruined as we are
Your leaders are our tragedy

The Palestinian nation aspires to freedom
Don't take this rape as if you were just one woman
Twenty years of oppression,
We won't wait any more.
With our erections and our semen we'll liberate Palestine.
