We played at a talent show sponsored in part by the CIA in Warren (you can read some personal reflections here).
Your mission? Find a geographic location somewhere in the Middle East that rhymes with Falafel (Istanbul?) to the tune of the classic Ramones song Havana Affair: http://youtu.be/M6UlXZxch-A
I might try to pull this off at a future appearance.
Logically speaking, it doesn't quite fly in the chorus when compared to the original lyrics in Havana Affair, but you've got to start somewhere right? Anyhow, playful thoughts are welcome.

Destroyer on the way to _____ [Istanbul?]
I used to make a living man, selling you falafel
Now I'm a guy for the C I A
Hooray, for the USA
Baby baby make me dabke
Baby baby ____ [call me Mehde? { Mehde is a name right?}]
Went to watch a Cable Talent Show
First stop, Warren a go-go!
Baby baby make me dabke
Baby baby ____ [call me Mehde? { Mehde is a name right?}]
I used to make a living by selling you falafel
I used to make a living man, selling you falafel
Now I'm a guy for the C I A
Hooray, for ____ [Istanbul]
Original lyrics to Havana Affair:PT-boat on the way to Havana
I used to make a living, man
Pickin' the banana.
Now I'm a guide for the CIA
Hooray for the USA!
Baby, baby, make me a loco
Baby, baby, make me a mambo
Sent to spy on a Cuban talent show
First stop- Havana au go-go
I used to make a living, man
Pickin' the banana
Hooray for Havana!
