What For Darfur

What for Darfur? I don't have a Clooney.
Genocide? Who is to decide -- Say, what you know about the Congo?

What for Darfur? I don't have a Clooney.

The Western Sudan has a problem man -- It's all those diamonds in the sand!
Now rape and more we must deplore, but what for Darfur? I don't have a Clooney.

Along the spine of the Nile, a brilliant black land. Dafur, what lies beneath your dusty floors?
iron and oil, gold and diamonds they are minin' --
In precious sands
First they gotta tame those Arab tribesman

What for Darfur? I don't have a Clooney.

Genocide, fratricide, infanticide -- Sir Lanka, Burma and Eastern Chad makes me mad!
so, what for Darfur, I don't have a Clooney

(Note: Bismillah -- The above no way intends to minimize human suffering anywhere in our world)
