(Below is an anti-US rap sung by PSY in 2002)

Torture them kill them slowly those US GIs who tortured captured Iraqis
Torture them kill them slowly those US GIs who **** she-dogs and he-dogs
Torture them kill them slowly and their daughters, mas, pas, and daughters-in-law
Torture them kill them slowly to the fatal consummation of their ******* pain
