(Warren Zevon)

Nuclear arms in the Middle East

Israel is attacking the Iraqis

The Syrians are mad at the Lebanese

And Baghdad does whatever she please

Looks like another threat to world peace

For the envoy



Things got hot in El Salvador

CIA got caught and couldn't do no more

He's got diplomatic immunity

He's got a lethal weapon that nobody sees

Looks like another threat to world peace

For the envoy

Send the envoy

Send the envoy



Whenever there's a crisis

The President sends his envoy in

Guns in Damascus

Oh, Jerusalem



Nuclear arms in the Middle East

Israel is attacking the Iraqis

The Syrians are mad at the Lebanese

And Baghdad do whatever she please

Looks like another threat to world peace

For the envoy

Send the envoy . . .

Send for me
