The Shah of Iran, he ran from terror

People's revolution taking over th land

It wasn't always like that



There's a new superman - Ayatollah Khomeini

Put a spell on Iran - a dark eye genie

Oh Ayatollah man - he rules the way



He's got a head the size of Hitler

And they call him Ayatollah

He's just another Mussolini

And his name is Khomeini

I'm singing

ayah, Aya-tollah Khomeini

ayah, Aya-tollah Khomeini

ayah, Aya-tollah Khomeini

ay-oh-oh tollah Khomeini

Aye-oh-aye



He does what he does in the name of religion

There are no answers, there are no questions

Makes his own rules, just another dictator

A game for fools of the gambling nature

Oh Ayatollah man - he rules the way



He's got a head the size of Hitler

And they call him Ayatollah

He's just another Mussolini

And his name is Khomeini

I'm singing

ayah, Aya-tollah Khomeini

ayah, Aya-tollah Khomeini

ayah, Aya-tollah Khomeini

ay-oh-oh tollah Khomeini

Aye-oh-aye



Ayatollah, Ayatollah, Ayatollah, Khomeini!

kho-kho-kho-meini



He's got a head the size of Hitler

And the call him Ayatollah

He's just another Admiral Tojo

and this is how the song goes

singing ayah, Aya-tollah [etc
