The Lyrics
Apparently, burqa-wearing is catching on among some Ultra-Orthodox Jewish women in Israel (who claim modesty laws require it, and often they wear the burqas voluntarily, without the support of their husbands!) Not only that, but apparently Lady Gaga has joined the burqa club too. http://www.zimbio.com/pictures/UL-fmmqOl9K/Lady+Gaga+Wears+Burqa+Fashion+Week There's also been a "Burqa Barbie" on the market for a while. Come, Ms. Taliban, tally me banana. Oh, that came out wrong, didn't it?
It's a garment women wore
Back in old Afghanistan
Back before the Tali tyrants' fall
Oh but now it's coming back
In an unexpected place
At the runway fashion show
And Jerusalem's West Wall
It's not just Muslims anymore
Now we're seeing a new burqa fad
'Cause though women once said it objectifies
But now they want to wear it more
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
Lady Gaga wears one now
I can't see her Poker Face
I know she wasn't born that way
And there's a Barbie in the store
Who is covered head to toe
Now what fun's a Barbie doll
When her curves are not in view?
It's not just Muslims anymore
Are we seeing a new burqa fad
Will we also see them being worn by guys?
Or would that too much, for sure?
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
Jewish ladies in the Old New Land
Now some of them are wearing burqas too
Too hot in the scorching desert sand
Ladies, take those burqas off
YOU'D look hotter with them gone
It's not just Muslims anymore
Now we're seeing a new burqa fad
'Cause though women once said it objectifies
But now they want to wear it more
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
Back in old Afghanistan
Back before the Tali tyrants' fall
Oh but now it's coming back
In an unexpected place
At the runway fashion show
And Jerusalem's West Wall
It's not just Muslims anymore
Now we're seeing a new burqa fad
'Cause though women once said it objectifies
But now they want to wear it more
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
Lady Gaga wears one now
I can't see her Poker Face
I know she wasn't born that way
And there's a Barbie in the store
Who is covered head to toe
Now what fun's a Barbie doll
When her curves are not in view?
It's not just Muslims anymore
Are we seeing a new burqa fad

Or would that too much, for sure?
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore

Too hot in the scorching desert sand
Ladies, take those burqas off

It's not just Muslims anymore
Now we're seeing a new burqa fad
'Cause though women once said it objectifies
But now they want to wear it more
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
The burqa's on the rise
The burqa's on the rise
It's not just Muslims anymore
