This is not what you think it's about. It's about politics & religion, Christ & the anti-Christ, & the things we do in God's name.

Story behind the song
I'm sick of politicians and religious fanatics wage wars and killing innocent people in God's name.
Lyrics
See the storm clouds rollin’ in / As the noontime sky grows dark / Watch the children run for cover / Hear the dogs of war bark / But no one listens to the Burning Bush // The bush is on fire / But the fire never burns / He’s showing us the way / But we never seem to learn / Pay attention to the Burning Bush // Burning Bush says thou shall not kill / It’s time to lay down your swords / Blessed are those who fight for peace / Heaven is their reward // solos // Hamas and Al Queda / Palestinian refugees / Out on the Arab street / They’re burning Bush in effigy / Behold our burning Bush // Burning Bush says we must strike back / War is the only way / Hit ‘em hard with everything we got / Without mercy or delay // Muslims kill for Allah / Christians kill for Christ / Israelis fight the holy war / Someday we’ll pay the price / For the horrors we all do in His name / For the blood we all shed in His name / For killin’ in the name of the Burning Bush
