Oh Karoubi chelo
much too mellow

Kissed the reporter
and made her distorter

I am the Chef of the Regime.

I stew, they stew
we all stew together

     Kiss my kebab: The Supreme Leader is with me. I will not bow out or bow to Obama or touch the Queen's back. MI6 started all this controversy.

Mahmoud,

Have you been hitting on the Supreme Leaders opium pipe again?
