CEPHUS LIKES TO WRITE ENTERTAINING SONGS. HE MIGHT GO A LITTLE FAR WITH HIS SUBJECT MATTER SOMETIMES BUT BELIEVE IT OR NOT HE TRIES TO SHOW SOME RESTRAINT.

YOU'LL BE RIGHT SOMETIMES AND WRONG SOMETIMES BUT YOU'LL GET MOST OF THEM RIGHT. WHAT SAY YOU?

Story behind the song

How else can you describe it. Furthermore the Saudis have tried to do more damage to us by ruining our economy...by raising costs of barrels of oil to $140.00 and higher. It's no secret who hates us.
