Procol Harum - Poor Mohammed Lyrics






Poor mohammed at the peep show
Kick the beggar down the stairs
Can't keep guard, he's old and feeble
Steal his books, burn his prayers
Poor mohammed at the keyhole
Sit him by the kitchen door
Slop his food all around the table
Let him lick it off the floor
Put mohammed in the cellar
Keep him there 'til half past ten
Ties some bacon to his beard
Let the rats out on him there

    People getting so worked up over the supposed "anti-Islam" lyrics that Reid wrote. It sure would be nice if people got that worked up over "anti-Christian" lyrics. But some people's views are "Oh...well you Christians have had your turn being No. 1...ruling everything and telling others what to do....now it's time to give these poor oppressed Muslims a chance to be heard." People don't understand that Christianity is one the most persecuted religions there is! Christians die for their faith all over the world! Tell you what....go read John ch. 15, verses 18 through 27. It's all right there.

    i think these lyrics were written by Trower, not Reid.

  8. M.... D....

    Best Procol Harum album. Loved it in 71, and still love it. Trower Power!

  9. M.... K....

    Very very good song! Mr Reid, I Agree with this words! Thanks Guys!

  10. J.... G....

    Tremendous song!

    So THIS is where Billy Gibbons got the "unique" sound for ZZ Top. He should give a writer's credit to Robin Trower.

    J.... G....

    Considering Hendrix's praise for Billy Gibbons you would have to check tour dates for Procul Harum.

    Man, the same people bitching about this song being against Islam probably didn't complain at all about the negative references to both Judaism and Christianity in other Keith Reid lyrics. I despise all religions equally, which is one of the reasons I have always been a huge PH fan. Let the rats out on all of them then!

    P.... B....

    Life is Wonderful lololol how did I know this was coming 😂😂😂 All I did was state facts but facts are “hate”. Yawn. NEXT!

    P.... B....

    @Nash Montana So what you decide in your head becomes a fact.?? There is a name for that
    ..its called being 'deluded'

    P.... B....

    Life is Wonderful You are just full of hate. 😂 😂 😂

    P.... B....

    Damn you should literate your brain to recognize satire

    P.... B....

    @Nash Montana you moron

  13. T.... L....

    MASTERPIECE!

  14. B.... E....

    Kinda Islamophobic huh?

    B.... E....

    Bloody wogs!

    B.... E....

    For good reason

    B.... E....

    Nope. Its a satire for the islamophobic culture

  15. F.... P....

    I didn't like this in 1971 and I still don't.

    F.... P....

    Where is the one word of condemnation in all the lyrics not that it could not be as you say but the author is Jewish and many Jewish people are Zionist. Zionism is the rightwing of Judaism as is the Christian rightwing doing more hating and judging than loving.

    F.... P....

    Bernard Elias Muhammed was a warlord, a rapist and a pedophile. was he not hateful enough?

    F.... P....

    historically and present day gives them the right to be haten on Islam

    F.... P....

    Fred Pearson it's a must hear in all the Muslim pubs .

    F.... P....

    @Andrew Byrne you moron

  16. R.... D....

    Robin Trower lit this one up

    R.... D....

    Didn't know he can sing. Sounds like Dylan. This Rocks!

  17. a.... g....

    good goal
