Shock & Awe: U.S. Unleashes M.C. Hammer
Over Baghdad

BOARD THE U.S.S. ABRAHAM LINCOLN, IN THE PERSIAN GULF -- After a lackluster start to the "Shock
and Awe" operation that promised to drench Baghdad with
missiles and napalm, the Air Force finally dropped M.C. Hammer
onto the Iraqi capitol today.
"My, my, my music hits me so hard
/ makes me say 'Oh my Lord' / thank you for blessing me / with
a mind to rhyme and two hype feet," Hammer pronounced
over his military-issue bullhorn as he parachuted into a bazaar
in downtown Baghdad.
Hammer was accompanied by his entourage,
who quickly set up a makeshift stage in the heart of the enemy's
capital.
"We really dropped the hammer on them,"
stated a grinning General Tommy Franks, commander of Operation
Iraqi Freedom. "I said hammer. Get it?"
Hammer the Obvious Choice
According to senior Air Force officers, the choice of unleashing
the hiphop rap star over Baghdad became a no-brainer when Hammer
took on Corey Feldman on the WB's hit reality series, "The
Surreal Life."
"Yeah, me and Jack was watching that
show, and Feldman seriously took, like, a 20-minute dump,"
Air Force Gen. Frank Thomas stated.
"And Hammer, he was like, DUDE, you
can't take no 20-minute dump already," Air Force Gen. Jack
Card said. "But the cool thing was, he was like, trying
to save the wuss, even when the wuss was totally cussing
him out."
"That's what we needed for Iraq,"
Gen. Thomas added.
GO HAMMER, GO HAMMER, GO HAMMER
Meanwhile, M.C. Hammer continued to bring it on -- it was soon
evident that the Iraqi will to resist was dissolving, replaced
by an Iraqi will to break it down.
Said Hammer: "It feels good, when
you know you're down / a super dope homeboy from the Oaktown
/ and I'm known as such / and this is a beat, uh, you can't touch."
By the time Hammer reached the chorus,
most Iraqis present were waving their arms in the air, just like
they just didn't care that an American entertainer had taken
their capitol.
Hammer: "Yo, I told you homeboy..."
Iraqis: "You can't touch this!"
Hammer: "Yeah, that's how we living and you know..."
Iraqis: "You can't touch this!"
Hammer: "Look at my eyes, man..."
Iraqis: "You can't touch this!"
Hammer: "Yo, let me bust the funky lyrics..."
Iraqis: "You can't touch this!"
Hammer: "Stop! Hammer time!"
