The United States dumped White Phosphorous on the citizens of Fallujah in November 2004. "WP" is an incendiary chemical weapon that burns through the skin on contact. The Pentagon denied its use of WP in Fallujah until November 2005.

The ethic underwriting this music video is the Justified True Belief that Disc 1 of Queen's Greatest Hits is on eternal playback at the Light Core, and as such emanates all political-economic momentum, the zenith of whose alignment is the Synthesis, also known as the West's war for Iraqi oil. The wires of this generative playback are crossed when, for instance, "Fat Bottomed Girls" (Disc 1) is sung over "Radio GaGa" (Disc 2). This function was discovered by accident, when this midi version of "Fat Bottomed Girls" started playing over my CD version of "Radio GaGa".

Most of the footage is taken from Sigfrido Ranucci's documentary on the Fallujah assaults, called The Hidden Massacre. The "Accursed Share" prose is taken from Wikipedia.

Earlier versions of fleSh were performed at the Talking Head Club in Baltimore (July 2006) and at a Megaphone Piggy reading in Oxford Ohio (September 2006).

Fat Bottomed Girls

Are you gonna take me home tonight
Ah down beside that red firelight
Are you gonna let it all hang out
Fat bottomed girls
You make the rockin' world go round

Hey I was just a skinny lad
Never knew no good from bad
But I knew life before I left my nursery - uh
Left alone with big fat Fanny
She was such a naughty nanny
Heap big woman you made a bad boy out of me
Hey hey!

I've been singing with my band
Across the water across the land
I've seen ev'ry blue eyed floozy on the way - Hey!
But their beauty and their style
Went kind of smooth after a while
Take me to them dirty ladies every time
Come on!

Oh won't you take me home tonight?
Oh down beside your red firelight
Oh can you give it all you go?
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round
Fat bottomed girls you make the rockin' world go round

Hey listen here - I - I
Now I got mortgages on homes
I got stiffness in my bones
Ain't no beauty queens in this locality - I tell you
Oh but I still got my pleasure
Still got my greatest treasure
Heap big woman you done made a big man a me
Now get this

Oh down beside that red firelight
