I've chosen this as my drama project and wondered whether anyone had any ideas of possible song titles and themes for the play. I only have to do a couple of scenes and a minimum of 3 songs but I'm struggling already. I'm basing it along the style of Jerry Springer the Opera etc so if you've got any ideas try and make them funny as well as factual(ish).

I was thinking along the lines of full blown musical arguements between countries etc etc. But your only real limitation is that its has to be based around real events and countries so it's pretty open.

That sounds funny, actually.

USA: We know that you have those weapons of mass destruction!
Iraq: You're only after our oil production!
USA: Well, our people do need a tax deduction...
UK: It appears that we need to force a reduction, never-mind any obstruction!
USA: We shall press to invade!
Iraq: We will impale you on Islam's blade!

France: Veeeeeeeeeto, Veeeeeeeeeeeto, Veeeeeeeeeeto!

Definitely need something about the UNs constant criticizing of Israel, the entire list of resolutions that they've passed against the nation that they made legal.

You could have rousing anthems like: "Jolt will set us free" or "Don't flame on me" or "All trolls go to Deat heaven" or even "Spammers in the hands of an angry Mod"

Of course Israel should be exempt from criticism. Naturally.

Kanabia, you should consider your career options very carefully. You may be onto something here...

Wow! I didnt know we had talented people on this forum. I'm definately using those lyrics, but I think I might leave out the techno music if its ok with you, and replace it with the French National Anthem maybe?

"We Broke Our Own Rules By Creating Israel" would be a good song.

Just a small bit of advice. If you're going to make fun of anyone, make fun of everyone. Criticize the US as much as France, and Britain as much as Iraq. This sounds like something with great potential that could be easily ruined with a blatant agenda.
