[Verse 1]
There were ten virgins who trimmed their lamps
Five were wise and five were fools
And a certain master, he had a feast
Don't you get excited, it's for a wise ones of the east
Talkin' 'bout a parable spoken from creation
Now manifesting itself, right now in this yah dispensation

[Chorus]
It's the Arab's oil weapon
It's the Arab's oil weapon
It's the Arab's oil weapon
It's the Arab's oil weapon

[Verse 2]
Ain't got no energy to keep civilization going
And by the signs of the times I know the end is showing
With all your scientific research, you never reach completion
No more trains, no boats, no planes, you got to trod creation
Only the fittest of the fittest shall survive in these last days
For everything is gonna be dried up to horse and buggy days

[Chorus]
It's the Arab's oil weapon
It's the Arab's oil weapon
It's the Arab's oil weapon
It's the Arab's oil weapon

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
You've been blowin' my mind talkin' about population growth
While the grass roots in the ghetto are having a drought
Everyday I see a sign of new pollution, which cause destruction
Here come new way to solve that solution (Yeah)

[Outro]
It's the Arab's oil weapon
It's the Arab's oil weapon
It's the Arab's oil weapon
It's the Arab's oil weapon
