Five Minutes (Bonzo Goes To Washington Song)
"Five Minutes" is a song by Jerry Harrison, Bootsy Collins and producer Daniel Lazerus, and credited to Bonzo Goes to Washington. It was released on the Sleeping Bag Records label in 1984. The song begins with the recording made of then-US-President Ronald Reagan's "We begin bombing in five minutes" joke speech, which is then sampled and looped throughout the remainder of the track. Harrison had considered the joke to be in bad taste; as he later recalled to author Dave Bowman: Everyone has the right to kid around, but that was too public.
