high school band busted for dylan song

[multi]

Parents and students say they are outraged and offended by a proposed band name and song scheduled for a high school talent show in Boulder this evening, but members of the band, named Coalition of the Willing, said the whole thing is being blown out of proportion. The students told ABC News affiliate KMGH-TV in Denver they are performing Bob Dylan's song "Masters of War" during the Boulder High School Talent Expose because they are Dylan fans. They said they want to express their views and show off their musical abilities.

But some students and adults who heard the band rehearse called a radio talk show Thursday morning, saying the song the band sang ended with a call for President Bush to die.

Threatening the president is a federal crime, so the Secret Service was called to the school to investigate.

Students in the band said they're just singing the lyrics and not inciting anyone to do anything

"You might say that I'm young.
You might say I'm unlearned,
but there's one thing I know,
though I'm younger than you,
even Jesus would never forgive what you do
And I hope that you die and your death'll come soon.
I will follow your casket in the pale afternoon.
And I'll watch while you're lowered down to your deathbed.
And I'll stand o'er your grave 'til I'm sure that you're dead."
