Here come the helicopters....second time today.....

[Richard Steele]

Everybody scatters,
and hopes they go away...
How many kids they've murdered
only God can say
If I had a rocket launcher...
I'd make somebody pay.

I don't believe in guarded borders
and I don't believe in hate
I don't believe in generals
or their stinking torture states
And when I talk with the survivors
of things too sickening to relate
If I had a rocket launcher...I would retaliate


On the Rio Lacantun
one hundred thousand wait
To fall down from starvation --
or some less humane fate.
Cry for Guatemala,
with a corpse in every gate
If I had a rocket launcher...I would not hesitate

I want to raise every voice --
at least I've got to try.
Every time I think about it
water rises to my eyes.
Situation desperate;
echoes of the victims cry
If I had a rocket launcher...
some sonofabitch would die.
