If I Had A Rocket Launcher

Here comes the helicopter, second time today

Everybody scatters and hopes it goes away

How many kids they've murdered only God can say, hey

If I had a rocket launcher, if I had a rocket launcher

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, if I had a rocket launcher

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, if I had a rocket launcher

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, if I had a rocket launcher

If I had a rocket launcher, some son of a bitch would die
